You did great! Any time you can get an auto and a s/n color card from a blaster, that's a win! Sure, we'd all like to pull a $500 card, but the odds aren't in our favor. But getting $40-50 dollars worth of cards for $20 is always a good thing ... And who really knows .... Yimi might be HOF in 30 years
(it could happen)
I guess if I saved used tinfoil and used tea bags instead of old comic books and old baseball cards, the difference between a crazed hoarder and a savvy collector is in that inherent value.

Nope, It's the Platinum Chrome Base Auto, and he really signed the card to the left for some reason.

It's funny to me that Topps still considers David Wright a 5-tool player.

What's so funny? He's got a Ryobi 5 piece power tool set!

I've got a ton of 2014 Platinum base cards, I don't list them on ORG, except the notables, Abreu, Bryant, Buxton ETC. What do you need?
