2011-12 Limited Basketball case

[EricMetcalf21]

Hi, I tried some searches instead of making this thread, was wondering if anyone bought a case from blowout lately with the special price, but cant find anything in my searches. Case is discounted about 600 bucks and is 899.

Seems like a fair deal where you going to lose about 200 max. lol

Anyone bought one recently out there and how did you do?

Or anyone pondered the thought? I like opening things that are low risk you know like topps fb jumbo stuff like that where I know I can get majority of money back. Like Prizm basketball was alot of fun when it first hit, I ended up going through about 10 cases. ha.

Thanks

I just did a case and did a lot of research on it

typically, you will find 2-4 patches per case

There will also be 1 gd active player auto and a solid legend auto

you will also have I think 1/3 chance of landing an Irving XRCOO?

base 1/1s sell very well, the card stock is thicker than the 2010 limited version

[thekiddfan]

my patches were

John Wall
DeAndre Jordan
Grant Hill Jumbo (super nasty)

Rose GU Auto /10
Harden Prime Auto
Tyreke Auto /10


Hakeem GU Auto
Drexler GU Auto 1/25
Dominique Wilkins Auto

my redemptions included

Tristan Thompson
Klay Thompson
Kawhi Leonard
Chandler Parsons
Kanter

and hit a 1/1 base George hill which paid for 1/8 of the case

its a safe product to not lose a ton but other than a rare kobe auto patch or kyrie rookie, or miracle lebron base 1/1 or something, i dunno what cards in this product would even hardly pay for a single box. obviously some but this product doesnt have a real huge hit potential. but if u wanna open something & probably not lose very much then its probably a pretty good choice.

This one is better then 2012-2013 Limited right?

[Watt]

^^ yes, 2012-13 is horrible in comparison

[EricMetcalf21]

thx kiddfan, Rose /10 gotta be a real nice hit!

Looks like your case was a nice one!

I like the idea of pulling a Kyrie, plus I just personally think that if anyone really excels out of this rookie class, Id rather have 11-12 real rookies.

Sure Kyrie in this goes for 140ish now, but ive seen them as high as 250-300, and I really think down the road with all these sets they put out in 12-13, that these 11-12 real rc year cards will be in demand.

I did a case and probably maybe back around 50-60%. Sold a Duncan Jumbo Patch /5 for $225 (which another one recently sold for like $50), Iverson Patch /15 for $55 (had an offer at $75 there that I declined and listed at auction, blah), Jrue Base 1/1 for $45, Jeremy Lin AU for $45, base lot (about half the base) for $30, and a Marcus Thornton Jumbo Patch AU + Jersey AU for $25. The veteran/legend autos sell for almost nothing. Gervin /25 - $15, Kidd /25 - $15, Tony Parker /25 - $15, Mark Price /25 - $10, have an Isiah Thomas /10 I can't sell for $15. I do have all my XRC autos left, but that's because they all sell for less than $10. Got two Tristan Thompson, three Brandon Knight, Jimmer, Tobias Harris, Kemba, Kanter, and a couple other solid ones, but no Kyrie.

Hope that helps.

(EDIT: Also FYI, if all 30 XRC autos are random, you have a 40% of pulling at least 1 Kyrie. Just something to take into account.)

Sure, I'll PM you my info. If you need scans, LMK.

[msrozen]

isn't these xrc's the one with all of the problems?

[EricMetcalf21]

you mean hard to redeem or thick and in bad shape? Not sure what u mean

The signing surface allows the ink to spread out and become fuzzy. 2011 Gold standard has the only xrc autos that had good looking draft 2011 autos. P&p and limited used the same card surface. I posted a thread about this a week ago btw.
