Public Service Announcement (pic added)
Just letting everyone know ...
Blowout cards is starting their Black Friday sale early ... Every week until Black Friday, they're releasing their specials. Already put in for a few good deals.
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.

RE: Public Service Announcement
I got the email yesterday and went through and saw some really great deals. I am trying to hold off until Black Friday as the deals are usually even better then, but they are making it hard.

According to what I read ... These are the Black Friday deals. The quantities are limited, and they're releasing them in waves. If they go cheaper on Black Friday, I'll feel stupid, but I already ordered some cards that can't be sold for much less ... Unless they're paying me to take them

No prob, just fulfilling my cardboard duties
I ordered a few boxes. I'll be keeping my eyes open for some extraordinary deals as Black Friday approaches, but pretty happy with my batch so far. I'll post what I get, when they come in.

I guess that's what Black Friday deals are all about, right?
Last year, I got some great deals on some older boxes. I just dread opening a box and finding expired redemptions. It would be really smart to remember which older products were hammered by redemptions and which weren't.

What other boxes did you pick up? I'm a sucker for the free shipping so I always drop at least $150 to get it. Just picked up 6 boxes of 2008 Documentary tonight along with a box of 2004 SP prospects and 2009 UD signature stars. Gonna see if I can pull a decent auto of machado, harper or strasburg.
