What exactly is a buyback? Is it just like a redemption?

The companies buy back the actual released cards from the past and have them autoed and reissued in a later product.

They give you what is called a soft grade. Then place them in a semi permanent holder. If you want to, send it then you can with the promise the grade will not go down. I have heard rumors you get higher grades in person? We will see.

Oh that's cool. So it's a raw grade like I have heard about or am I totally off on that too?

Cool learning all kinds of stuff lol.

Yeah I think raw grade is the same as soft grade. Sort of like pop in the east and soda in the westSmile

Actually I call it Soda lol but whatever. Thanks Smile

Since I'm still relatively new to breaking boxes, and havent busted a lot this has been my favorite so far. I haven't pulled a lot of high end stuff so this was cool.

I about crapped myself.

The other best break just happened a week ago. Got a box of 2011 Press Pass and pulled Colin Kaepernick auto #/99, Andy Dalton auto, J.J. Watt auto #/199, a Jake Locker jersey #/50 and a Mark Ingram red ink auto with a print run of 11. Couldn't ask for a better box overall, especially since I had been on a cold streak for a while.

wish i could pull 1 bradford auto let alone too....had to buy my contenders autos....
here is a few more of my fav's.....
