$700 worth of Heritage Retail...great return!!!

zac949 · 06-28-2017, 11:28 AM

I was on the hunt for 2017 Bowman Chrome Mega Boxes and hit 10 Targets driving through Dallas on the way going back home. Needless to say I'm 0-10 on finding Mega Boxes. I picked up several Heritage boxes instead. When I got to my destination I decided to continue picking up more heritage since it was growing on me. I had a pretty good return on investment.

Great break! Happy your not from Savannah, headed to find some before work today

stlfan78 · 06-28-2017, 12:09 PM

what did the judge auto come out of. I know since they are SP they were packed in only certain heritage products.

RandyB · 06-28-2017, 12:15 PM

Very, very well done! Congrats!!!

Walmart Hanger Box. BTW I listed where all the hits came from in the thread if you're curious of the spread.

Thanks, the Judge was awesome! I was also super stoked to hit the two Throwback variations. Sick odds and I happened to land two of them.

Stech36 · 06-28-2017, 12:29 PM

You did insanely well. The judge alone, or just 1 of the throwbacks alone would've been great

awsome Ty.

congrats again

PensFan29 · 06-28-2017, 01:14 PM

Fantastic hits. You dealing the Longo mini?

chfu3030 · 06-28-2017, 01:34 PM

Don't show this dude....now everybody is going to go and clear out the local wal-marts and targets expecting the same results.
People won't be able to pay their bills, which means they can't shower, which means they'll lose their job.

Now the children can't eat....

Remember.... you did this.

Nice cards btw. Heck of a haul.

Yowzers! You killed it!!!! Great break

jonproch · 06-28-2017, 04:42 PM

Nice hits! To all those thinking this is the norm, I have spent $400 in the past two weeks on hangers and blaster boxes and got a few normal judges, one chrome and a lot of misc SP, so be warned. At least I'm helping the odds for the next guy

Boo · 06-28-2017, 04:46 PM

Lucky is what I call it.

ForzaMilan92 · 06-28-2017, 05:42 PM

I don't know what's more impressive, the fact you had the guts to spend $700 on retail, or the fact you managed to profit from it...

mike-the-ripper · 06-28-2017, 05:48 PM

Congrats on the great results

slugger82685 · 06-28-2017, 08:15 PM

So I don't think the schebler is a gray back, I remember in my case that particular card for some reason has a slightly darker stock than a lot of the cards and I had like 8 of him and they were all the same so maybe double check that one.....great break though congrats

Morgoth · 06-29-2017, 08:01 AM

If moving the McCutchen Throwback let me know

Noticed that yesterday. All the Scheblers I have from this year's Heritage look like they were double-printed and smeared on the back. Haven't found a normal looking one yet.

zac949 · 06-30-2017, 12:14 PM

The Real One Judge Auto came back a BGS 9.5/10 with (10 centering, 9 corners, 9.5 edges, and 10 surface). The Herrera came back a BGS 10 with 9.5 corners. I would've sent the McCutchen off in the batch but I pulled it after I mailed out my BGS order. I'll probably send that one to PSA. The crazy thing is another Real One Judge was graded today and it was a 10/10 Black Label. Congrats to whoever that belongs to.
