97-98 Bowman's Best w/ scan: Kobes and refractors! - buckunteer - 09-22-2012

I love this product, mainly b/c it used to be had on the cheap and you get lots of refractors. The latter still holds true, but it's tough to pick up for under $75 these days even though it used to run about $55 a year or so ago.

Anyways, pulled 6 refractors all told, base refractors were nothing to write home about (Loy Vaught and Charles O'Bannon- yikes), but the rest are in the scan.

The Kobe Best Techniques is just a regular insert, as is the McGrady best picks, but the rest are all refractors! The Olajuwon atomic and Kobe Mirror Image refractor are both 1:96 pulls. The Kobe Mirror Image does have a refractor line on the opposite side (Pippen/Van Horn on that side), but apparently that doesn't factor in much when a card is graded, so hooray for that haha.

As usual, all are FS/FT. Thanks for looking!

Yeah but I pulled his base refractor and base atomic refractor in the same box last time! No way I was gonna do any better than that for ya haha.

I may be taking a hiatus from box busting, but I'll check the card show tomorrow for some stuff for ya! Do you need either of those Kobes, by chance?

Ping you have a ton of nice bait but nothing I need PC-wise. I'd sell ya both if you're interested! Otherwise I'd like to hang onto them for something PC for a bit if that's ok Smile

And thanks for the comments everyone!
