Couple Blasters, trying to build up some hockey in my inventory
Went to Target today and saw they had blasters of 2011/12 UD S1 and 2011/12 Certified so I got one of each. Pulled 2 YG's (Anton Lander & Alexei Yemelin) from the UD blaster. From the Certified blaster I pulled a Luke Schenn mirror red /199 and a James Van Riemsdyk mirror blue AU /99. Certified is always fun to open, might have to go back for the rest. lol...
On another note... also bought a box of random hockey cards from Target that were purchased on the secondary market and re-packaged (sort of like a value box). Had some older UD packs in it so figure I'd take a chance and maybe pull some older YG's. Definitly was a bad idea... One pack had to be opened and resealed as it was short some cards (wonder what had been there) and one of the 3 cards had been like folded in half. Pretty shady, definitly shoulda known better and will never do again.

I bought one of those boxes and pulled some UD game jerseys and a 07-08 (I think) YG of Andrew Cogliano. Sorry to hear you didn't have as good of luck.

RE: Couple Blasters, trying to build up some hockey in my inventory
Went back to pick up another Certified blaster. Wasn't really paying attention yesterday, didn't realize they were $30. After opening its contents I wish I woulda went with my gut feeling and picked the other one. lol... anyways... Pulled a Joffrey Lupul mirror blue /99 and a Mar Staal mirror blue relic /99.
