tough to get 8 good ones again...this is terrible...when i busted my first 3 boxes a couple of weeks ago, i probably should have just quit there and bought my Gracie Gold and Ashley Wagner autos...

Jamie Anderson Bronze Relic 2 CLR /75
Jamie Anderson Silver Relic 2 CLR /50

Elana Meyers Bronze Auto /50

taking a break before i bust the second half...hopefully its much better than this first half

 

[sliqwill]

here are some scans from the opening 50

 

[onyxdragon5977]

Hey, at least they are good looking cards, right?

Nice pulls so far!

 

[sliqwill]

yeah, i really like the set design, getting ready to start busting the other half...had to watch some tv and get some food...

the Jamie Anderson auto sells better than i expected, should pull down $35-$50, the Van is going to go into my PC, not because shes a hot chick, but because she was behind the push that got womens skijump into the olympics...i already have a Lolo so that will end up on eBay with most of the other stuff...

still havent gotten my Ashley Wagner golden rainbow parallel that i need for my set of her, the best i did of Wagner or Gracie Gold was a Silver parallel...only got 1 'hot' box where it has half of the cards are Bronze parallels, and that was box 50...anyway, its time to get crackin...
