Can't wait for my two boxes of SP Authentic! :)

VERY nice pull!!
I've got 2 boxes of SP Authentic coming in myself - I can't wait!

Andrew, where did you buy yours from and what price did you get? I bought mine on eBay for $86 a piece.

Wow. $86 is really good.

I was going to go the eBay route, but Dacardworld had them for $99, and I had a $10 coupon, so I couldn't resist. I've had my best luck from their boxes, so I just had to.

I actually only ordered one, saving the other for tomorrow (5% off, and I have another coupon). I shoulda ordered both tomorrow, but I didn't want to risk having them sell out.

Yeah, Upper Deck is already sold out of the product. I made sure I got my order on a presell real quick. The guy on ebay has like 40k feedback and 99.4% so I was like, eh, sure for $86 x 2 + $12 shipping I was happy. He said he would be getting his cases on Friday. I can't wait to see the letterman patch autos. If I get a Vlad or Wright I'll let you know.

They came out already? Man, I may have to buy some.

Those are the ones with a "Letterman" autos per box right?

I figure they must have good decoys then? Im sure you could fat pack to find it otherwise, knowing UD, they probably didnt disguise them so unless your the first to buy, your not gonna get them packwhise.

I may have to get a box, nice Maddux!

If all goes well, I should be getting a box tomorrow - looks like dacardworld didn't ship them yet, so I'm pretty mad.

No Wright in the set - he's exclusive with Topps - made me so mad.

I'll keep you in mind if I get the Papelbon.

Thanks! I have never pulled an auto from loose packs. The best I have pulled from loose packs is a Frank Thomas Printing Plate. (Which I traded for a Manny Printing Plate) :)

Wow, thanks for the list Andrew, I'll look for the Vlad for you then :)

There are some big names in that letterman list!

Nice hit on the maddux auto.

Yeah, really nice pull on the Maddux. Good luck on your SP Authentic boxes as well.

nice pull dude!

Hmm, I might want to sell it so I can buy something for my PC :)

Wow - you totally gotta sell it.
BY the way, if you pull a Vlad Letterman, lemme get first crack :)

I've got a Papelbon Auto I could send your way...

Which auto do you have Andrew?

His 2006 Co-Signers Solo Sigs.

Cool. I have his Co-Signers Dual with Breslow. I'll definitely give you first crack on a Vlad if I pull one.

The SPx base is available. I'm not going to move the SP Authentic base until my 2 boxes get here. I want to make sure I get at least one complete set of the base.

Since the last one sold so I high I put mine up on eBay as well. Hopefully I'll get around the same so I can buy something nice for my personal collection.
