Kind of a big deal but just hoping that maybe that will ship separately??

I've got you no matter what. Sorry.

We did ship it to the correct address - this one is just the usps.

Yep. Totally understand that all you can do is drop it off and hope for the best. USPS is no bueno these days…so many mistakes lately.

Apologies. When my staff grabbed the hits from my office, they left the one-touched cards because they thought it was a stack of unused ones. I leave a new one on top of the stack so the sticker doesn't come loose.

Psh. None of those cards would be worth freaking out about if they were missing from your package.

Nothing quite like the pain experienced by spending $1734 on one base Brock Wilken auto. Gonna be feeling that one for awhile. I've noticed throughout breaks he seems particularly hard to hit.

If I could "like" a post on this site, I'd love this one.

Thankful that everything worked out but also COMPLETELY understand how this could happen, having just found a missing stack of "cards to be graded" that I put in a box of card savers underneath a stack of... card savers.

Gladiator Spot was interesting in how spot-on it was in terms of collation.

Based on the odds I expected 110 base, got 111.

Expectations were ~39 #'d parallels. Got 39.
Mini Diamond: odds said 24, there were 27 +3
Gold: odds said 8, there were 8
Orange: odds said 7, there were 3 -4
Red: odds said maybe 1 and there was 1 (and it was Elly!)

Expectations were 16-17 Autos and there were 18.

Base Autos: Odds said 7, there were 10 +3
Gold Autos: Odds said 3.5, there were 2 - 1.5
Orange Autos: Odds said 5.7, there were 6 + 0.3
No Red or Super Autos.

I beat the odds on autos by 1 and got an extra base but these were almost perfectly collalated/seeded based on odds.

I had 100 cases of blue paper, 100 of yellow, and 50 of orange, and the collation to odds was within a couple of cards for me also. It was a total yo-yo throughout the break - I had something like a five case stretch in the back 50 (when I had the oranges) where I got like one card - but the end result was pretty spot on. Especially since houdini found my Elly now :P

This might have been covered at some point -- but was there a reason some dudes got ~150 base chrome per 50 while others got ~300?

Was it just collation? or did I miss something on the odds?

White Sox guys if you ever need a buyer I'm your guy.

I have yet to pickup my shipment from my dad's. He says I need a wheelbarrow for all my mail there. I keep saying "just a few more should be coming then will slow way down...".

Received a nice Top 100 Bowman set plus four parallels from it for my skunked auto spot, thanks a ton! The ironic thing is my guy isn't even in the Top 100.....
