Hi folks!

The time has come to start building up another one of our huge box busting days, which we call EVENTS! We have had massive interest on OZCT in the past for our events, with some people even offering to pay money just to come and watch! We are not quite ready for that but we definitely encourage people to get involved with the thread on the day. Maybe you could even bust open a box or 2 yourselves on the same day as us and post your results. We get a lot of our boxes from dacardworld because of the wide range but a great local source that we also buy from is Mr Paparazziwho is right here on OZCT.

For those that dont know, these events used to involve 4 of us buying a whole bunch of sealed boxes (and sometimes cases!) and then just kicking back for the day or night with a few beers and busting them open! It normally takes 8-10 hours to get through them and we do like to make it last (cant blame us after the money we spend hehe). We have had some huge events over the past 3 or so years and I have documented the biggest ones with photos and video, check out the link below....

Unfortunately in recent times 2 of the guys stopped "Eventing" with me (John) and OZballer (Luke) so the last 2 or 3 have just been with the 2 of us. But now we have one member back (Bowers) so this event will be called the BOWERS IS BACK EVENT (creative?). It will be held on Saturday May 25th. So yes this post is early but we feel it helps with the build up and to get others involved. As per usual, a lot of the cards we bust will be up for sale or trade so the best way to get your hands on them will be to watch our event thread and be the first to express your interest!

Anyway enough of the boring stuff, whos ready for THE LIST???

Ok that should be all of it! We wont post results of every single box live, being such a large event. The live posts will be of major hits and updates throughout the day. However once the dust has settled I will create another thread will all the photos and video taken during the event and pretty much every significant card pulled. There will also be a list of the cards for sale/trade.

So lock in May 25th in the calendar (will start busting after lunch)

CHEERS FOLKS!!!
 
im still in my first year collecting and its going to be great to see a few of those older boxes getting busted!

Best of luck with them all, ill grab my own few to scratch my itch!!
 
Thinking of busting a couple of boxes live to view online on the day. What would be the best/easiest way to do this? I thought I could do it through Skype if it allows multiple viewers. Does anyone know more?
 
Ok yeah? Be cool if I could just post an address or link for people to use and it takes them straight to the video.
 
Just a note for all those watching this thread in anticipation for this Saturday, I will actually most likely be starting a fresh thread on the day that will just have our list of boxes. From there we will carry on with the busting! I am also keen to go ahead and try some live video box breaks, will be using motiv8dans suggestion of google hangout. I recon I will give it a test run with a link on this thread first, probably before lunch on Saturday so stay tuned.
 
BREAKING NEWS......
