Frankhoover's Ongoing Box Breaks

[frankhoover]

Hello all,

I wanted to start a thread with all the boxes that I've opened over the holidays and will be opening in the future (have 50-60 boxes still to open all ranging from 2006-2017). I will be using this thread when I open boxes instead of creating a new thread every time.

I will be listing only the hits, serial numbered cards, & better rookies (most of the base non-rookies will be donated locally). If there's anything you're interested in just let me know.

Here's the damage so far:

Interested in the 2011 Julio’s jones topps black /55 if available. Nice Shield!!!

[onyxdragon5977]

That’s a killer looking Shield!

[MeteoriteGuy]

Great hit with the Allen Frank.

Nice to see you post as well. Was wondering not long ago how your Newton Chrome collection is coming along.

[NickM]

Congrats. That Allen is a beaut.

BTW, don't feel too bad about the Panini points. It probably replaced something like a Zach Mettenberger auto.

Thank you, I'm not sure what I'm doing with the Julio right now. If you want to make an offer, send me a pm and we can discuss.

Thanks! Definitely one of my better pulls to date.

Appreciate it man! My Cam Chrome collecting has slowed down a lot. Just really looking for that Red auto and the printing plates. But I'm gonna keep busting 2011 chrome looking for it.

Thank you!

I honestly rather have the bum rookie auto than points. I don't like Panini's point system, its just lazy, imo. But, I guess I have to live with it if I want to open their products. I did try entering one of my codes earlier and it told me the code was invalid, no matter how many times I put it in and checked to make sure I had the correct code entered. I guess I'll have to call Panini about that, oh well.

Did you get any gold or purple crusade from your 2014 rookies & stars box a few days ago?

Nice hit on the Darius Slay Gold Refractor /50. I just bought one on COMC a couple weeks ago. Guy gets no notice being stuck on the Lions. Hes a great player.

Just busted a box of 2011 Topps Finest and it was probably one of the best boxes from the product out there. I've busted a few of these recently and this was the last one I had. I told myself this product has been awful to me and I'm done with it after this. But I'm sure glad though it ended on a high note.

Have about 15-20 other boxes to post, but wanted to show this one off first.

Cam Newton Rookie Red Refractor Jumbo Relic Auto #6/10
A.J. Green Rookie Gold Refractor Patch Auto #15/25

Also decent some decent base cards
RC Base: Newton, Dalton (2x), & A.J. Green
