Mine were supposed to be delivered today, Now it is changed to tomorrow. Of course I'm going away for the weekend, so they will sit on my porch overnight.

Two of my three boxes showed up today. I ripped just one so far. All base in the base chrome packs and my three hits were Blue (150) Brandon Crawford, Future Star Auto Luis Gil out of 99, and Purple (250) Shohei Ohtani.

Thank you, it’s not terrible with centering either. Top/bottom isn’t the greatest but better than some. I figured I can sell this and that would cover most the cost of the two boxes.

Or heck, I could just buy the card I want..

And then sell three boxes and shelve the rest.

Decisions...

A good number of boxes were delivered today.

Regarding the case from MLB Store NYC, it's sealed with regular tape. Interestingly, it looks to still be a sealed case based on a cursory glance (it doesn't appear to be resealed because I don't see any torn bits of cardboard [which would usually be the case had they removed the original shipping tape from Topps]). Just got home from work and am pooped so I'll examine it meticulously later. They didn't double-box it so it's a bit banged up (and it had Topps information on the outer box, basically a target for theft, fortunately that wasn't the case).

Supposed to be delivered today…now Sunday.

These are moving roughly 100 miles per day.

Sonicfractor shipping should be much faster.

Fedex is horrible. There seems to be little logic to their smartpost lanes.

Just ripped 3 boxes!! The cost with shipping/taxes for the 3 boxes was around $170.

I didn't hit any monsters but I certainly hit some decent cards and absolutely destroyed the odds. I had A LOT of fun!!

To start, I hit 2 Wander base RCs from my non-Logofractor base packs.

Regarding Logofractors, here's the notables:

- Wander RC
- Pujols
- Edward Cabrera RC gold /50
- Max Muncy green /99 auto
- Byron Buxton green /99 auto
- Eloy Jiminez green /99
- Yadier Molina pink /199
- Starling Marte pink /199
- Jake Burger RC purple /250
- Tyler Gilbert RC purple /250

The Logofractor cards looked nice from online images but they look SO MUCH sweeter in-person. I'm really happy with this product and I'll be going for the complete set (with or without the SP RCs).

Yeah FedEx is a nightmare, my favorite is their ridiculous estimates which are NEVER accurate. Mine were supposed to arrive Thurs even though they hadn't even left Florida yet...then they said Friday even though I knew that wasn't happening either (it didn't, STILL in Florida in fact)...they've finally mosied their way up to Maryland and the current estimate is "pending"...super helpful.

Posted to my Twitter earlier tonight @kickscards_ but forgot to post it here. Shohei Ohtani Rose Gold Logofractor 1/1!

Hit it on only my 5th box in. I opened 20 more boxes after that and also pulled a nicely centered wander SP variation as well as a few vet autos. Super fun rip but I’m quitting while I’m ahead at this point
