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 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 the forum.
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.

The Red Sox have been claimed by pwolantern according to the waiting list. The Cubs have become available because no one on the waiting list did not want them at this time.

This is gonna be a Nov/Dec break. With vacations/lack of funds/holidays I thought having the break in between Thanksgiving and Christmas was the best option. It was gonna be really hard to do the breaks at the end of the month, as we have been doing, with the holidays at the end of each month. Thats the reason that I waited a little longer before I posted this topic. We are lookin at a Dec 9-12 break.

So, I need some suggestions for this break. What do u guys think about Topps Unique?

Maybe 09 Sweet Spot?

With the failure of members not picking up teams they are on the waiting list for I have decided this will be the last month for the waiting list. With the January break we will start with a first come, first serve policy for unclaimed teams.

There is some suggestions I have taken under advisement that might become permanent in the coming months. If u have suggestions on making this break even better please pm me with those suggestions.

-Abel

I am back with my teams

Gotcha down. Thanks!

Hey hey, i'm in with the Marlins (as you know) and i'll pick up the Cubs

Just to make it official, I am in with the Red Sox!

in with the twins again might pick another team once boxes pick

mike

I'm back with the Cardinals.

Thanks for checking in fellas.

Hey Abel, did you notice that i would like the Cubs?

I'm in with the mets again.

I have a quickie to suggest: 2009 Finest. I love that product so much, and at $65 or so on blowoutcards this makes for an awesome box break.

Also, I would like to see a box of '09 Ballpark Collection in there for high end stuff.

Sorry. I must have forgot to edit that.

Thanks for the reminder.

Thanks for the suggestions.

I will try to incorporate them into this months option lists.

hey im back with my team and i will like to pick up the Mariners

Thanks for pickin up another team. I will make sure we will not include 08 SPX in the options. LOL

What about the possibility of 09 Triple Threads. They look really nice this year.

I will add them to the options.

They do look nice. Lets hope they come down in price when its time to order.

Im in with the White Sox again!

Gotcha down. Thanks.

no no no i think we need to get some more spx

I'm in again.

Gotcha down.

Thanks!

i would love to get in on this for the dodgers if its open.

just my 2 cents

unique looks awesome but might not ship in time, TTT just dropped to 150, finest gets 2 letter autos for 65, 09 SPA gets 3 autos/2 will be BY THE LETTER

I definitely would like to see '09 finest opened. Even if you don't get a letter patch auto there is still one low-numbered parallel per box. I've been seeing 1 red parallel /10 out of most boxes and at least one green /99. Well worth it in my opinion.

Shameless plug, I'm opening 3 boxes of this stuff on my youtube most likely tonight if you want a taste of the product.
