hope you stopped after ripping 1 box. Nice break, Id probably stop right there while you were ahead.

I'm done. Don't have the money to buy as many boxes as some do. I'm not mad but thats the only one I have.

I thought that was the one people use. I guess maybe its just my brother and I when we watch his clutch at bats.

Agree, the auto's in this product don't add up unless you hit the case hits which are the dual s and triple autos. Why number a hit if it is #'d/1166 (I hit a Adam Rosales GU Bat Auto #/1166) Not happy and at $100 a box I'll wait for this product to drop down to the $85 range where it should be.

Anything in my tradelist for Crain or Wimmers?

Sorry nothing caught my eye.

UPDATE:
I went back to the LCS and showed him the results. while I was there I picked up the last 4 packs of Platinum from the box on the counter. I pulled a Tyler Skaggs auto.
I know the prices on ebay are super low but from what I have read and heard he is one of their pitcher prospects of the future. I'm stoked about it.



Other than that not too much. Austin Jackson Ruby Parallel, Daniel Fields Xfractor, Yasmani Grandal Base, Brandon Beachy RC and Jarrod Parker base.

I have another nickname for descalso now lol. The guy on sportscenter just called him David Dekalso on the #1 Top Play of the night.

[mikecancelliere]

Nice pull. I'd say you did pretty well

[Abracadaver]

Thanks. I'm happy. I'm going to quit there and probably just buy a couple loose packs here and there.

Did you see the superfractor patch auto of him?

I know, I was disapointed with this patch auto. Maybe Topps wanted to screw the people selling "hot packs" on ebay. "You could pull a $2.00 card! eh, eh."
