Nah, not really, just figure more variety vs. cornering the market on these 3 players

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.

I got them for $14.95 a box and saw they are still under $20 at $19.95 a box, so I am debating about picking up 1 or 2 more in my next order. They are definitely fun boxes to open. I may settle for some more 2008 Tristar Projections High# Series boxes though, as they are also fun and have Kershaw autos. So it really comes down to whether I want to try for more Kershaw or Posey.

Somebody needs to give Jay Austin a coloring book so he can practice staying within the lines!

LOL
Yeah, my thoughts exactly ... At least you can say he was consistent! Consistently bad.

Murphy's Law of baseball cards
That sorta thing NEVER happens with a PC player. It'll ALWAYS be with someone you don't collect, or nobody cares about! (Except for the forum member who pulled multiple Topps Chrome Update Pujols Gold... very rarely happens)

Wow! Unbelievable! I guess Topps & Tristar have the same collation program?
It really is disheartening and discourages me from buying hobby boxes ... The only thing worse would be expired redemptions.
I just bought 2 boxes of Topps (&Chrome exclusive) update ... The 4 packs were virtually the same except for 2 cards. Nice collation, folks @ Topps!
