Time to resume the FB Casebreakers group and since we are still waiting on Exquisite to release we will skip it for now and move on to the 2012 products as they are set to release! This group breaks cases of the newest products as soon after release as possible. Our first product of 2012 products is a 12 Box Case break of 2012 Panini Prestige. Please remember that I cannot accept Paypal anymore for group breaks so please join only if you are able to send payment by money order or cashiers check or how most of our members are doing it now and that's by your bank bill pay (let me know if you need details on how to do this). Only a few exceptions will be made for loooong time members to be able to send a personal check. Sorry about this extra hassle but the savings of paypal fees is reflected in the lower cost as well! Team assignments below are taken from our most recent case break group so please let me know if you are adding, dropping, or changing teams.

Hey Chris:
Not going to be able to get payment in the mail to you until the end of the week. Sorry ...
Are you looking for new members? Please let me know. Thank You
payment scheduled to arrive 14 Jun. The long long long long overdue 25 was added as well. Thanks for not sending the mob to shake me down for it.
Rodney
Thanks!
Payment was sent and is scheduled to be there on 06/14/12. Thanks and looking forward to the break. Good luck all!
Just a heads up folks that I have changed the upcoming schedule of products that follow Prestige. I was planning on doing Elite but it turns out I will be unavailable to break for a good 10 days after the expected release date so I switched it out with Topps Inception which releases on July 11th. That thread will be up soon.
Still have 5 more draft picks to sell so we can start the draft and be ready to break upon release! Anyone...??
Release now shows June 28th on Prestige.
Still looking for some more takers for the $20 draft slots. I'll open this up to anyone wanting to join us even if you're not in the break!
Ok folks, I have a dilemma! With this release pushed back I am in danger of not being able to break for some time. I have a 2 week vacation starting Friday morning and while my wife will be home it would not go over well to have her do a break! I was told the release was Thursday but now it shows Friday so even if I get it on release day (which Blowout said they could probably do) it will be too late. I have pushed breaks back before but never that long and never on a Casebreakers group as it kind of defeats the purpose of being among the first to have the cards in-hand. I am seeing if I can delay the trip by a day but I'll be honest it's a longshot at best. I am sorry about this but I don't see a way out!
No worries here
Thanks guys, I appreciate the understanding! I will have to schedule this one for July 14th. Please note the Inception break which was to follow this one has been cancelled as well due to the checklist revealing 9 teams had no hits possible! Over the next week or so I'll adjust the future break schedule.
Hey Chris ... I'll pick up a draft spot if one is still available. Thanks.
Thanks Highlander, you got it. Still have 3 left to sell and I am out of dough so looking for some others to step up if possible.
PS ... go have a vacation ... for me. lol
Payment on the way.
I think we're good as I may have sold the Ravens slot which would cover 2 slots to allow me to say that the draft slot that is chosen last will actually get the last 2 unclaimed teams. Shickfaced may be taking the remaining unclaimed slot if everyone is good with that.
I can see your point but it's only because we haven't been able to sell the last slots to any members of the break that I opened it up to outside members. With one slot left if any member of the break wants to close it out that would be preferred but we've had no takers in the past week or so. Joe I know you said you may take it but didn't want to force you into a purchase you didn't really want. Let me know as one more slot will let us proceed to the draft so we are ready to proceed with the break next weekend.
By the way, the beach is hot, the water is cold... Thanks for the vacation guys!
Ok guys, the Ravens slot which I thought was sold was just dropped again so we are back to 8 open teams with 8 draft slots. Since we have been trying for a couple weeks now to fill those last 3 slots but have had no takers, I have made the decision to allow Shickfaced to buy the remaining 3 slots. Those will be randomized along with the others. I don't like to go that route but the break is just a few days away and risks eliminating a box from the case if we don't fill and I just didn't want to do that. Since I have a couple slots I decided to ask someone else to randomize the draft order so we will wait for them to help us out and then we can start the draft immediately. I should be back in town and ready to have the break on Saturday evening. Once again, thanks for your patience folks and once I'm back in town and we knock this one out we'll take a look at the release schedule to see what should be next in line.

Sorry about the delay guys and thanks to Brian for running the random! We can start the draft immediately so we can be ready to break.

Hey guys! Back home and case is in-hand but there's no way I can get this in tonight so the break is scheduled for tomorrow (Sat) night at 9pm(ct).
Also, lots of base in this product so please let me know if you want base cards sent! I can certainly do so but don't want to sort it all if I don't have to. Just let me know as otherwise you'll just get the rc's, inserts, and hits.
Good luck all!
Base for me please...and a base Russell Wilson (Seahawks) RC if Highlander wouldn't mind!!
Only Tony Romo base for me please
One of each base please
Can I also get the Murrays with the Romos. I almost forgot about him. MJDA will be asking for my other base, and I am fine with that.
Go ahead and give hime one Romo and one Murray as well if there are dupes. Thanks.
Rodney
Hey Chris ... if I get duplicates of any Russell Wilson cards, can you send them on to Faulk? Thanks.
Got it...thanks guys. If anyone else wants base please let me know asap.
These videos are long and it's taken longer than expected. Still waiting on 3 to load so there's a chance 1 or 2 might not be ready yet but we will roll on either way and I will show pics of the hits and add the video later tonight. If all goes well all but the 2nd box (which failed to load and is back at the end of the line of videos) will be loaded by the time we get to them.
looking forward to it, as always thanks for hosting...
Ok folks...12 boxes in all to do tonight with 24 packs in each. This led to videos around 10-11 minutes for each box so I'll give the option of watching each video that will show all the base and inserts or if you just care about the hits those will be posted following each video post.
First box is up in just a minute!

I know this is setting a faster pace than the videos but I'll leave it up to you to go at your own pace. If I wait for each video to finish before posting the pics we'll be here for 3 hours.
Box #2 is yet to load as it failed the first try as noted earlier so I will add that here as soon as possible but will go ahead and post pics next.
Here's the video for Box #2;

That's it guys...a so so case but good to breaking new stuff again. I'll take a look at the release calendar and try to get a schedule put together soon for the next products in line. Until then thanks once again for everyones patience in getting this one done and the cards should be sorted and out soon.
got a goose-egg on this one. Thanks for hosting.
Thanks Chris! Any news on Exquisite?
Video for Box #2 has been added to the post following Box #1 in case anybody wants to view it.
Thanks Chris! You are required to make the "Isaiah Pead" joke on camera every time you pull him this season...
Nice break. I love the Moss and Orakpo. I hope everyone got good hits.
Adam
Hey Chris I will take all of the Peyton Manning base but I don't need any of the other base. Thanks for the break.
Thanks for the break Chris. I didn't get a chance to watch the videos and just looked at the pics, so I didn't hear the Isaiah Pead joke. However, mark my words...he is going to be an impact rookie this year, so you fantasy players should consider picking him up in the late rounds. He is going to get a lot of looks.
Rams were surprisingly well represented in this product...Chris must have hated it!!
Anyways...thanks again for the break.
Thanks for the break Chris: Had to work, so missed it again. Can't complain cause I do love working evenings. Just need more work, or less work and more pay.
Nice break! If any spots come available for the next one, I'm in.
