Let me get right to this new twist I am putting into this group break. For each spot you have in this break you will have the option of choosing to receive 1 or 2 random teams. Obviously the price will increase some if you choose to have 2 shots at the Raiders or Falcons.

Here is the price of the break:
Leaf Certified: 1 picked and 1 random = $42 : 1 picked and 2 random = $60

This style of break means that we could have anywhere from 11 people to 16 people involved.

Now to the boring stuff!!
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 break the boxes/case live on ustream and will have the break filmed (thanks to my wife) and posted on youtube likely the day after. I will also posts the hits of each box in this thread as well as scans.
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.

Posted by: elguapochico10 Feb 19 2009, 08:34 PM

Only have 2 open spots right now. Waiting to hear from members who are already a part of the break to see if they want 1 or 2 random teams!!

Posted by: jrthurmer Feb 19 2009, 09:33 PM

Id take 1 pick and 2 randoms.

Posted by: elguapochico10 Feb 19 2009, 09:34 PM

Alright, which case would you prefer?

Posted by: elguapochico10 Feb 19 2009, 09:52 PM

Prophecy Guy commits to the dolphins and 1 random team which opens up another spot!!

Posted by: MWS Feb 20 2009, 07:40 AM

I say LCM and 1 picked 1 Random.

Posted by: 19th Century Indiana Jones Feb 20 2009, 08:58 AM

Whichever has more hits.

Posted by: elguapochico10 Feb 20 2009, 09:02 AM

do you want 1 picked and 1 random for each of your spots or 1 picked and 2 randoms??

Posted by: elguapochico10 Feb 20 2009, 09:12 AM

So far we have 2 votes for Gridiron Gear and 2 votes for Leaf Certified!!

Posted by: 19th Century Indiana Jones Feb 20 2009, 09:30 AM

It doesn't matter to me. Just more hits for everyone!

Posted by: elguapochico10 Feb 20 2009, 09:42 AM

I will give you 2 randoms for 2 of your spots and 1 random for the other spot!! If you want to change it let me know!!

Posted by: haymac Feb 20 2009, 02:33 PM

My vote is for LCM, and I would like 2 randoms.

Posted by: elguapochico10 Feb 20 2009, 02:42 PM

you got it, thanks for the input!!

Posted by: elguapochico10 Feb 20 2009, 02:48 PM

Alright, I have heard back from everyone about how many random teams they want and which case they would like to break. It looks like we will be doing a case of Leaf Certified Materials. If this works out well maybe we'll do one of gridiron gear next because I like that product as well.

We now have three spots open and with teams like the Titans, Panthers and Lions available I can't see this break taking too long to fill!!

Just let me know which team you want and if you would like 1 or 2 random teams!!

Posted by: elguapochico10 Feb 21 2009, 10:26 AM

Just 3 and possibly only 2 spots left to fill if both people take 2 random teams!!!

Posted by: Art Vandalay Feb 21 2009, 11:47 AM

Alright El I've been debating it but I'll take the Titans with one random. Thanks!

Posted by: elguapochico10 Feb 21 2009, 01:25 PM

you got it!! glad to have you back in one of my breaks!!

Posted by: MWS Feb 21 2009, 01:42 PM

Look at what I found in the mail today Jeremy.

Posted by: elguapochico10 Feb 21 2009, 01:44 PM

dang, that's nice!! where did you get that from?

Posted by: MWS Feb 21 2009, 02:03 PM

Ebay. I couldnt help myself. I only need the Ryan now, to have all the high end cards from the set.

Posted by: elguapochico10 Feb 22 2009, 07:46 AM

Still looking for 2!!!

Posted by: elguapochico10 Feb 22 2009, 03:40 PM

Alright guys, we just need a couple people to join. Actually is someone wants to take a spot and 2 randoms I will take another random for myself and we will be full!!!

Posted by: elguapochico10 Feb 23 2009, 07:22 PM

Posted by: elguapochico10 Feb 24 2009, 03:00 PM

2 spots left to fill!!

Carolina and Detroit still available!!!

Posted by: Art Vandalay Feb 24 2009, 03:58 PM

Alright let's get this thing filled. This guy is one of the best box breakers on here. Somebody...anybody....

Posted by: elguapochico10 Feb 24 2009, 09:39 PM

I agree with him!! Let's get this break filled so we can get to bustin'!!!!

