First of all, anyone have any clean, thick toploaders with no tape marks for trade? Could use some, LOL!
ALL ARE FT BESIDES MORRIS 1/1 AND BRAUN!
Got 3 boxes of 05 Diamond Kings and a box of 07 SPX for Christmas. Here's the god, box by box.
Is it normal for the SPX cards to have a good amount of chipping and worn corners?
05 DK Box 1
Troy Glaus Bat/Jersey 38/100
Kevin Youkilis Bat-Bat 31/200
Not bad, I thought. I liked the Youk. On to Box 2:
05 DK Box 2
Matt Morris Jersey-Jersey 1/1!!!! I went crazy, this is my first 1/1 ever, the first 1/1 I've ever pulled, and it's a player I'm a huge fan of!
Brad Penny Auto/Bat/Jersey 17/25 Loved this card too. Penny seems to follow me around breaking boxes, but I'm not complaining!
I figured I blew my luck on Box 2, but Box 3 had...
05 DK Box 3
Only one hit:
Paul LoDuca Autograph 1/1!!!! Another 1/1! I was now going crazy.
I then opened the box of SPX my dad got me.
Pack 1: (boxloader)
Michael Bourn auto
Pretty good start, I figured.
Pack 2:
Adam LaRoche Jersey 181/199
Eh, not the best.
Pack 3:
Andre Ethier auto
Pretty good, I thought.
Pack 4:
Redemption for Patrick Misch auto.
Who?
Pack 5:
Anibal Sanchez Dual Patch 3/25
Pretty good, a dual patch of a guy who threw a no-hitter.
Pack 6:
Randy Johnson Triple Jersey 1/25 with pinstripe
Love this card, pinstripe is beautiful, and numbered 1/25!
Pack 7:
Felix Hernandez Jersey 174/199
Nice card.
Pack 8:
Dontrelle Willis Jersey 158/175
Pretty pleased with the player selection.
Pack 8: Chris Stewart auto
Not what I had in mind.
Pack 9:
Robinson Cano Jersey 38/199
Better.
Pack 10:
SPX Rooie Autographed Card #120
RYAN FREAKING BRAUN!
I screamed when I saw that card, think I made my mom go deaf. The site says "athete committed to signing soon..." Do you guys think the Braun will be made?
Anyway, scans: All excapt the Misch. (Do you guys really want to see a redeption for Patrick Misch?)
Here are the scans, as I can't post them all here:
