The Bux Stops Here!

 



On Friday night at the Ballpark, Mark and I decided to treat ourselves to a couple of jumbo boxes of 2013 Bowman Baseball. 12 Packs of the future of baseball with 3 Autos and plenty of prospects and parallels. My box had some bonus action in it, yielding a Jesse Winker AFLCA Perfect Game On Card Auto /225, a Matt Olson Chrome Rookie On Card Auto, a Jayson Aquino Chrome Blue Refractor On Card Auto /150, and the gem, a Byron Buxton Chrome Rookie Auto. Whenever you get an auto of the guy on the box, it can't be a bad thing. All these cards and more are available in our store, check them out, and thanks for stopping by.

Lightning Strikes Twice!



I recently purchased a box break for my nephew for helping me out.  A four box Panini Prime Hockey break.  I pick the Tampa Bay Lightning for him, his favorite team, and boy did they light the lamp.  We got two hits, the same rookie, the same card, both numbered to 50. We hit on two Prime Time Rookies Brett Connolly Autograph Jersey Cards, numbered 18/50 and 26/50.  The Lightning definitely struck twice on this break.

Carpal Tunnel Rookies



Well I had the pleasure of participating in and watching an 8 box case break of some 2012 Topps Finest Football at Mojobreak.com.  It was random style and I was fortunate enough to get the Denver Broncos.  Although nothing earth shattering was pulled, the one rookie patch auto per box became the evidence that card companies are getting their money's worth out of these guys when it comes to signing cards.  Rookie autos numbered to 13-1500, ridiculous.  These young men are gonna get carpal tunnel syndrome before they can sign a contract.  They probably hate Sharpies now, and wouldn't doubt that they growl at anyone asking for some signage. Come on card companies, getting an autograph should be exciting not bewildering.
