My "box-break" mail

[ewilkens]

I really had the itch to buy a box of something, but have been getting nothing but horrible "hits" no matter what I buy. So I decided to switch it up and take the $110-120 or so I'd spend on a box or two and buy some random tradebait, b/c I couldn't do worse this way.

Here's what I ended up with:

DJ White 08-09 Topps Photoshoot Auto

06-07 SPGU Auto/Patch Luther Head /10
(sick 3 color patch - with 4th color jersey) super nice card of a marginal player

Larry Bird 06-07 E-X Jambalaya
(i did pull a Duncan recently as my best hit in 6 months, and they are super sweet, so i got a better player)

David West 03-04 Bowman Signature RC Jsy/Auto /1245

David West 03-04 SP Authentic RC Auto /1250

and lastly something for my PC:

Matt Forte 08 Topps Chrome Auto

that may not be tradebait, but it made this card expendable (so I didn't ruin my idea of $110-120 on tradebait)

Forte 08 Prestige Auto /250


but singles won't totally cure the itch for busting packs so I ended up with 2 blasters as I waited for these to arrive (b/c I don't have willpower, lol)
I got 08-09 Hot Prospects and 08-09 Topps Treasury.. here's the notable cards:

Iverson Hot Prospects Jersey

Kobe Topps Treasury Jersey

OJ Mayo Treasury RC Refractor /2008


thanks for looking

I'd say you definitely spent your money well. That Bird is sick! And the Luther Head is AMAZING, especially for what you said you paid for it.

 

[GotGibson?]

Sick stuff! I like the D.J. White.

All of those are nice "hits"! I'm sorry you have been having bad box breaks. Hopefully your luck will change, but in the meantime these are nice cards.

that was the plan. I ended up with 6 "hits" as opposed to 1 or 2. I feel better about it.

Thanks for the comment.

only the forte prestige is available, the other was a pick-up that made the prestige expendable. I'll check your bucket later (when I can) for the others.
