Hello all. We have put together a new group that will focus on cases of newly released FB products and will allow you to retain your teams as we bust cases of all the latest stuff out there. This an ongoing group which means if you join us now you can retain your team for as long as you choose to continue to participate, but with an aggressive break schedule there will most likely be alot of turnover as folks like or dislike the next product on the list so I would expect some great teams to pop open from break to break. We'll break about every 2-3 weeks but of course this will be based on the release schedules. The price I will post each break for will be based on 20 teams filled along with 12 random draft picks that can be purchased by participating members only. If we fill more we will honor a credit towards the next break if the cost goes down or add more product if possible. The draft picks will be sold on a first come first serve basis. Then after payments are made we will randomize the draft order and hold our draft for the remaining unpurchased teams...make sense? Usual Boxbreaker rules apply for the multi-player cards.

Here is the expected break schedule. The dates listed are the expected release dates so the breaks would be held as soon as possible after receiving the case and again, the slot prices are based on 22 particpants (20 participants starting with TTT) so are subject to change;


Oct 13th: Absolute Memorabilia (18 box case - $104 slot / $30 draft) Payment by Sep 26th
Nov 10th: Triple Threads (9 box case - $69 slot / $20 draft) Payment by Oct 30th
Nov 16th: SPx (14 box case - $60 slot / $18 draft) Payment by Oct 30th.
Nov 17th: Limited (15 box case - $64 slot / $20 draft) Payment by Nov 7th
Dec 15th: Panini Plates & Patches (15 box case - $80 slot / $28 draft) Payment by Dec 5th
Jan 14th: Topps Supreme (16 box case - $62 slot / $20 draft) Payment by Jan 4th
Feb 2nd: Topps Tribute (8 box case - $82 slot / $28 draft) Payment by Jan 23rd
Feb 24th: Topps 5 Star (TWO 3 box cases - $137 slot / $38 draft)


Because this is an ongoing break where folks have the ability to retain their teams I am only taking sign-ups for the next break on the list which is TTT. Here is the info for the current break;

Product: 2010 Triple Threads FB 9 Box Case Plus 1 box.
Cost: $69 first team ($67 ea additional) and $20 per draft pick
Payment Deadline: Oct 30th
Published Release Date: Nov 10th

Draft if i can send with cash now

Posted by: crpalmi Oct 18 2010, 10:19 AM

Sorry, the draft slots are only extra pick ups for participating members. If you wanted to join us with any unclaimed team at the $69 slot rate you can then add a draft slot to it for $30 more. Hope that makes sense.

Posted by: redbird8 Oct 18 2010, 11:50 AM

Yeah it does thanks anyway.

Posted by: want2bet Oct 18 2010, 12:03 PM

Posted by: crpalmi Oct 25 2010, 09:27 AM

The release is still on track for Nov 10 so the payment deadline on this one is approaching fast. Please try to get payments in by Sunday Oct 31st.

Posted by: Gottabe Oct 25 2010, 11:23 AM

I hate to draft someone's Draft Hopes, but Jr.s Birthday is this weekend, so I might as well make sure he has a shot at some Triple Threads. Jaguars Style!

Posted by: MWS Oct 25 2010, 12:57 PM

Kind of paid?

Posted by: crpalmi Oct 25 2010, 01:16 PM

Got you down Joe. Be sure to wish Jr. a happy birthday and I'll scrounge around to see if I have any Jags left to send him a small present.

Posted by: Gottabe Oct 25 2010, 07:42 PM

This is his present. Unlike what you said about Ben, Logan get's MORE STUFF than I do. I am gonna start telling everyone I am actually 11 and Logan is my Dad and he is 60

Posted by: crpalmi Oct 26 2010, 08:53 AM

I hear you...but...too late. Package has been sent along with your group break stuff. Didn't have too much but at least he'll have another something to open.

Posted by: crpalmi Oct 26 2010, 03:31 PM

I updated the future case break schedule on the initial post. I switched out Bowman Sterling with Panini Plates & Patches and then added our Feb products of Topps Tribute and Topps 5 Star which will be a 2-case affair.

Posted by: MWS Oct 26 2010, 05:41 PM

Nice

Posted by: kpit1978 Oct 26 2010, 05:43 PM

Hate to see the Bowman dropped, always one of my personal favorites. The Plates and Patches looks pretty promising though.

Posted by: Gottabe Oct 27 2010, 02:45 PM

Ditto on the Bowman

Posted by: MWS Oct 27 2010, 02:52 PM

I'm glad to see its gone.

