I purchased this box the day after I placed an order for the 3 from the group break along with a couple of binders and a 2009 Topps Series 1 Hobby box that was on clearance. Since it was shipped separately, I didn't have to choose which 3 to be group and 1 to be mine. While the base collation was horrible in this box (almost 30 dupes after only have having 1 in 3 of the group boxes), the hits were better in my opinion.

Trade stuff coming tonight!
Nice score on the Koufax.
ReplyDeleteHow do you like those die-cut cards? I didn't think that I'd be a huge fan, but I pulled the Halladay and I think it looks sweet, i.e. good enough to keep in a binder instead of putting on the trading block.
ReplyDeletePretty good inserts, from the Koufax relic to not one, but TWO Padres (Alonso & Gwynn).
Every time I see those gold parallels, I think of how much cooler the diamond parallels were last year.
