Attended a card show in Burlingame, CA last week. They actually had 2 tables selling sealed wax. The rest were Pokemon tables.

Went to the Teammates table and got some Topps Chrome Hobby regular and Topps Flagship. The Chrome was $700 while Flagship was $200. The dealer who I know gave me a free blaster box of Topps Chrome basketball.

Freebie Box of Chrome-

KAT NY Knicks silver
Gabe Vincent RWB
Rick Barry Basketball border
Jarrett Allen RWB
PJ Washington silver
Ace Bailey activators insert

Ace was the best of the blaster. Not great but hey it was a free blaster.

I thought my Flagship hobby box was way better than the 2 chrome hobby and free blaster. Usually these hobby boxes just have relic cards. I got one that had 2 autos plus a low #'d parallel card. Cool that I got an auto in the bonus pack. True not the player you want but it's tough to get an auto in those silver packs. I noticed something different about the pack before I opened it. The ones I opened before the packs were thinner. This one was a puffier pack. I suspect it was due to the gold auto being somewhat warped and not as flat as the other chromium cards. Dealer only had 1 flagship hobby box so easy to choose from. Versus the chrome hobby. He had 10 of them. Unfortunately I picked the wrong 2 boxes.

The other table (MojoBreaks) was selling Chrome at $800 a box and Jumbo Chrome for $2,000. Really surprised at the jump. I thought when I paid $1300 for my jumbo that was high. But $2,000 is around Breaker Delight prices. Did not get anything from their table.

Anyone else from the Bay Area attend last week's show?
