I would have to say that this case really blows so far. Hopefully you will hit something big in the last few boxes.

Case #2, Box #11

Gold refractor /50: Trystan Magnuson
Refractor prospect auto /500: Jordan Swagerty

Comments: Nice color, and I actually like Magnuson, but I don’t think there’s going to be a lot of demand for his cards, even if he makes the team next year.

Xfractor USA U18 auto /299: Chris Okey

Case #2 Summary

I had just one box that was clearly worth more than I paid, and 9/12 were losers. I’m afraid the Manny Banuelos base auto was the case hit. That’s definitely not what one is looking for with this product. I lost $150 easily in this case; would have needed a Harper auto in the last box to salvage it. I’m going back to grade Case #1 now; in retrospect, it was really quite good. I’m feeling better and better about the super. But again, that was Case #1 – #2 was a dog.
Grade: D

Ouch, that's gotta sting. Hope the next three are winners and provide lots of sparkly color.

PYWEED!

Please check your PM that I sent you. Ryan Tatusko is looking to get cards of himself on another board and I am sure he'd want the 1/1 Superfractor that you pulled.
