First let me say I have never gotten any IP autos before nor have I ever tried. I have an idea to get some dual cards autographed in person. I got the notion because of the 2012 EEE dual Building Block base insert card set. I really like how they look. There is already a Buxton/Correa on ebay but I'm not to crazy about the ink color and am wary about the authenticity.
Signed Byron Buxton Carlos Correa 2012 Elite Extra Edition Building Blocks Auto | eBay (http://www.ebay.com/itm/Signed-Byron-Buxton-Carlos-Correa-2012-Elite-Extra-Edition-Building-Blocks-AUTO-/221360664573?pt=US_Autographed_Trading_Cards&hash=item338a1faffd)
Can someone let me know whether you think they are real or not.
I was considering the drive to Dayton in July to watch the Dragons play Cedar Rapids and Quaker City to try and get a nicer signed version. Is it easy to get Buxton and Correa's autos at away ballparks? Any info would be helpful!! Thanks and sorry for the long read.

Cedar Rapids (Sat, Sun, Mon) and Quaker City (Wed, Thurs, Fri) play three games each at Dayton, what is the best way to get their autos? As well which of the three days would have the best chance for success?

I got them both at kane county this year, buxton is very hard to get, he never signs and just ignores everyone. Correa at least in the summer signed all the time, i think i got him 4 different games when they were visiting kane county this year

Most likely to start in New Britain. OP, You may have a good chance to hook up with someone to do a 50/50. I helped some people to do the COMC for Florida State League players.

Thanks for the info forgot about hearing he will be moving to New Britain. I guess I will have to see when the season starts if I can get in on a 50/50 to get this project done. I think this card would look sick with silver autos, and I would like to get them numbered on card to five; for me and my buddies I collect with.

Actually New Britian plays Akron in August which is closer, so I have a chance to get Buxton with any luck!!! But I probably will go and just enjoy the game and end up trying to 50/50 if anybody is interested.

I'm hoping to see Buxton once or twice when he comes with New Britain to Portland! Hope to get a card or two signed.

He was really hard to get at the games I went to this summer, but hopefully he signs more now than he used to or its going to be hard

How did you get his auto? Did you stay after the game or get it before? Another thing is where at in the ballpark is the best place to try? Thanks for the help