Posted by: elguapochico10 Feb 25 2009, 05:11 PM

Posted by: elguapochico10 Feb 26 2009, 08:59 AM

Let's hurry up and get this thing filled so i can begin accepting payments and we can get this break rolling!!

Teams still available:
Giants, Eagles, 49ers, Seahawks, Rams, Lions, Packers, Vikings, Panthers, Saints, Bills, Patriots, Jets, Chiefs, Chargers, Bengals, Browns, Colts, Jaguars

Posted by: elguapochico10 Feb 26 2009, 06:19 PM

anyone want to grab a spot!!

Posted by: quik59sat Feb 26 2009, 06:56 PM

I will answer your call with the Detroit Lions and 2 randoms!

Posted by: elguapochico10 Feb 26 2009, 08:20 PM

Awesome!! I will put you down!!

That fills this break meaning I am now accepting payments.

My paypal address is: elguapochico10@yahoo.com

Posted by: elguapochico10 Feb 26 2009, 08:27 PM

Apparently I am not capable of counting. I thought that if someone took 1 spot and 2 randoms it would fill the break but that put us one team short if I took a second random for myself. So I decided to grab the panthers and a random to fill the break.

Posted by: Art Vandalay Feb 26 2009, 08:58 PM

Payment sent!

Posted by: quik59sat Feb 26 2009, 10:07 PM

payment received from haymac

Posted by: elguapochico10 Feb 27 2009, 07:56 PM

Thanks to everyone who has gotten their payments in already. I wanted to let everyone know that I will be going out of town from this coming thursday to the following tuesday. I would really like to get everyone's payments in as soon as possible so I could get the break done before I have to go; meaning I would have to order the case tomorrow or Monday. I will likely be doing that anyways regardless of how many people are still yet to pay. I may not be able to break the case and get all the cards prepared to ship out before I leave but I wouldat least like to break the case before!!

Please let me know when you will be able to pay. I have already sent pm's to everyone and have not heard back from several of you.

Thanks,
Jeremy

Posted by: MWS Feb 28 2009, 07:25 AM

Posted by: quik59sat Mar 2 2009, 12:54 PM

Posted by: elguapochico10 Mar 2 2009, 08:39 PM

I will do the random team video tomorrow!!

Here is the ups tracking number for our case. It is scheduled to be delivered on Wednesday!!

1Z49X225A856987591

I will be sending pm's to 19th century and prophecy guy about their payments!!

I will be looking to bust the case on Wednesday night around 9:30 pm ET. Let me know if this time works for you guys!!

Posted by: Art Vandalay Mar 2 2009, 09:07 PM

Wednesday works for me. The sooner the better!

Posted by: elguapochico10 Mar 3 2009, 10:13 AM

It seems like there is a hex or someting on all group breaks right now causing them to malfunction. I just checked ups for updated tracking information and it says that there was an incorrect routing at UPS facility. They have issued a rescheduled delivery date which is thursday. Unfortunately this means that the break will not happen until after I get back from out of town because I am leaving straight from work on thursday. Sorry about this guys, I was really hoping to at least bust into the case before leaving but I don't believe that's going to happen!!

Posted by: MWS Mar 3 2009, 11:26 AM

When do you get back?

Posted by: elguapochico10 Mar 3 2009, 12:16 PM

I will be getting back Tuesday night. I am thinking probably next Wednesday will be the best idea. After travelling for around 13 hours on Tuesday and getting back late I don't forsee myself hosting a live box break. I was hoping to get it done tomorrow but ups messed something up. Sorry guys!!

Posted by: Art Vandalay Mar 3 2009, 12:25 PM

Will you still do the random today?

Posted by: elguapochico10 Mar 3 2009, 05:20 PM

Posted by: elguapochico10 Mar 5 2009, 12:53 PM

Well the case arrived today. I am looking to do the break Wednesday night. I will be out of town until tuesday night so I won't be able to respond to any messages or comments. Looking forward to breaking this case!!!

Posted by: MWS Mar 11 2009, 01:54 PM

What time are we breaking?

Posted by: elguapochico10 Mar 11 2009, 02:55 PM

How does tonight around 9:15 pm ET sound for everybody??

Posted by: MWS Mar 11 2009, 02:57 PM

Sounds good to me.

Posted by: MWS Mar 11 2009, 07:39 PM
