How about we do a box of SPx (I don't care what year)? That way, we can get more than 3 hits.

Posted by: Icrackwax Aug 15 2010, 12:14 AM

I'm staying with what I have even though I would have to drop to one spot if we did the case. I might only take one spot in this break anyway. I will have to see how things are going closer to break time.

I just broke a box of Topps T-206 and it is a really nice product. That's only $55 so we could get 2 boxes and still have a cheap break.

2009 Tristar OBAK is a nice looking product as well. It is "minor league" but there are a lot of high end autos. There's even Stan Musial Autos in the product! It's like $39 a box so we could get 3-4 of those.

I do, however, love the looks of Chicle. We could do a box of that with one of the other boxes.

Those are just a few ideas of mine. Let me know what you all think. Thanks.

I missed this post before I posted. SPx is great idea! 2008 is $99.99 at Blowout. 10 hits per box! I've only busted a pack, but I got a Griffey 1/1 out of it (which sold for $100 on eBay). The only concern is whether the redemptions are expired or not. Does anyone know?

Posted by: 5toosweet Aug 16 2010, 12:51 AM

The rookie redemptions expired 6-30-2010. I should know I pulled one in my group break on 6-30. We have busted a lot of 08 SPX and have only pulled that 1 redemption. I would not mind doing 08 SPX. Its actually 11 hits including the AUTO box topper. 09 UD Signature Stars isnt a bad product. Blowouts weekend specials should bring the total to around $150 for both boxes.

Just a suggestion.

Sounds good.

Also, I feel like I need to say that this will be the last break I do. I'm doing the IB Program (not sure if anyone knows what that is), but it is extremely hard, and takes up alot of my time. It would be unfair to all of the members of this break if I couldn't pay it the attention it needs to be run. This break will go through, though, and I'm going to try to get a PM sent out to everyone that needs to verify tonight.

Is the IB Program a high school or college program? Or is it something outside of school? I'm just curious, because I don't think they have this where I live.

http://www.ibo.org/

I'm not exactly sure how much info is on this site because I haven't looked over it myself, but basically it's a program trying to promote open mindedness, tolerance, diversity, etc. Oh and they promote giving a crap ton of work to the students that take it Supposed to be good for college though, so that's why I'm taking it.

I am back with my teams. I love Abels sig stars idea.. Personally if I never opened a box of 08 SPX again it would be to soon...LOL but I bow to the masses...

Posted by: NYStateOfMind1976 Aug 21 2010, 09:29 PM

you know for 150 bucks we could do a box of 09 signature stars (55), 2009 T-206 (62), and 2008 UD Masterpieces...

Posted by: pavi39 Aug 21 2010, 10:38 PM

I'll stay in for this month.

Posted by: Icrackwax Aug 22 2010, 01:03 AM

2010 Tristar OBAK came out a couple days ago. That could be a possibility.

Posted by: Soxarethechamps05 Aug 23 2010, 08:23 PM

I'm in again with the rays

Posted by: NYStateOfMind1976 Aug 25 2010, 07:49 AM

So whats the plan.. Any idea on boxes since this is full?

Posted by: 5toosweet Aug 25 2010, 08:55 PM

Unfortunately I am gonna have to back out of this break. Due to some personal matters I have to cut some expenses out of my budget. Hopefully I can return within the next couple of months.

I am really sorry for the inconvenience this may have cost.

Posted by: NYStateOfMind1976 Aug 25 2010, 10:23 PM

Abel,

sorry to hear it bro....

I will take the giants also and hold them down until Abel can return...

Posted by: tyrodsports Aug 26 2010, 04:24 AM

I will grab the rangers

Posted by: Bravesfan10 Aug 26 2010, 03:27 PM

No problem bro. Sometimes we just have to cut back a little


I already have someone down for the Giants, sorry


I'll put it down.

---------------------------------------------------

We still need one more, but as soon as I can find someone and get everyone verified I'll start collecting payments. As for the boxes, if yall can come to a general consensus on the selection that would be great. Just keep it under $150.

Posted by: NYStateOfMind1976 Aug 27 2010, 10:13 AM

OKay I know its not 150 but it is only 155.. how about this:

2010 Topps National Chicle-67
2009 UD Signature Stars-55
2008 Materspieces-33

Prices based on blowoutcards without specials...

to me that is a good group for the price point with good cards available.

Posted by: NYStateOfMind1976 Aug 30 2010, 10:48 AM

how we looking here?

Posted by: Bravesfan10 Aug 30 2010, 03:59 PM

I'm at the mercy of the members right now, lol. Whenever I can fill that last spot I'll get start getting the payments in.

Posted by: NYStateOfMind1976 Aug 30 2010, 04:12 PM

Makes sense to me. thanks for the update.

I was just curious because I did not see a whole bunch of folks chiming in or anything.

Thanks

Posted by: Bravesfan10 Sep 8 2010, 04:47 PM

B-UMP

Posted by: pavi39 Sep 9 2010, 10:58 AM

I'll fill the last spot so we can get this moving. let me just look through the teams and figure out who I want to take.

Posted by: NYStateOfMind1976 Sep 12 2010, 09:19 PM

I feel like I have been more than patient on this... but gotta draw the line somewhere. please remove me and my spots from this club. thank you

Posted by: Icrackwax Sep 14 2010, 06:53 PM

The same goes for me unless we decide on a break and do it SOON. I like the idea and would like to do this again, but I can't keep waiting for something that isn't moving at all.

Posted by: Bravesfan10 Sep 14 2010, 10:09 PM

I'm sorry guys. I just don't have enough time to devote to this. Break closed.
