Black Friday Buy 2008 SPx great hits - expediter - 12-23-2016 Hi Thanks to selling some stuff on ebay, but mostly from helping Boots with his want list, I decided to treat myself to some boxes. Kept watching Blowcards.com for something super and saw they had boxes of 2008 SPx baseball for $59.99. Couldn't afford it when it first came out, as boxes were going for over $100 each. Each box comes with 10 packs, with a guaranteed hit in every pack and lots of Junior autographs and Kershaw autographed RC. I have opened the first two boxes and, I am glad I did, before watching box breaks on Youtube, as I did a whole lot better than the boxes I saw busted. Just listing the first box now, since I should have been in bed an hour ago. First surprise was every box has a bonus pack that includes an auto and a yankee legacy card (did we finish that set?) The one is Winfield 5078 Base: all Die cut 4 5 17 19 28 29 43 51 53 67 75 77 79 91 99 Junior American Hero #/725 Kg 11 34 54 75 Autos 4 base Rookies Part of base set 1 Young Star 2008 SPx Silver #102 Emilio Bonifacio AU 2008 SPx #118 Josh Anderson AU (RC) Team: Houston Astros 2008 SPx #128 Ian Kennedy AU RC Team: New York Yankees 2008 SPx #142 Luis Mendoza AU (RC) Team: Texas Rangers Alexi Castillo Young Star Signatures Twins Winning Materials All Numbered 5 relic 1 Patch per box J. D. Drew Red Sox 118/125 Curt Schilling Red Sox 081/125 Ivan Rodriguez Tigers Blue 34/99 Hank Blalock RangersBlue Position 14/75 Casey Kotchman Angels Triple Jersey 14/15 and finally, 2008 SPx Winning Trios Silver Limited Patch #BHJ Adrian Beltre/Felix Hernandez/Kenji Johjima Team: Seattle Mariners 13/25 beautiful patches with two near definite HOFs! Will post scans when I get a chance. Will list box two when I get a chance...since "She Who Must Be Obeyed" wants the family room cleaned. Oh, by the way, the last two packs of box 2, blew box 1 away. Thanks for looking. RE: Black Friday Buy 2008 SPx great hits - kerryandbeth - 12-23-2016 Congrats! It's a lot of fun to break older products if you have the extra funds available, as I agree they were too expensive when they first came out. RE: Black Friday Buy 2008 SPx great hits - expediter - 12-28-2016 Opened box two and three...will list the base set together. 6 (2) Chipper 9 12 18(2) 21 30 (2) 33 38 42 (2) 45 48 54 (2) 57 60 64 66 (2) Jeter 69 78 81 84 90 (2) 93 94 97 Base autos 101 129 131 (Silver) 132 138 Young Stars Autos ALexi Casilla Twins Chris Duncan Cardinals Francisco Liriano Twins Josh Anderson Braves Yankee Stadium 537 Gehrig 1258 Frankie Crosetti Griffey KG 1 4 5 7 19 20 Winning Materials Derek Lee 74/150 Cubs Francisco Liriano 188/150 Twins Carlos Beltran 25/125 Mets Dan Haren 29/125 A's Jermaine Dye 34/125 White Sox Adrian Gonzalez 95/99 Padres Chris Burke 13/99 Chris Burke Geoff Jenkins 81/99 Phillies A.

RE: Black Friday Buy 2008 SPx great hits - expediter - 01-01-2017 RE: Black Friday Buy 2008 SPx great hits - DrMitchJ - 01-02-2017 Okay, I don't get the box score concept ... Why a box score about Aaron Boone and the Reds beating Pittsburgh in 11 innings with KGJr in a Seattle Uniform? Was he playing for Cinncinatti at the time? If so, why not in a Reds Uni.? It's very cool to have a 1/1 KGJr card ... I have a similar 1/1 of Babe Ruth and it a 1/1 of each of his 714 HR's. ... But I understand that Set's concept. RE: Black Friday Buy 2008 SPx great hits - swaswa7575 - 01-11-2017 Opened a few packs of 08 spX at my local card store and only came away with a Garret Atkins game used and Bobby Abreu game used. Good to see you had some luck with this product awesome break!! RE: Black Friday Buy 2008 SPx great hits - expediter - 01-12-2017 Thanks...do you have many singles? LMK Bob |
