Pretty cool for a $1 pack of cards! And there's only 10 different relic cards in the 2014 Opening Day set!

You must have beat the packsearchers to the punch! Good job. Nice pickup.

NICE JOB! Hard to find those in a retail pack these days!

Thanks! That or they missed it because it definitely looks like there was some jerk doing just that in the cards section. Bought a couple of 2014 Gypsy Queen packs and the box looked like it had been gone over. Disgraceful if you ask me.

I actually opened the pack and wasn't paying attention. At first I was like, "Oh cool, a Chris Davis Opening Day Stars card" (I'm collecting the insert sets) then I move that and I'm like, "NO WAY!" so yeah. LOL

For sure. Nice for a low-end collector like myself to pull stuff like that.

Very nice pull from a retail $1 pack. I think the pack searchers don't even bother with Opening Day packs as even the hits don't see for much (so they might not be able to justify spending the time to find them). By the way it is a really nice looking card as well. Topps did a good job with the picture selection and design for it. If the other ones in the set look this nice I may try and put that set together.

The searchers at my Target will leave the packs sideways in the boxes once they've gone through them. So I know when they've done it. The Target lady said they come in on certain days and she watches them weigh, finger and go through the packs. Really frustrating as one that buys retail the bulk of his collection.

Awesome pull for a 1$ pack!! Something similar happened to me at a walgreens and pulled one of carlos pena like 2 years ago

There are only 10 and they're not expensive BV wise. They do look nice for sure. I think the best player in there is a Jeter.
