Yeah it is thanks mate!

Read the packs and the chances of getting a relic or an auto even if you buy a case of this stuff is very very small. Some relics are like 1:29,331 for example. The way it should be!!!
 
Fun to watch and curious to see some pics... with all the Brand issues in NBA, i might start looking at MLB instead
 
Really nice work really. Its been a good long time sense I buster a box of Baseball and to be honest, I love the assortment you got in your box. NO GU or Autos, but its time to really get into the chase cards as those Mantles are worth a far bit per card. $4-$5 per and the fact you received 4 or 5 numbered gold cards is a good show.

Over all, I would say you did very well. Nice seeing the hobby going back to basics.
