Outline · [ Standard ] · Linear+ BASEBALL BOXBUSTERS - AUGUST BREAK, BREAK WEDNESDAY 9PM EST

[5toosweet]

Ever want to join a box break club and your favorite team is never available? Been there, done that. Well this is your chance to join and pick your team favorite. A couple of friends and I decided to start are own box break club because of the limited good teams available. Actually I encourage other TCC members to start their own Box break club so all members don't have to wait for their team to become available.


Now lets take a look at the club rules:
(These rules may seem similar to another clubs rules, its just what my friends and I agreed upon)

1. $25 a team, $22 for any additional team.
2. PayPal payments only.
3. Club members will give input on what boxes to purchase.
4. Videos will be made of each box break and will be broadcast LIVE on UStream.
5. Team owners have first choice to either hold on to their team or choose an unclaimed team for the following month.
6. If a member does not reclaim their team(s) and does not participate in the break the following month, then their team(s) will be forfeited that month.

Our objective is to make all our club members happy. We want to make sure we send everyone a hit or two. Hits are classified as Game Used, Autographs, Printing Plates, serial numbered cards, refractors of all sorts, and redemptions. So, box preference is crucial. I will try to mix it up with at least 1 high end box, several middle to low end boxes, and 1 rookies box.

*****Rules for members with claimed teams:*****

1. There will be a deadline date for claiming teams.
2. Once deadline for claiming teams has passed, the members of the group will have a 5 day period in which they can pick up any other remaining teams at a special $10 price. The discounted teams do not carry over into the next month.
3. The extra teams that are picked will count towards the random drawing.

Rules for cards from unclaimed teams:

1. Hits from these teams will be randomly distributed to members by drawing names out of a hat and will be done live on ustream.
2. Claiming more than one team does increase your odds of winning.
3. Once you have been awarded an unclaimed hit, your name will be removed from the drawing (unless you have claimed more than 1 team).
4. If there are more unclaimed hits than members/claimed teams, then there will be a second round of drawings.
5. Unclaimed base cards will be distributed to all members randomly and will not be done live nor taped.

More deciding rules:

1. Cards with multiple teams represented will be decided by drawing names out of a hat between the owners of the teams on the card.
2. Cards with a player that is wearing a different jersey than what card says goes to team depicted on card, not by jersey.
3. Cards with a player in their minors/college/USA jersey will go to the team they were drafted by.


If, by chance, your team does not pull any base cards I will send u cards from my PC of your claimed teams.

There you go. Thats bout it. If there are any changes or additions in the rules, they will be posted here on the thread.

2007 Donruss EEE- $122 (4 hits)
2008 Masterpieces-$34 (2 hits)
2009 Ticket To Stardom-$64 (3 hits)

$490 and 15 hits... (kind of hard with a 6 hits and 270 dollar product but as usual I was bored..LOL)

Alright batman. Im calling you out!

I think you need to tell us how much you sold your 09 SPA Derek Jeter RC Buyback Auto #/93 for.

Any guesses?

[NYStateOfMind1976]

I would hope it was at least 1000...

I know when it pained me to sell mine earlier this year I get over a grand and a bunch of cards...
Honestly I have regretted it ever since even though I got some real nice PC stuff..

I saw one was a best offer of 499.99. PLEASE TELL ME THAT WAS NOT IT!! I would have covered that...

Yes that was it. I didn't want to sell it. But I had no choice.