Posted by: crpalmi Oct 28 2010, 09:01 AM

TSanto joins us with the Raiders.

Let's get payments in everyone as the deadline is this weekend!

Posted by: kpit1978 Oct 28 2010, 09:09 AM

paid.

Posted by: Gottabe Oct 28 2010, 09:28 AM

That's too bad Mike, I think you would have pulled a card from the Sterling to loosen up that Starr Auto I have


Payment sent this a.m.

team + draft payment sent !

Posted by: Hail24 Nov 1 2010, 12:14 AM

Payment sent for colts and draft spot thanks.

Posted by: crpalmi Nov 1 2010, 05:57 AM

Bib has dropped out so the Titans are available! As soon as we get the last payments in we'll hold the draft.

Posted by: crpalmi Nov 1 2010, 09:40 AM

DoubleJ has dropped out so the Bears are now available!

Posted by: crpalmi Nov 1 2010, 06:27 PM

Ravens are now available as well. With the 3 dropped teams from the last couple days we may have an open draft pick if anyone wants to pick one up. Still open to more folks joining us with an extra team. We are 3 teams over our goal so we'll either have extra funds or if we can fill another slot we will have enough to add a 10th box. Who wants in?

Posted by: road_runner_1964 Nov 1 2010, 07:59 PM

Payment sent.

Posted by: want2bet Nov 1 2010, 08:25 PM

Posted by: EJames Nov 1 2010, 10:03 PM

I'll take a draft spot if needed.

Posted by: MWS Nov 2 2010, 07:55 AM

Good teams still up for grabs.

Posted by: Gottabe Nov 2 2010, 08:51 AM

I can take a draft spot as well, if you need.

Posted by: crpalmi Nov 2 2010, 02:01 PM

Just waiting on one more payment. Assuming we get that in soon we will actually not need any more draft picks after the addition of EJames. Gottabe I'll keep you posted if we have an opening and thanks for offering!

We'll start the draft soon after as I still show the release for this as Nov 10th.

Posted by: crpalmi Nov 7 2010, 06:55 AM

Draft time is upon us! We have 9 unclaimed teams to choose from and the draft order has been set using Random.org. The draft can start immediately and I'll ask that when your pick is made please PM the person with the next pick so we can keep the draft moving. Thanks again guys and good luck!

As for the break...still looks to be a release date of Wednesday so the break date will just depend on when the case is received. This one is coming from DACardworld so as soon as I have info on the date I'll pass it along. I'm hoping to have it in hand by Friday for a possible Friday night or Saturday night break but I won't know until I get some tracking info. I ordered the extra box as well so hopefully that won't slow it at all. I'll post an update as soon as I know.

Posted by: road_runner_1964 Nov 8 2010, 09:05 PM

Cool....got to leave Saturday, Nov 20th @ 6PM open for the "Mr 264 Mega 15 Year SPx Break" anyways....

Posted by: crpalmi Nov 8 2010, 10:17 PM

Oooh that's right. That could be a long affair!

Posted by: MWS Nov 9 2010, 02:25 PM

2010 topps triple threads football Cards have hit the Bay.

Posted by: crpalmi Nov 9 2010, 02:35 PM

Just got an email from DACardworld 2 minutes ago saying that TTT will be shipped out today. No tracking info yet but it's always 3 day shipping to me so I should receive it Friday. If it arrives prior to 3pm I will try to get everything ripped and loaded by Friday night (8pm ct) but if it's after that it will have to be a Saturday night break. The last 2 months I have had a hell of a time getting these videos to load so if we shoot for Friday there is a good chance I may be waiting on a couple videos to load so please be aware of that!

Posted by: Gottabe Nov 11 2010, 04:13 PM

Anyone hoping to get a "PREVIEW"

I'll be opening 5 Boxes tonight. Waiting on GF to get home.

Staring at them right now

I almost can't stand it

It'll be over in the Box Breaks thread, not to clutter this one up.

Posted by: MWS Nov 12 2010, 02:12 PM

Got cards?

Posted by: Gottabe Nov 12 2010, 04:31 PM

Better hope one of those is a nice Rice or Montana, then we can discuss the Tebow

Posted by: MWS Nov 12 2010, 04:35 PM

I'll be lucky to get anything at all... TTT has never been good to me. Oh I almost forgot.

Posted by: crpalmi Nov 12 2010, 05:00 PM

Cards are here! We'll shoot for tonight at 8:30ish but as loading videos has been tough lately don't be surprised if it's 9pm. I'll try to update the thread.

