I'll keep it short and sweet.

My order was as follows:

2 x 2011 goodwin champions (something different)
2 x 2010 ultimate
2 x 2010/11 totally certified
1 x 2010/11 national treasures

also got a free box of 2007 baseball sp rookie edition - pulled a hunter pence rookie auto for anyone who cares. meh.

ok, so the goodwin was an absolute disaster. got autos of johnny miller (golf) and billy sims (football) plus 4 junk jersey cards from other sports also. I knew there was a variety of sports involved in this product, but i really thought there would be a bigger hit in at least one of the boxes than a $7 auto. junk. don't buy it.


onto the ultimate next. first box was excellent - derrick rose on card legends auto (not numbered)!!! very happy with that pull and pretty much makes up for the terrible goodwin boxes.

second box - c laettner ultimate all time draft auto /75. also an on-card auto which is nice (and unexpected). very impressed with my first boxes of this product. sure its hit or miss, but i definitely hit! ;)


next we have totally certified.

box 1 - richard hamilton green patch 1/5. pretty crappy patch to be honest but a nice low number.
elliott williams rookie auto jersey /599
hassan whiteside rookie auto jersey red /91
gerald henderson totally red auto /99 (beat the odds with 3 autos, but seriously, these 3 all belong in the d league)
david lee red jersey /249
james harden fabric of the game jersey /299
rest base and junk parallels

box 2 - a bogut totally red auto redemption
b diaw totally blue jersey /99
j terry totally red jersey /249
j redick totally red jersey /249
shaq totally blue base /299
tmac totally red jersey /249
e turner rookie auto jersey /599
g hill totally blue base /299
other junk base and junk red cards

Certified is pretty cheap and nasty if you ask me. The cards feel really cheap.


lastly - national treasures. here are all the cards:
luol deng base /99
armon johnson rookie non-auto /99
richard jefferson jersey /99
walt bellamy base /99
stephen curry nba gear triple jersey /25
daniel orton nba gear triple patch /49
mo williams base auto /99
landry fields nba gear triple jersey auto /30
tyreke evans colossal jersey /99
redemption - tony parker century signature materials /25
luke babbitt rpa (excellent 4 col patch) /99

pretty much the worst box of national treasures imaginable. i guess its nice to pull a rpa, but couldn't name many players on the checklist with less upside than freaking luke babbitt. for a $435 USD box, there just shouldn't be boxes in existence this bad in my opinion.



all in all this was a brutal break. the only shining light was the ultimate. everything else was horrid. but, we live and learn. ;)

thanks for looking! i'll try to put a couple of pics up tomorrow of the main hits. I'll probably be selling some at some point down the track, but not in the next week as i'm really busy atm.

cheers!
 
mate I totally agree with you about bad boxes. I have seen more bad national treasure boxes out there then good ones thats for sure. A fewyears ago I bought a box of SPX which was the most expensive box at the time only to pull a travis hansen rookie redemoption that had expired..... and it was still the best card in the box. :(
 
bad luck mate rose definatly the highlight totally certified is a glorified season update the only thing going for it is the hrx horrible design, feel, and look imo.
 
Yeah my NT box was very sloppy too man, i was at least expecting a patch and got S**t all. For some reason i think its only worth while getting a case of NT.
just my 2 cents
