96/97 Fleer Ultra srs 1 Retail

[drobfan8]

I have slowed up big time over the last month on my collecting. But I HAD to grab this box for a bit of fun. After all, it is the most fun you can have in this Hobby. Busting.

Here is the last Fleer Ultra Box I grabbed, only difference was it was a Hobby box.

This box of retail, I crushed the odds.

Here's the breakdown.

1 x box of Fleer Ultra Retail @ 36 packs

Unfortunately most of the base was hammered by sticking together. If it wasn't the top card, chances were it got damaged.

Rookie Flashback 1:45
Ultra Decade 1:100

Full Court Trap 1:15
Full Court Trap Gold (middle Robinson) 1:180

AND!!!!

Ultra Court Masters 1:180

Had a blast.

Not too many of these around anymore.

Thanks for looking.

Got it on ebay.

Same as the other I busted a while back.

It was really cool to hit a Court Masters, the Jordan Full court trap and the D. Rob gold full court trap.

Smashed the odds.

Fleer ultra from this year and 97/98 really was the best.

Nice! Loaded box!

I might have to get myself a old school box and bust it!

I've read somewhere, place the packs in your freezer for a few mins, helps unstick the cards. I'll try and find the link, until then don't try yet

Yeah I've heard that also.

I must admit, they did seem to free up a bit after freezing. Still not foolproof but I thought it helped.

Luckily the inserts are made of a different gloss and were all freed up pretty much. The Sabonis and Perkins copped a little bit.
