Cheapo Box Break HAHA

[Jay Blank]

Just got a box of 08/09 UD MVP (retail) I paid like $20 for... (bit of fun, not expecting anything from it)

I haven't collected basketball cards since the early 90's so know nothing about this series (except there cheap lol) and there's a rookie card or collectable in every pack. So I'll post my insert from each pack here. Maybe someone will need/want some.

Scan of a few cards for those that haven't seen this set.

Good luck mate.

 

[Tom12]

[unclesteppy]

I bought 12 box's as well, have been busting them at work with the guys, while we have been working OT, everyone has smile on their fce when i rock up with a box..
will scan the best of the best at later date as well

Ok, box is busted. I'm extremely surprised how good some of these cards look for such a cheap box. I don't know (other than 1 card) wether I got any "hits" because theres no card odds I can find on packs or box. But I pulled some sweet looking inserts, Probably no value, but look nice.

Rookie cards I pulled with their draft number next to them:

Derrik Rose (1)
Eric Gordon (7)
D.J Augustin (9)
Robin Lopez (15)
Mareese Speights (16)
Roy Hibbert (17)
Courtney lee (22)
Deandre Jordan (35)
Kyle Weaver (38) - Silver Script
Sonny Weems (39)
Patrick Ewing JR (43)
Bill Walker (47)
Darnell Jackson (52)
James Gist (57)
Deron Washington (59)

Ultimate Victory Foils:

Kobe Bryant
Dwight Howard
Allen Iverson
Tim Duncan
Chris Paul
Darnell Jackson
Maurice Williams
DJ White

MVP Legends:

Michael Jordan
Larry Bird
Hakeem Olajuwon
Isiah Thomas
David Robinson
Kevin McHale

Kobe Bryant Insert Set:

Games: 44,45,70,72,75

* All these are black and grey and numbered like KB44 etc... except i got 1 white card that has no numbering or main writing on the back for game 5.. looks like a misprinted card???

Silver Scripts: (parallels?)

Carlos Arroyo
Glen Davis
Peja Stojakovic
Brandon Roy - Team MVP

These are the ones with the silver print autos on them (not real autos)

Also got 5 expired rewards cards lol

and the "Hit" of the box? LOL

Boris Diaw Game Used - never heard of him lol

But overall pretty happy for such a cheap box, cards look good, plenty good players pulled In Team MVP base like Rondo, Boozer, LeBron etc. Prolly not worth putting scans up of any, most of you guys will prolly be laughing that I even wasted my time with these haha, but was a fun $20 box

Do you mind me asking where you got the $20 box?

 

[Jay Blank]

Ebay, someone from these forums sold a case worth on there, he posted the link the other day on ozcardtrader forums. I just bought one of them I had winning bid of like $20.15. I forget who it was who was selling them, but im sure all of them sold for around the 18-22 dollar mark each.

Ok cool thanks alot, also Diaw is a pretty solid player i think he was 6th man of the year or in the running for 6th man of the year when he was at Suns, him and Barbosa off the bench were nice. Now hes a Bobcats and still has a solid role a nice big man.

Does anyone know if that kobe insert i pulled is a misprint? It looks exactly the same as the rest except it's missing all the black and grey on the front and back and all the writing on the back, it's just plain white with no number on it at all.. it looks kinda weird.

 

[AyiosYiorgos]

No its not, generally 1 per box..

[GarnettFan4Life]

Not bad! Good fun for $20!!!

 

[rainz]

you got a good lot there.
well done mate. they are a cool looking card.
i'm waiting for the postman to bring my boxes i bought off the same person to see what i bust.

I broke open a box of these yesterday and also got a Diaw jersey card! hahaha. Also, I ended up with 6 of the Kobe MVP cards and one of mine was white too, with no info on the back. Cant remember which game it was, and I figured it must have been for a game that Kobe didnt play in - except he played all 82 games in that season. I also got my box for $20 off ebay.
