Black Friday Break part 1
Got my first batch of boxes in from the sales.
I got 2 boxes of "why the hall not"
1 2011 donruss limited cuts
and gambled on a cheap box of tier one.
Didn't do too bad.
From why the hall not i got
travis jackson 11/12
barry bonds 7/11
Limited Cuts
Carl Hubbell 41/49
Tier one
Tyler Skaggs
Frank Thomas relic redemption
and then what may have saved the box and the entire thing
Prodigious patches Hanley Ramirez
Checked ebay and the ones that sold were best offer so i cant tell what they got, but the asking price was very high 399 and 499
Anyway to see what they got? looks like whoever bought one has it relisted for 499

Not too bad at all!! Carl Hubbell is a very respectable auto and that Hanley auto/patch is very cool! I didn't pick up a Tier One box, but now I'm wishing that I did.
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.

Was 60 bucks so I thought why not give one a go that cheap

There are some tricks you can use to still check final sale price. I checked and they sold for $200 and $225. The following links should show you final sale prices. If you want to check a different auction just change the item number in the link below to the item number of the auction you are interested in seeing the final sale price for. The item number is the 12 digit number after ebay.com below and before the "?".

THANKS! i've been trying to figure this out for a while, the trick I read about changing com to ca doesnt work anymore
Hey, 200 and 225 aint bad! I don't collect hanley so I don't care about it too much.
I was quite happy with the rest of the break. DrM and Philliesjoe I was happy with hubbel i'm starting a little hof auto collection and to get two HOF and a future HOF in bonds (seriously roids or not the guys a HOF'r) it was a nice lil boost.

Bonds is a great auto and future HOF, definitely .... But just might be a postmortem induction, though
Let us know how part 2 of your break turns out!
My Black Friday haul should be coming today. Hope I at least do as good as you did. I'll be very happy!
