Grabbed a couple boxes (not sealed but all the packs looked untampered) when I bought some other stuff and did quite well. Loved the look of the cards and even the lower end GU cards are of great players. See below for the results of the first 2 boxes.

Not sure if the boxes were opened and are unsealed to cherry pick the Cut Signatures or what, but based on the fact that in each of the initial two boxes I got the alotted hits (and some good ones) and an extra auto, I'm hoping the rest will be the same. The guy said they were opened to get through customs and then closed up???, which I don't totally buy, but who knows, maybe it's the truth and there still might be Cuts in these? Also a lot of 1 of 1 GU potential unless those were cherry picked too. The price was bargain bin at $22.50 a box so I just took a gamble and just grabbed 14 more boxes and will be breaking them tonight!!!! I may get burned but if they have the regular GU of 3 per box, I'll be happy.

Here are the results of the first two boxes:

Nolan Ryan Significant Swatches Jersey
Sparky Lyle Significant Swatches Jersey
Steve Carlton Ultimate Swatches Bat
Dave Winfield Historic Swatches (with pinstripe)
Mickey Lolich Historic Swatches


user posted image

Fergie Jenkins All-Time Autos #25/50

user posted image

Mickey Mantle Ultimate Swatches SP!!!!!!!!


Can't wait for the rest tonight!!! To open almost a case of this stuff (whether the cuts are there or not) for $315 bucks was a no brainer for me. I'll probably do box by box recaps with pictures so check back this evening.

Sounds like a great price per box, whether or not you get a cut. Still I don't really like opened packages, but the result is a real great price and breakage fun. Good Luck, hope you get a cut!

Thanks guys! Getting closer to break time. Now if I just didn't have so much work to do at my job before leaving on vacation this weekend, I could go home earlier and get to breaking.......
