Made the drive out to the card show today near Detroit. This time, I brought some more stuff to trade with and it yielded more results then I expected it to. I did do a box of 07-08 product but before I show what pack I did of 07-08 and what box I did of 07-08, I will share my pickups before the packs and box results. Here it goes:
Once I got into the building, I walked around for a bit and I came right to a table and looked at the basketball stuff this one guy had. I think this was a good deal for $20:

Yup the card is numbered to 25; no joke as seen above in the scan!!!
Next stop was another guy that was up for trading. This guy was seriously after some basketball stuff and was happy to do what he wants to be doing. I look through his stuff and the card on the left after the trade when it was all said and done only down to around $11 I don't think that is to bad of a deal:

Yup that auto is numbered to 240.
My next stop involved a guy I have seen and dealt with before in the Detroit area. This time he took a look at my stuff. He took a bunch of Rip Hamilton autos and a couple Billups autos I was wanting to move to get these cards in and my 1st MOJO pickup of the day!!!:
These on hold for kgcharliev:

kgcharliev, thanks for the list. I am sure you will be needing these cards. I was shocked anyone around here would have Charlie V. stuff. Yeah don't worry, I took a hard look at that list for about 2-3 minutes on each card to be sure it was listed as needed.
Now also in this deal, my 1st MOJO pickup of the day!!!:

Yup a 3 color autographed patch of Tayshaun Prince #'d to 25 from 2006-2007 Upper Deck Exquisite!!! I was shocked to have successfully traded for this!!! That is all I have to share of pickups from trades and good bargains.
Now I made my way over to the packs and boxes seller at this show. I decided on a jumbo pack of 07-08 Topps and a box of 07-08 Fleer Ultra. Before I did the jumbo pack, a guy standing next to me earlier that the seller was telling me about came back to him and in one of the Non-Jumbo Topps 12 card packs, he pulled 2 autos out of there. One of the autos was J.J. Redick and the other was a guy on the Blazers I think but I know it was not Oden or else I bet everyone would know about it by now lol. I forget the other auto he pulled but I know it was 2 autos out of one of the packs. The Jumbo did not have to much excitment but I did pull this:

This card is #'d to 2007. I did pull other RC base out of the Jumbo pack and I plan on saving them for ip autos for the coming NBA season.
I also got around to being able to do a box of the new 07-08 Fleer Ultra. Here are scans of the big pulls from this box enjoy:

Yes I finally pull one. I finally pull a LeBron James GU jersey card. I wasn't expecting this but this also made my day!!!
That is all I have to share from this card show experience. If I do not oversleep, I may head back over there tommorow to get Bob Feller maybe to Sweet Spot an Baseball for me and to maybe go back to the last guy I traded with to see if anything else can be worked out for 2-3 other Prince cards he has that I still need from him. This was a great day!!! Thanks alot for looking!!!
