[WillyBeamen]

Picked up 1 Case of 2017 Leaf Best of football & 2 Boxes of 2009 SP authentic Football.

[Zeldafanatic15]

Not a huge spender, don't buy cases, but did go for smaller fun rip boxes.

2#@x2015 Panini Cyber Monday Pack
4#@x2014 Topps Turkey Red Football Box
1x2013 Panini Rookies & Stars Football Hobby Box
4#@x2017 Panini Father's Day Multi-Sport Pack
6#@x2017 Panini Father's Day Football Pack
2#@x2013 Panini Crown Royale Football Retail

Also picked up from another site
2016 Panini Classics Football 24-Pack Box
Was ordering some other stuff, didn't even realize it was retail and not the hobby box, but not too concerned as it was cheap and I'm working on the base set.

Other than that, got 4 boxes of Super Break Heirloom Hockey, a few non-sports boxes, plus a box of Snapshot Archives from Topps for the Judge promo. Overall very happy with my purchases, and should have a lot of fun.

1 Case of 2013 Elite
20 Boxes of 2014 Turkey Red

Just under $400 on football

[frankhoover]

Nice pickups everyone. Got 8x boxes of 2011 Chrome myself. I'm hoping to still find a Newton Red auto out there.

[The Accountant]

Where were the collector's boxes? Didn't see that. That is a deal and a half!!

As for those who got a case of Prizm Draft... always one of my favorite rips at that price. I've opened 3 and a half and its always fun, just be ready to take a hit (some cases suck). I always love them though.

I decided to go out and buy a card on my want list instead of black friday shopping. Got a Wentz/Jeffery 1/1 shield card. Good luck with the breaks all. Make sure to post.

They were on another site, probably should have got a couple, great deal. Had a lot of fun with the one I had gotten at retail when they came out.

GL. Really considered grabbing some Chrome years myself but didn't pull the trigger.

I saw them on another site too

I was considering them, but passed just because I saw another deal which I thought was much better value... well then

I just overall really like Optic.

I pick up stuff throughout the year when I see a great price. Only thing I bought today was 20 of the Turkey Red boxes. My son and I spend Christmas through New Years ripping boxes. This years haul:

1 case 2011 Certified
1 case 2012 Momentum
1 case 2013 Prominence
1 case 2014 Select
2 cases 2015 Prizm Draft (we cheated and busted 1 case already. Brutal.)
1 case 2016 Immaculate Collegiate

Should be a fun few days.

[jiggidy]

Here is what I picked up. Didnt go crazy:

2006 Playoff Contenders
2013 Panini Prestige
2013 Panini Rookies & Stars
2014 Topps Turkey Red
2015 Topps Chrome
2015 Topps Chrome Mega Box

I agree, 5 autos in the checklist will pay for the box + the bronze parallel + the bronze jersey + the base rated rookies make it an easy choice for me. Can’t wait for next week!

[Sushiyoshi]

Are there any guarantees in those collector boxes?
$30 now at other site, not sure if that is still a good deal if no guaranteed hit.

Yes, one bronze auto and one bronze jersey guaranteed.

At 30, it’s ok....retails for 50.

I've already cracked 28. No Wentz autos, but hit two Dak's so far!

Tons of base/parallels though.

Good luck on yours!

Nice! Those base and parallel will definitely help the break value!

[Chris P]

Haha! Nice!

I'm debating whether to grab more hanger boxes. They're in the cart, just haven't hit the button.

[Siberian13]

Haha, yeah I grabbed 8. Had to look at all sites.

[Chris P]

Ok..so after that purchase now I'm done...i think...hahah

[rngrdanny22]

Made a nice sale, so bit the bullet and grabbed more hanger boxes.

2016 Optic Football Collectors Box - 41x - $984
2016 Optic Football Hanger Box - 94x - $611

$2284 total.

[Sushiyoshi]

Grabbed 30 Collectors and 5 hangers. There was only 6 hangers left so they may be sold out.

[messier2]

What’s the draw with the hangers? Is it the low buy-in or something else?

Low-price and combined with (from what I can tell) higher chances to hit base cards of the bigger names.

Each hanger seems to have four purple parallels (with two Rated Rookies) and two additional base Rated Rookies.

From the Collector's boxes I've opened, there's typically 6-8 Rated Rookies in the whole box.

Honestly, I'm probably not going to crack those open anytime soon.

Ah, good to know. May consider it in the future.

[Cyphon25]

I ended up picking up 5 boxes of Turkey Red and 2 of the 2011 Topps Chrome after reading this thread. I hate you all for being bad influences.

[slugger82685]

Anyone get their tracking from BO? Says my package should be delivered on 12/4

My BO tracking has been trickling in slowly. I believe they are working through the weekend to get the shipments out asap.

Kudos to them!

[Zeldafanatic15]

One of my packages arrived Saturday, and just got notification on another. Still waiting on three more. Helps I live across the river in MD

Yeah close proximity is helpful, I’m on the other side of the country lol

[mike1498]

My 20x Turkey Red Boxes are supposed to be here on Tuesday
Also bought a box of 2015 chrome

[Sushiyoshi]

2013 Contenders FB for $350 a case. Really thinking about it.

[Sushiyoshi]

Decided to go ahead and picked up a case. Will be my first case of Contenders.

[Spartyon]

Anyone else not receive tracking info yet? I know they are busy but for a Friday order I figured I’d at least have a tracking number by now

[Sushiyoshi]

They have thousands of orders to process. Probably wont see one until at least tomorrow.

[Cyphon25]

My 3 orders are all still just processing.

My tracking numbers have been sent to me through the weekend. I received 3 packages so far.

8 of my 9 orders have shipped.

Good luck. I thought about it too! But, decided to buy more collectors boxes instead!

[jaj94]

Should I pick up 3 2015 prizm rack boxes for $73 dlvd?

[gorillaz]

God, i have to wait till Thursday and Friday for my crap. Damn me being in Texas

[Sushiyoshi]

I am in CA. Wont see my boxes until end of next week probably.
My Contenders case from other site will be in on Friday though. Not sure if I want to keep it sealed or open it. Usually takes me 1 min to decide once I see the packages and cant rip them fast enough. Haha

[Sushiyoshi]

Anyone else receive their Optics yet?
Want to see more boxes opened and decide if I want to open mine.

[hanstess]

Looks like 2/3 of my packages will be here tomorrow after some delays. Gonna be fun ripping a case for the first time...

[Sushiyoshi]

Got all my Optics in yesterday. Only opened 5 hangers so far. I think these are good deals. Only two vet base in each box. The rest of the cards are either vet refractors, purples, Rated Rookies, or rookie. Best hit was Zeke RR holo.

Gonna open 10 Collector's tonight and hold on to the rest. May flip them once they dry out.

My order from BO should be here tomorrow if there is no delay. Only like 5 boxes of baseball and football tho.
