apparently not any more, it's all about buying as many cases you can and dumping them as quick as you can for whatever you can possibly make, lol.... the industry is kinda laughable to be honest. might as well be a chinese factory.

So I take it that you are eagerly anticipating that this blows up in Matt's face? I hope I'm just misunderstanding your tone. Please forgive me if I did.

Me, I'm hopeful that those who invested in this break will be more than satisfied with their ROI, and the same for Matt. He's putting a lot of money, frustration and time into this endeavor, and I'd hate to see him or his investors take a financial bath.

It's really too bad that there are those that take comfort or joy at others misfortune. I don't get that mentality. I find it petty and mean-spirited.

I think the two Russell Golds and Purple Russell are pretty solid (but yea, nothing outside that yet).

At least one happy buyer. 209 more to go.

I spent over $1000 on the Red Sox prospect autos. I got the Pat Light Gold auto spot for $66 and I have already hit one. I'll win some, I'll lose some. Regardless, a lot of fun being a part of it.

I guess I am a jerk, but would like to see him strike out on the Superfractors. Gives hope to the guys who can't afford a case or 50 at that.

No I understand this, I may be 25 but I'm one of those guys that still gets excited about opening a box but I dream of opening a pack with a super fractor or a red refractor. Or hell one of those patch cards.

I could only afford 2 boxes and that's because I sold some stuff on eBay.

I wish I was able to afford the Addison Russell or Joey gallo lots since I have a small collection of them but oh well

Maybe my 2 boxes will have something great

Agreed. I bid the exact same amount on the Gold auto + lot as the guy that won it and he received it. Don't know the technicalities of it, but figured it was a good omen I didn't win. DAMNIT!

If you had the same bid, and he bid first he would get it. He may have also been higher than you but you were the next highest bidder, which would have made it the ending price.

The thing is I didn't intend on bidding on it, but I got the base/ref/blue lot for about $100 cheaper than I thought I would so I figured I would click over. I had about 8 seconds and typed in 400 and clicked submit. Oh well.

I am amazed at the people who want him not to pull a super because you can afford only one box.

The world does not owe you a superfractor.

Agreed. Some people really are #@#@#@#@#@#@#@s.

On a side note, I still can't decide if boomo's feed is intentionally loud and awful as a goof, or if that's real.

Spends a lot of time to justify the value of the contents pulled.
