Since I have not had anyone join the 3 box sp rookie threads break that was not a regular I have decided to change directions a little. Rather than doing several boxes of the same product I thought it would be fun to do 1 box of several different products. Here is the rundown:

Total of 61 High end Hits!!!

The price for 1 picked and 1 random team will be $96!!!

Falcons and Raiders are random

Here is how this and all my other breaks in the past have worked:
1. Once the break fills I will begin accepting payments (paypal preferred)
2. Once I have received payment from everyone I will do the random team video (via random.org). The teams will be posted in this thread and a video will be added to my youtube channel. I will also order the case/boxes at this point.
3. I usually like to create transactions with everyone after I receive their payments; that way I am not creating transactions with people who will eventualy drop out.
4. I will provide periodic updates about the estimated time of arrival for the case/boxes as well as the time and day I expect to break into the case/boxes.
5. I will host the break live on ustream and will also have the breaks filmed (thanks to my wife) and posted on youtube. I will also post the hits of each box in this thread.
6. If any cards are represented by more than one team they will be randomed off on random.org most likely the day following the break. Also I take great care of the cards from the moment I pull them out of the pack. If any of your cards are damaged when you receive them I can guarantee you they were like that when they were pulled. I try my best to examine the hits when I first pull them out so the owner will know it was not something of my doing.
7. If the product contains an enormous amount of base cards I will ship out three duplicates of each. Any cards #'d higher than 100 will be shipped in team bags along with the base cards. Any cards #'d less than 100 and autographs will be shipped in penny sleeves and top loaders. Any jersey/patch cards will be shipped in magnetic protective cases. All of these items will then be placed in a bubble mailer and shipped as soon after the break as I am able to manage.
8. If you would like a delivery confirmation number on your package(s) all you have to do is ask. I will state however that I have shipped out close to 200 packages so far and every single one has been received by the correct owner. That being said, I still understand if you would like to take the extra precaution.

If you have any other questions that I have not already answered feel free to send me a pm.

[elguapochico10]

I am also contemplating a minor format change regarding how it is determined who receives cards with more than one team represented. Here is my idea. If the two teams represented on the card are both chosen teams the card will be randomed off on random.org. If one team is chosen and the other was a random the card will go to the chosen team. If both are random teams the card will be randomed off on random.org. The only exception to this rule would be the falcons and raiders since they were not able to be chosen. Any card with the falcons and another team or raiders and another team will be randomed off on random.org. The reason why I am considering this is because I started thinking about why people join these breaks in the first place. The main reason why people join is because they want to collect cards of their favorite team. In my opinoin, priority should be given to the chosen teams.

Please give me your thoughts about this possible change. Sorry that the post is kind of lengthy but I really wanted you to see where I was coming from.

[elguapochico10]

I know somebody wants in tonight.........I'm just not sure who!!

[Prophecy Guy]

I concur with this particular format change. I don't see the post as overly lengthy; it is exactly what is needed to explain how this change would work. A couple other breaks I am in were kind of "knocking on the door" of this particular way of determining ownership of dual/triple/quad cards etc. but would always fall just short - mainly because people WEREN'T willing to go the last step and realize that you could make exceptions for the Raiders and Falcons (or whichever teams happen to be random in a given year/product/sport.)

[elguapochico10]

Anybody want to pick up one of these last four spots tonight?

[MWS]

We should change to 6 boxes of SPA.

[elguapochico10]

We should change to 6 boxes of SPA. 

That would be fine with me. I guess it's up to what everyone wants.

[elguapochico10]

MWS has proposed that we switch from 3 boxes sp rookie threads to 6 boxes of sp authentic. If we change to sp authentic I would lower the price. If you are already in this break I need your feedback. If you are not already in this break, why aren't you?
