I have alot to share over this past week so I will just get right to it with the results:
Here is what a Stadium Club retail mini box I bought at Meijer yielded in result wise:
All 3 cards are #'d /1999. The Prince base and 1st day issue parallel card are obviously heading for my PC.
I decided to head over to the card shop since I needed to get some baseball base cards for upcoming 50/50s and events I might go to if I am up for it in the future. Besides being able to secure a Paul Pierce Chorme RC for under $10, I was able to manage a couple jumbo packs of the new 07-08 Upper Deck. Here are the big hits in those 2 packs:
That was all I was able to get on that adventure.
Since I had nothing going on over this past weekend, I decided to make the drive up to the Gibraltar card show this time over in Mt. Clemens,MI back on Saturday. With no new events I will be going to until towards the end of this month, I decided to do an old school box break and pickup a few cards to hopefully hold me over for awhile. Here are the overall results from those pickups:
(What I did not scan was 2 more Paul Pierce rookie pickups. I got the UD Ionix and the Finest RC of Pierce.)
The Abdur-Rahim GU is #'d /25 and I think being able to get it at $4 is not a bad deal.
I was very happy with the Prince/Billups Dual AU #'d /75 pickup and that is obviously heading for the PC.
Well I was searching for boxes and packs I figured were a bargain. I decided to get the last box of the 95-96 Fleer Series 1 that looked like its been sitting there much longer then the 13 years the product has been out in existence. Here are a couple scans I will share from an old school 1990s break:
Does any of those cards bring back memories for anyone??? This product was out 1 year before I started collecting cards. Getting a Grant Hill base and a MJ base in the same pack I think was very cool. Anyhow other names I should throw out there that I pulled cards of I remember fondly from watching the NBA back in the 1990s:
Felton Spencer
Chris Morris
John Starks
Larry Johnson
Sarunas Marciulionis
Mooke Blaylock
Mark Jackson
Mark Price
Mitch Richmond
Jason Kidd (when he was young)
Christian Laettner
Chris Dudley
Blue Edwards
Adam Keefe
LaPhonso Ellis
Mark West
Terry Mills (he was the man at 3 point shooting back in those days with the Pistons)
Oliver Miller
Rony Seikaly
Chris Gatling
Yeah I know try not to laugh at those names lol. I can't believe its been 10 years since those NBA players were on the court. Amazing how time can fly so quickly. I am sure I missed a bunch of names to from the 95-96 NBA season but I don't want to spend all day at listing what cards I pulled with players I remember from those playing days lol. This was a memorable break and I hope to do it again sometime with another product from the 1990s. Feel free anytime also to contact me about the NBA from the 1990s. I am sure these chats would go on all night lol.
I was able to do a box of UD Artifacts. This has to be the worst box I ever busted for 2008 so far. Some packs that stated there are only 5 cards in them actually had 6 cards in them and some packs had 4 cards in them. I did not pull any RCs or anything notable; but after these box results, I will be staying away from this UD Product for the rest of the season:
Terrible. Thankfully that was not the only box I did at this show.
I was able to get a 05-06 Topps Mini-Box that was at a very cheap price to hard to pass up. Here are the results from this mini box break:
(NOT SCANNED: Expired redemption for #12 Draft Pick XFractor from 2006 NBA Draft. Can anybody ID who this player is??? Also Rashad McCants RC #'d /1899.)
The JRich is #'d /139 and is going to the PC obviously. The Haslem is #'d /69. The Orien Greene AU is #'d /349. The Josh Smith GU is #'d /1629.
Alright that is all I have to share from these results. Thanks alot for looking!!!