Posted by: Gottabe Nov 12 2010, 05:06 PM

It Wus da Ho Ho's that got them here

Posted by: crpalmi Nov 12 2010, 09:07 PM

Sorry guys I'm stuck away from home so I won't make 9pm. Illrun the break as soon as I can but it may be more like 930. Sorry!

Posted by: Gottabe Nov 12 2010, 09:34 PM

Since we are here..Someone needs to go ahead and sing us a song to pass the time

Good luck everyone!!!

Posted by: Gottabe Nov 12 2010, 10:38 PM

Haven't gotten him a 360 yet and I'm too compulsive to get something I might start playing

I'd never get any sleep

Posted by: crpalmi Nov 12 2010, 10:44 PM

Ok...I'm finally here. I apologize but the delay couldn't be helped. I know I may have a reputation for being a few minutes late sometimes but I never meant to be this late!

All 10 videos loaded...they may not have titles yet but they're loaded. Now we'll see if I have any luck making them public as that was a hassle last round.

So give me 2 more minutes and we'll roll...

Posted by: crpalmi Nov 12 2010, 10:46 PM

That's it guys...does anyone know of any guaranteed case hit? I'll look into it as we certainly had some nice stuff but didn't really see a WOW hit that I was hoping for.

What are the opinions on this product?

Posted by: MWS Nov 12 2010, 11:31 PM

Its just not worth 160 bucks a box.

Posted by: Gottabe Nov 12 2010, 11:31 PM

Unless they subbed the Booklet...Pretty sure it was a 1/1 or Triple auto per 9 box and both in an 18 set case.

Posted by: Gottabe Nov 12 2010, 11:35 PM

Odds per the Blowout Cards... 1 each per 18 bx case, doesn't mean 1 per 9..

Guess I got really lucky on mine. Better quit while I'm ahead. Didn't care much for the base. Player wise I think it's alway 150 or so, which means for lots of parallel space.

Posted by: crpalmi Nov 12 2010, 11:36 PM

I just looked on Blowouts description and they say the 1/1 and triple auto is one per 18 box case but nothing about the 9 box case. I've got to believe they mean one of those per 9 box case so I will call Topps tomorrow and see if they will do something for us?

Posted by: want2bet Nov 12 2010, 11:37 PM

I did good , and I still hate the product. Just my opinion.

Posted by: crpalmi Nov 12 2010, 11:38 PM

In the meantime...thanks again to all who participated and congrats to those that got some nice hits. The cards will be out on Monday and we'll look forward to SPx hopefully next weekend?

usually there is one or the other in each 9 boxer, sometimes more, thats the first time I have ever seen neither, save the upc's and call topps for sure.

some good autos but not a single patch.

thanks for the show chris

Just being honest, if I could buy all of the hits at auction maybe $100.

Maybe next time we up the price and make it a 2 team slot pick.
That way there are only 16 participants for 18 hits (9 Bx).
The case was in my thoughts, below average and lots of participants got shutout from GU or Auto. Sort of makes the break seem worse, but with only X number of hits, lots of us took a chance that the odds weren't really good anyhow.
Still, It's fun to watch.

My break was saved by Manning again so thanks for the PC item but as far as the case goes it really wasn't good at all. The Rookie Autos don't even sell well out of this product so we got killed on this one. I hope they can do something for us on the 1/1 or triple auto because that is what we were all looking forward to the most and unfortunately it never happened. Well Chris thanks again for another smooth break. Looking forward to SPX next weekend hopefully.

I look at it a little different. I look at the box breaks as getting my moneys worth out of a product. For what TTT costs $140-160 and you get 2 hits that have together would insure in my collection for 1 3rd the cost of the box. That happens with 90% of the boxes. I'm mean come on 10 Boxes of this stuff and not one hit that would book over $80. No 1/1, Patches or Trip Auto out of those 10 boxes.

Don't get me wrong I'm happy to get the hits I did as some people didn't get anything but I for one have and will avoid this stuff when I buy boxes.

I agree with most of what's said. I have never been a fan of this product as the price point is way too high for what you get. I do know that there are alot of faithful TTT fans out there though which is why this one was on the list. My hope is that Topps will be responsive and still deliver a case hit if e were due one on a 9 box case but either way it's still overpriced.

Just got a mailer from Topps with our case hit. Not the best but a hits a hit. The Triple Auto as our last hit of the break goes to Manzeye;
