Opening Day Made My Night (Updated with Picture)
Well I stopped by Target tonight and couldn't control my need to open up some packs. Well I was looking around at what was available and saw that they had some 2014 Opening Day. Well I grabbed it and headed to the checkout. Went out and busted it and there was nothing to excited until I stumbled across a Jeter Opening Day Bat Relic. This has to be one of my favorite retail hits and my first decent card of Jeter. Then I went on to ebay and saw what these bad boys are selling for. WOW! Definitely made my night. I will post a picture if anyone wants to see it.
Sorry for rambling and thanks for looking!

So very jealous! Other than the Trout auto, that's one of the best OD cards available! Like I've been saying, Opening Day is a no-lose at worst, but a huge win some of the time. Glad to see theres another OD convert
Congrats on a monster hit! I'm assuming you're keeping it, but if you want to trade it at any time in the near future, please keep me in mind. Thanks!

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.

The relics are very cool in this years Opening Day. I pulled a Freddie Freeman Jersey one in a blaster a few weeks back. I also did great in general with this years OD blasters , Lambo auto , Pedroia photo variation and some sweet blue ones /2014.

No problem! And I am sorry, I still can't decide if I want to keep it or not. But if I decide to trade it, it will be coming your way! Thanks again!

That's gotta be some sorta Murphy's Law/irony kinda thing!
