I love telling this story
![]() I was 13 at the time. 2010-11 R&S basketball just came out. At that time I didnt know the difference in hobby boxes and retail boxes. Didnt even know hobby boxes existed. So anyways, it was Christmas time and a few family members gave me gift cards to walmart and needless to say I spent about 80 dollars on blaster boxes that day. 2010-11 products had the 2 mountaineers in it Da'Sean Butler and Devin Ebanks (as we remember, Da'sean had a knee injury he suffered in the WVU vs Duke final four game, needless to say his career ended and now he is with the wvu coaching staff) So I bought a blaster box of R&S since it had 1 hit. I wasnt big on basketball (only college basketball) Opened the box and this was pulled, needless to say I jumped up and down! ![]() /299

I just gave up. I tally'd the amount I'd spent trying to get lucky and I could have just bought the cards I wanted LOL. Only singles for me now.

I remember opening up a box from a fresh case the day 2010 Greats hit the shelves. This card literally was in the 2nd pack in the box.
![]() Now, it is not my highest valued pull (I did a lot of Exquisite, etc.), but from a $2.99 per pack product, I'm not sure I can do better. |

Lol my best pull is probably a LeBron James 2012-13 prestige BASE card. I don't do packs/boxes AT ALL. I'm wondering if I should try some out now

Tried to sell this case on eBay for a few weeks. Came very close to making deals with a few different ebay members. Even had offers within $100 of what I would accept. Ended up pulling it off eBay and decided to bust. Glad I did and Sold this card for 4x my asking price on ebay.....

I was probably about 14-15 at the time when I truly started getting back into the hobby (before my latest hiatus)...went to a card shop in the mall..bought like 3-4 overpriced packs of Sp Authentic 06/07. One of the players I really enjoyed..because he was Jewish like me...was Farmar. I'm sitting there in the mall ripping these packs open...and end up pulling a gold foil auto /25!!!! Definitely was awesome for me..especially since he was one of my fav players at the time!

I have two favorites. I PC Kobe and trade or sell just about everything else. I hit 5 Kobe autos between December 2012 and March 2013 but these two stand out.
The story goes like this. My wife had asked me what I wanted for Christmas last yr. I said a box or two of Prizm if she could get them reasonably priced (If you remember, this stuff took off due to the gold prizms). My LCS guy ended up selling her 2 for under what we set as our Christmas limit. Come Christmas day I unwrapped these and the deal was that I could bust ONE box in the morning and the second box when we went home. THIS was in the first box. It is the Prizm /25 version. ![]() My other favorite pull is this. Another instance of my wife grabbing wax. This came out of the regular Panini (like $60 per box). The product was junk, all-in-all but this is /5.
