Some of you may know and some of you may not know but I love the 12-13 Absolute basketball. Every break I seem to get something that I end up putting in the PC. It gave me an idea to build a box that way I would spend approximately the cost of a box but definitely get some PC stuff.
Current price of Absolute is in the $70 range. Building a box in that price range would be very difficult. This product was about $140-ush when it came out so I figured I would use the $120 mark as my guide and really kind of shoot for under $100.
The Breaks are 3 autos

The Top left corner on the David Robinson is dog-eared but that is my fault. It was in an ill-fitting top loader and I dropped it. THe carnage is a terribly dog-eared Admiral autograph. The rest of the card is great though.
Another hit from a box of Absolute is either a 4th auto or a relic. I went with a relic.

Lastly, every box I have broken has had either a vet /499 or a spectrum. My build a box budget afforded one of each.

Total costs for this box was $96.93.
I am actually working on a second box almost by accident. I had picked up several different PC Absolute pieces at really good prices and it practically just happened organically.
Thoughts? Opinions??

I am typically a fast shipper and I ALWAYS use Delivery confirmation. Sometimes I forget to provide the number.
