Worst box of 1996-97 Chrome EVER!!! - ppsmover - 07-01-2013

So I picked up a box at what I thought was a good deal.. $750.00

Now for those who don't know there are 20 packs of 4 which is about 1/3 of the set....and this set has the RC's of Marcus Camby, Kobe, Iverson, Antoine Walker, Steve Nash, Tony Delk, Stephon Marbury, Ray Allen, and a few others... Plus Jordan is in this set....

So I take the gamble and brek the thing open....

RC's received? Brent Barry.... that is it... Also got him as my Youthquake hit...

Refractor? Horace Grant....

Lucky if my $750 could even get me $20.00

Suffice to say I am an idiot for opening the box...

Wow...I have seen boxes of that on the Internet here and there. Damn, sorry man. You only hit one damn rookie?

Wow, so sorry man. You got some major balls opening that thing. Very brave man. Hope your next box is LOADED to make up for it.

Any recommendations on what you guys might want to see for a box break in the future? I like busting higher end boxes... Let me know

Wow, very sorry to hear that.. I have always wonder who would actually buy those box's cuz they are a very big gamble.. Hopefully you'll get better luck on your next box you bust...

Brent Barry wasnt a rc that year...so unless you missed something you got NO rcs

yea Barry was drafted in 1995. Maybe it was a 95-96 box?

No he said:

"RC's received? Brent Barry.... that is it... Also got him as my Youthquake hit..."

and we're saying Brent Barry wasnt a rc. There were several non rcs in the Youthquake set.
