Grabbed Detroit in a 20 box master of 18/19 SP Game Used hockey. This is a product I typically like, and Detroit has a ton of rookies in products this year so I gave it a shot. Paid $55 for the spot and did pretty well!

First off the base parallels. Would have been cool to get a true rookie, but these are nice as well.

Then a couple of smaller hits. I like Hicketts, though not sure he'll stick with the team long term. The Rasmussen jersey is cool.

These next two came from back to back boxes! I don't think they were the same inner case, though, the breaker just happened to open them up that way. The jersey came first, then the patch! Cholowski looks to be a mainstay for the Wings future D.

Would have been happy with just the above two, but then there was this beauty!

And there you have it. I can't decide whether to keep everything or to try to sell one or two things to make the money back and get the rest for free. Probably all of them will end up in the PC. I tend to move things, then immediately regret it lol. Thanks for the look!

I'm using flickr. I use the embed code, then I shave off all the rest of the code apart from the url that ends in ".jpg". If I do that it it works through the forums embed photo feature. Hope that makes sense. I moved from Photobucket to Flickr and have liked it way better.

Thanks all!

Definitely happy with the results. For half the price of a box I got more than a full box's worth of good stuff that I actually will keep in the collection!

Just for the sake of conversation, do you guys prefer to open boxes or group breaks? I honestly can't decide. I like the mystery and hope of opening up a box of my own, but I seem to get more luck in group breaks - like I come closer to breaking even or coming out ahead more often, or at least not regretting the purchase. With boxes, I find I often find myself wishing I would have just bought singles instead. Group breaks, though, there's always the chance you can end up with nothing...

I prefer my own boxes most of the time, that way I get to decide what I keep, however for stuff like SPGU or better stuff where the box is too much or too risky, I will do a break if affordable.
