instead of doing a list of what i get, ill just scan the Top 8 from 12 blasters...looks like my 2 boxes got separated in shipping, so i only got 60 in today...anyway

Round 1

that Gracie Gold didnt scan very nice, its HOT PINK with BLUE not a dull pink

too bad Kikkan Randall isnt a top seller, way too many of her autos already...
 
Nice stuff, don't know the athletes much but getting decent cards of the ladies you like :)
 
terrible doesnt even begin to describe how bad this one was...12 boxes, 1 auto, no relic parallels, complete junk...at best i can probably get $25 out of the hits...OUCH

the 4th group really was bad, but the 5th group was stout...finally pulled some Wagners...hopefully the next batch has a couple Lindsey Vonn, Meryl Davis, and Gracie Gold...i think Gracie is the only auto i have yet to pull...so there is that...
 
alright, sleeved all the parallels/inserts...im 3 short of having a relic set, which I think I can get a few bucks for 32 cards, I technically have one, but I want a regular base, not a mixed with medals...hoping the UPS dude shows early, like before noon, so I can bust before I have to start cooking dinner...

all my stuff is currently listed, first round of Olympics stuff ends Friday and will get recycled with quite a bit of new stuff Saturday afternoon...if I don't complete my Gold parallel set, ill just break it, I think I need 4, so ive got a decent shot with what should be 60 arriving tomorrow...unless something real goofy happens in the boxes tomorrow, I wont be able to make a full auto set...that wasn't really my intent at the start, but had I kept everything I would be pretty dang close, provided none of the stuff listed now gets hit, then I could likely make a mixed metal set...having some rare sets would definitely help me make some coin back...I don't believe a relic set has been listed, 2 Heritage sets (which I have at least 2 maybe 3 already, so I could easily be at 5 after tomorrow), those have been listed twice and sold twice for $65...selling things like that will get me to recovery pretty quick...

up to 60 parallels/inserts with bids now...that makes me happy, do this a couple times and ill be in a good spot
 
the last 60 are here, and i mean LAST 60 since i bought out the guy that ive been getting them from as he had them at a decent price

got 2 of the 7 Gold Parallels i needed

whats worse than a box with a relic?

a box without a hit...

and worse than that?

two boxes in a row without a hit...

that makes 4 so far out of the 300+

n7.jpg
 
well that didnt work...

n10.jpg


no Gracie Gold autos in 360 boxes...i guess i can hope that Topps replaces the 5 boxes that didnt have hits and get one there?...also no 1/1s, no gold parallel hits today, pretty disasterous...
