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.

That's a pretty decent auto pull out of 2008 Topps, considering the plethora of schlub autos in that set. Jackpot!

Thanks! You're right, could have been a disaster.
Always a pleasure pulling a David Wright auto from a severely discounted product. Probably My best pull of all my Black Friday hobby boxes! (Posey TriStar might be a close 2nd)

It beats the heck outta my other Xmas box of cards ...2010 Topps update. Got a Tim Hudson all star relic. Yawn ... Not worthy of a pic.

Yeah, 2010 Update was pretty brutal for us, too. Opened a jumbo looking for one card (Lucroy, surprise!) and, out of 500 cards, got squadoosh!

Very nice hits. It reminds me that I need to add a David Wright auto to my Mets collection.

Yep, like $24.95 IIRC. 1 auto 1 relic and a chance at a redemption of either hit that expired 8 years ago Smile
I got about as lucky as I could have hoped. At least it wasn't a Jay Austin auto (for those of you that didn't read about my 2008 TriStar break ... Something like 5 Jay Austin autos in 3 boxes of TriStar. ...oh, and 5 Xavier Avery and 5 Brian Hunter in the same boxes ... Collation? TriStar doesn't know the meaning of the word Smile )

FYI: Just checked and Blowout still has 32 jumbo boxes of 2008 still at that sale price. I know I'm quitting while I'm ahead Smile
