Wax Heaven isn’t the first baseball card-related Blog and it won’t be the last. My goal is to be the best . I am not some stuck-up, arrogant blogger who is looking for the next gig. I am a collector not much different than most of you. I am also a father and husband who sometimes has to sacrifice buying the big money releases in order to pay my ever-growing list of bills but that has not stopped me from writing as much as humanly possible (with a real job) about our beloved hobby. I have done everything from product reviews and card shop directories, to player rants and deep stat analysis.
It is clear to me that it has worked when I look at the page stats and see over 4,000 views in Wax Heaven’s first month, not to mention over 100 blog comments, and best of all, being accepted into the community of collectors and fellow baseball card bloggers. If you have a new blog you want me to check out by all means let me know. I respond to all my e-mails and comments. If you offer true baseball card content you don’t even have to ask me to add you to my blogroll. You will find yourself there almost immediately. I want everyone’s blogging experience to be a successful one.
With that, I would like to say thank you for making Wax Heaven a success. You can expect a bunch of new blogs, reviews, box breaks, and much more to come in 2008 and beyond. As always, if you need to contact me, you can e-mail me at WaxHeaven@Gmail.com.
Keep collecting, make sure to bookmark WaxHeaven.com, and stay tuned for a lot of big surprises in the near future.

Good luck with the baseball promoting, 4k hits in the first month? I want to know what your secret is.
Wow. Keep up the great work!
Dear mario: — can you please email me the article that was recent about the postal employee stealing the rare baseball card. I wanted to show my friend who is in the PO and an old collector. I think your site is great, and im new to it. I have been a collector for about 30yrs.
Thanks…. Joe Dean

Excellent job Mario i just returned to the hobby and i love your blog. I’ve been reading your blog for a month i think and you already make me a Marlins fan. I’m mexican so i already like the marlins because of Cantu and Amezaga who i hope stay there for a long time but your posts just made me like the team even more. By the way sorry for my english.
Greetings from Hermosillo, Mexico
Ruben, glad you like the site. Cantu & Amezaga are great players and make Mexico look great. I think both of them will be playing in the World Baseball Classic, too.
Did you have to pay to build this website?
Just for the domain name.
this site is awesome and i love to see whats new
thank you Mario!
Terrific site! Just returning to collecting, and thinking about blogging. Thanks.
Thanks for the trade connections bro! This past week a lot of hard to find stuff has found its way into my mailbox!!

Hi, this isn’t really a comment but just a question about your question from the wordpress support forums. Have you been able to receive comment notification emails after you have approved a comment? I have not received any and you were one of the only people that seemed to be having the same problem. I contacted support, but nothing back yet. Thanks!
Mario,
Like a few others on this blog I am getting back into collecting. Subscribing to quite a few other collecting blogs I find this one to be the easiest to read and follow.
I look forward to reading more. Keep up the good work.
Mario I need your mailing address. I recently picked up a nice piece that belongs in your collection. It was only available to Marlins execs. I just happen to know the person who made them and snagged one for you.
Nice site keep up the good work
hey mario how do i get a little avatar pic?
