No SPs, no Autos, 2 relics, 8 chrome/refractors.

Uuuuuuuggggggghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

If I were a mod here, I'd honestly ban people that want to use my forums to make claims like that.

Best BF buy was 4x 2022 topps chrome sonic lite for $23 per. I wish BO wasn’t so case centered. At one point in the sale, there were only 3 things below $100 and at least one was racing.

If you're looking for single boxes, check the Winter Sale page.

My buy list ended up being:

5 x 2018 Panini Donruss Racing Hobby 20 Box Case
2 x 2021 Topps Chrome NPB Japan Baseball League Hobby 12 Box Case
4 x 2022 Topps Baseball UK Edition 12 Box Lot
5 x 2023 Topps Series 1 First Edition Baseball 12 Box Case
2 x 2019 Panini Fortnite Series 1 Trading Cards Blister 12 Box Case
3 x 2022 Topps Rip Baseball 12 Box Lot
2 x 2020 Topps UFC Striking Signatures Hobby 20 Box Case
2 x 2022 Topps Heritage High Number Baseball Hobby 12 Box Case
2 x 2021/22 Bowman University Basketball Hobby 12 Box Case
2 x 2021 Topps Chrome Tennis Sapphire Edition 10 Box Case
2 x 2021/22 Panini Chronicles Basketball Asia Edition 20 Box Case
3 x 2020/21 Panini Chronicles Basketball Tmall Edition 20 Box Case
1 x 2019 Topps Star Wars: Resistance Surprise Pack Blaster 16 Box Case
3 x Marvel Studios Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings Hobby 12-Box Case

Oh, I forgot about my 2 Topps UK orders (applied 15% off codes to them, up to $100 off):

3 x 2024 Topps Five Star BB Boxes: $744.54
4 x 2024 Topps Pro Debut BB Jumbo Boxes: $362.82

I would've bought more than 4 Pro Debut jumbo boxes but accounts were limited to 5 boxes and ordering 4 (instead of 5) saved me a lot more via shipping cost. Didn't add the jumbo box to the FS order because the coupon only allowed you to save up to $100 per order.

Haha hell yeah. Good lesson to learn. I ripped a case of 2023 hangers at I think $5 a hanger and the best cards were a /999 nobody and a relic nobody. So much base.

Posted in the 2022 Topps UK thread but will also post here.

Ripped a second box (from my 2022 Topps UK order via BO's Black November deals) and hit a Stott auto along with a bunch of numbered cards and your usual rookie/vets. Possibly another complete set too.

That's one of the nice things about that product, I opened a case last year and got a complete set out of each box.

cruiserdaddy7 · 12-04-2024, 03:22 PM

2022 UK is a fun product. Better than the 22 Heritage high number in my opinion.

ThoseBackPages · 12-04-2024, 03:23 PM

LOVE IT!

Poor Man's Topps Blacks in that release

Haha, I've been using the base cards as package padding (for PWE/bubble mailer shipments) but I think I'll start organizing into sets and listing online.

I'm not surprised to hear, I've really enjoyed my 2 boxes. The ceiling might not be as high as 22 HHN but the floor is quite high (especially at our buy-in price via BO's BN sale).

100%! I've wanted a JRod black for a while, until I get the 2022 Update Black /71, this will do lol.

22 Japan is better BUT it wasn't priced at $50 per like 22 UK during BO's BN sale.

IIRC, 22 Japan was in the high $90s to low $100s shipped.

But yeah, I can't deny the beauty of a Cherry Blossom parallel although I never held one in-hand.

ThoseBackPages · 12-04-2024, 04:02 PM

LOVE IT!

Yea, 2022 Japan is "better", but they did not make any Japanese Topps Black parallels

xkj1985x · 12-04-2024, 05:37 PM

Anybody have any experience with this Series 2 MLB GPK stuff? At $40 a box/$400 a case, seems like it’d be a decent/fun rip for a 9 and 7 year old, no?

True but it was a boondoggle when it first released. The 1987 cherry Blossom inserts were a great new addition. Singles sold very well.

I believe there are only ?15? cards. So the novelty wears off pretty quickly. Just for fun to rip, a box would be cool

Jwax13 · 12-05-2024, 07:30 PM

Good call on the 22 HHN.

6 cards per pack/box. That would be a quick break.

My favorite purchase from BO was probably the 2021 TC NPB BB cases at $1200 per.

My favorite purchase from a non-BO store was a few cases of 2023 UD Shang-Chi for $221 per.

I saw the Shang Chi. I grabbed 4 boxes. Should be a fun rip.

So I went hard on the USA stuff. Its dirt cheap and has great names in it. If it had Logos it would sell out for 5x the price imo.

IM trying to pack pull the Auto Set, Relic Set and Blue Select /199 set. Im 1 card away from each, but Im 12 Cases in.....40 Base Autos per case on average, 63 card set. I have 10+ of some guys lol.

But I also just wanted to show off some of my favorite pulls from it
