Box Break 16/02/2012

Here is my latest.

Got:

Free: 20 packs of 2009/10 Adrenalyn XL got few more signatures for the chase set, but nothing too exciting.

1x 2008 Press Pass Blaster (Trying to get the base set completed/and also trying to do the Blue Refractor set.

Got a D.Rose Class of 2008 insert which is always nice. And narrowed down my base and refractor set.



1x 2008/09 MVP Retail (Finishing off my base set just need a few more Legends and Rookies then it's complete. And also now have a bout half of the Kobe MVP set.)

Beat the odds in this box so can't complain.

Got a Deron Williams Gold Sig #100.

A Brian Cook/Jameer Nelson Star Combos Double Patch (Shame about the players).


AND a Kobe White MVP which are one per Hobby Box.




1x 2010/11 Classics (Not bad, a bit hit and miss. After busting this and a box of 2009/10 Classics last time I can't say I'm really that enthused about them.)

Hits:

Redemption for Dress Code Signature Jersey of Andre Iguodola nice hit but one off Kobe damn.

A Kevin Johnson Membership #499

A Dwight Howard Prime Membership #49 (Really like this one.)

And a Luke Babbitt Sig #699 (Nice Sig btw)



1x 2010/11 Playoff Contenders Patches (Loved the design of these, like the ticket stubs and of course I like shiny cards so these were always going to be a winner.)

Hits:

All Base Rookie Auto's.

Eric Bledsoe

Dominique Jones

Lance Stephenson

Landry Fields

and finally 2008-08 Topps Murad T-51 ( This one didn't rally impress me as I was busting it, but after having a second look I think I really like them and it's a challenging base set to collect.)

Mini's of Russell Westbrook, Wilt Chamberlain and Larry Bird.



RC's of D.Rose and Westbrook among others.



Hits

Allen Iverson Relic Card



Redemption for a Roy Hibbert Certified Framed T-51 Mini Autograph.

And I got a 1/1 press plate Cyan of Desmond Mason (Of course it couldn't of been Durant or Westbrook...lol, but still a great hit.)





A fun break overall, nice to see some different designs.

Will be setting up a photobucket account for sale/trade items soon all of these except the Westbrook's will be available.

BTW anyone be able to hazard a guess at the press plate I imagine for a common player maybe around $30 or $40?

Nice variety bust there mate!!

I think it is a good time to hit an Iggy Auto!!! The Dwight patch isn't too bad either!

I would imagine $30- $40 is probably average for a common NBA PLAYER.... but Mason isn't a player anymore... so mayber $20.. he was dropped by the Kings in 09, and that is a statement!

BTW, hit me up with a list of what legends, kobe's, inserts you need from 08/09 MVP coz I have a pile of them in the cupboard doing nothing

Not bad some nice cards there, PM me a list of base and Blue refractors for 08 Press Pass, should be able to help complete your set as I busted a case of this last year lol.

Rob

hey i have a heap of press pass base if you want them pm me

With MVP.... Cards 222, and 239 weren never printed. So you'll always be missing them.

Nice break, I am collecting the Press Pass base set and have a few of the blue refractors too, send me your want list and we might be able to help each other out.

Thanks for the heads up mate.

Prices seem to of risen drastically at DA since this order Certified understandable with the current Green craze but 09-10 Classics have gone up about $40 too, hop it's not a sign of things to come.
