I purchased two boxes under separate transactions. One contains the tracking and the other does not. Assuming these were shipped together?

Looking forward to receiving them!! Thanks

Darn if I would’ve know WWE would’ve been in I would’ve grabbed some of these too.

Any that you refunded that you want to sell, I’d be happy to purchase one or two.

1 would be 1st class or small flat rate. 2 would be medium flat rate.

I bought 3 boxes, here are my pulls

Box 1:

Box 2:

Box 3:

All my boxes had stranger things packs in them and my pulls were a nice sketch, two /99 hopper patches and a /99 not will parallel

I also got 2 Fortnite packs (nothing good), 1 Michael Jackson pack (no hits), 1 Topps 2018 Then Now Forever pack (no hits) and 1 Topps 2018 Wrestling Legends pack (1 Auto)

Not sure what the value of any of this stuff is, I'll start checking prices tomorrow.

The Stranger Things packs were a lot of fun to open and I'm happy with the sketch that I pulled. Overall this was a fun break, thanks Houdini!

Would those boxes be viewed as 'break even' boxes?

USPS in transit baybee! Can't wait!!

Check it out and see. The only missing info is the # of Stranger Things hobby packs - probably 12 each, half a box.

BosCardGuy · 12-09-2019, 12:52 PM

Is it Ok if we post our hits here? I just got my boxes and got some really cool stuff. And hit a dope auto in the first pack I ripped, to boot.

I'm sure others would love to see what you pulled.

Cubby5454 · 12-09-2019, 03:32 PM

Got my 4 boxes in.

No Ford here, so the odds improve a tad for those who haven't opened theirs yet.

I will get pics up when I get a chance- we are in the middle of moving home and warehouse at the same time- so really busy right now.

But, here are the notable hits:
1. Sally Kellerman inscription auto from Star Trek Captain's Collection
2. Sean Kenney inscription auto from Star Trek Captain's Collection
3. Star Trek 50th sketch of Scotty by Brent Ragland
4. Star Wars Stellar 2018- Andy Serkis /40
5. 1/1 2019 VIP (Transcendent?) Stephanie McMahon
6. 1/1 Star Wars Stellar 2018- Ian McDiarmid auto

Also got a slew of packs plus- 4 Christmas Tree ornaments and 4 candy canes.

Thanks for making a non-sport version of the mystery box Houdini.

Happy Holidays all.
Mike.

That Palpatine 1/1 may cover your 4 boxes. Nice hit.

mredsox89 · 12-09-2019, 03:43 PM

Box 51

Wrestling VIP Pack (Junk Auto, pair of blah 1/1's)
12 Stranger Things Packs (Pulled nothing)
Fortnite Pack (Nothing)
Michael Jackson Pack (Nothing)

Should have just sold the VIP pack sealed and recouped something. Oh well

Madoka · 12-09-2019, 04:18 PM

In short, I got ripped off!

I ordered four boxes and I was expecting cool stuff, but I got a bunch of unopened packs of Stranger Things, WWE, Fortnite, and Michael Jackson.

I don't remember the numbers on the boxes, but this was the actual order in which I opened them:

#1

Bulloch and Morrison Stellar 1/25
3x Star Wars Living
1 Galactic Moment

#2

Ronda Rousey Topps Transcendent
1 Galactic Moment
1 Star Trek Promo card

#3

Liv Morgan Topps Transcendent (have no idea who she is)
Morgan Woodward (some Star Trek character)
2x Star Wars Living
1 Mandalorian card
1 Galactic Moment

I thought it couldn't get any worse than this box, but I was wrong:

#4

My last box only had ONE lousy card! WTF! Not even some measly Stranger Things packs. There was a Catherine Bach 8x10 in the overall package, so I assume that was an attempt to make up for what was lacking in the last box.

----------------------

Overall, since I'm not into wrestling, this was a bust.

Now I'm going to open the Stranger Things packs that I did get hoping to salvage something from this debacle.

BTW, does any one know who this guy is?

I think he's the guy from the Shia Lebouf film, the one that really liked history?

GFD18 · 12-09-2019, 04:30 PM

I got my 1 box in today.

I am beyond disappointed with the contents. Wow. Wrestling is considered non-sports?

I opened my box prior to reading this thread. I didnt know what the VIP Silver Pack was that I had, but I figured it HAD to be something non sports I didn't know about? Since its in this non sports mystery box? Oh boy.

If the VIP pack had said WWE or Wrestling on it, I wouldn't have bothered opening it. Sure, the pack unopened might have value? But its considered the bigger content of my box and I could care less about wrestling?! Fun!

I know absolutely nothing about wrestling. Can someone at least tell me if my 1/1s are popular characters or junk? I know the wrestling auto is worth ~$12.

Box 3/200
[VIP Pack]
The Warlord WWE Auto /199
Velveteen Dream 1/1 Base
Rowdy Roddy Piper 1/1 Base

Living SW set card
Han and Greedo card (what is this?)
and a /99 base paralel from the loose Stranger Things packs

Congrats to everyone else. I hope you all had fun. Sorry to be sour.
EDIT: Great...I get to post after someone sarcastically trashes their box contents since they pulled the Ford. Awesome.

To anyone to opened the Stranger Things packs - I have been trying to build the blue upside down /99 base set forever now. So if you pulled any, PLEASE let me know

I still need 55 of them to finish my set.

Doubtful.

Rowdy Rowdy Piper is one of the 10 to 15 greatest wrestling personalities.

ForceChange77 · 12-09-2019, 04:38 PM

Im pretty nervous about opening my 1 box now. Oh well, ill see when i get home

Screw the Ford, I want the Bach

gdelan1 · 12-09-2019, 04:51 PM

Box 46
My box was a bust. I guess most of the "Value" comes from what a retail store would charge for packs, or maybe the ornament & candy cane are worth $25?

12 packs of stranger things S1 with no hits
1 pack of Fortnite, Michael Jackson & WWE. Hitless as well.

3 random Star Wars A New Hope cards?

2 living set #2 & #35 $10 total on a good day
Star Trek Barbara Luna auto $6.50-11
And,
The "big hit"
Stellar Jimmy Vee as R2D2 /25 maybe worth 20 bucks.

Total card value maybe $40

I got this Dan Tearle sketch, so that does take some of the sting off it.
