Paid $13/box

Paid $13/box

Cool. I've seen them for anywhere from $11 to $15 a box where I live. Walmarts are cheaper than Target.

3 Gold Harpers so far out of 50. I wonder what the total print run was on these? Good luck with the rest..I have been tempted to do this in search of the Red Harper auto. If you pull a Hope Hosmer I am a buyer if willing to sell.

Will start opening the Topps packs in a bit...

[dthimesch]

I would have opened the chrome last but ugh, would have been a bit disappointing to end though. Gl on the topps.

[allstarauction]

About 10 packs into the update I already hit a Pineda Hope Blue /60, and a Hosmer Topps Update Auto redemption :)

Need to take a break and do some work.

[pskell02]

PM me a price if the AJ Cole auto is for sale.

[monkeymcgee]

Wow--nice hits in the Update

[mikecancelliere]

Nice hit in the updates. I'd be interested in Harper chromes and good please pm

[Jhollywood]

Wow $910 dollars on Value Boxes. Good Luck!! Hopefully you can move the codes quickly since they have been extended.

[winbigwoody]

I would love to trade for whatever codes you get!

[RunnersDad]

Breaking even is always good! That's what I found with my break too, pretty close to even but you come out a little ahead taking into consideration that it is a pretty fun break!

[dthimesch]

(80) more boxes ordered and will be here Thursday :)

OMG!! :eek:

[dhcollecting]

He is looking for that Harper Super...I ordered 20 boxes myself..should be here tomorrow as well.

[paul06901]

I'm a bit confused, likely because I don't really follow baseball that much ... but I do follow cards.

So almost $1000 was spent here and it looks to me like the return was absolutely awful other than the Hosmer redemption.


???

And with reselling, the amount of time going into the listing/categorizing seems incredible.



I can understand the breaks of 1-20 value boxes, but this many seems a bit insane for the time/value of not only opening but the overall time. Why not just go hobby?!
