Purple Rain!

This is actually the second Purple Refractor Autograph we've pulled in the last two months. The first was Yu Darvish. Halfway through a box of 2012 Bowman Draft Picks and Prospects Baseball we made it rain! A Bryce Harper Rookie Autograph Purple Refractor, on card, and not a redemption! Sweet!

2011/12 Exquisite Basketball Box Break Part 2



Yep, we did another box break of this product with Mojobreak.com and guess what? #2 pick again, arrrggghh! Oh well, it could have been worse.  The box was popping right from the get go.  First card out of the box was a booklet card, Alonzo Mourning/Tim Hardaway Dual Logo Patch Autograph Card 46/50 with Georgetown and UTEP patches.  It also has a Miami Heat basketball connection being in South Florida.  The rest of the box started to come out with a base card, Danny Manning and then a Jerry West Championship Bling autograph.  Next up, BOOM, a Lebron James Personal Touch Autograph, Favorite Car, autographed and with Bentley written on the bottom, numbered to 20, sweet.  The next card, a Corey Joseph autograph rookie, nice, and then the final hit, a DeMarcus Cousins Dimensions Shadowbox autograph rookie, sweet. Not a bad box, but with the #2 pick, I had a decision to make.   I went with my gut, and some local love, and picked the Mourning/Hardaway Booklet Dual Patch Autographs /50. So that's my little taste of Exquisite for the year. With a price hovering around $850, I doubt I will be doing any more of this product.
