Heritage High Number X2
Didn't do as good as I did last year, but I didn't expect to, although the hope was there.
One card wasn't all that great the other pretty decent.
Adeiny Hechavarria (Marlins rookie) (ehh) and Tony Cingrani (Reds Rookie) (Not bad)
I would post pictures, but I'm underwhelmed by their signatures and the lack of effort displayed. They're no Shelby Miller, to put it mildly
in fact I had to look twice to see Adeiny's auto.
Last year, I did infinitely better ... Zack Cozart and Andy Pettitte /10.
Oh well. Got lots of Black Friday deals coming my way ... hopefully I'll get lucky there.
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.

Who'd you get in the second box? Or was it Double DiDi ?

Darin Ruff
I probably should have followed my gut and bought one box to complete my set

I got Ruf as well, though the corner was badly dinged, as were the corners of the first and last few cards in the box. Have to find a time to sit on hold with Topps I guess.
BTW interested in the Didi if it's available.

The didi will certainly be available when pricing hits, no clue how to value these high number autos since the run is more than last year but less than normal

Ruff ain't too bad ... and yeah, if I knew that the print run was going to be substantially more than last time, I'd probably have stayed with one box, also. ... although, I would have been really upset if my one auto was Hechavarria and not Cingrani.

Got my two today as well. Think I did pretty well. I got Kevin Gausman and Evan Gattis. Neither were players I wanted but much better than it could have been.

I'd be ecstatic with those two autos
