I've got a box and a half of SPGU next to the keyboard. The other half box is on hold for me at the card shop til tomorrow. Didnt grab enough cash on the way out the door today I guess.

I'm start at 6:25. Will do one pack at a time, starting with the full box.

Any CBJ pulled will be for the personal collection, or sold locally.

The big hits (if there are any) will likely be for sale as opposed to trade.

Any red wings pull (unless i know my buddy has it) will be NFT.

Anything else will be for trade for 08-09 CBJ.

Cool. I'll be watching. Good luck!

Ill watch too... pull something Jordan Staal to trade to me.

Made it just in time :)

Ok, Pack 1:

Pelletier Rc (hawks)
Anton Stastny jersey (both white)
Derek Roy base

Pull some Flyers!

Pack 2:

Chris Porter RC (blues)
Kiprusoff dual jersey (black/white)
Iginla base

I sent you a pm earlier, hopefully you can reply at the end of your break

Rookie hot box?

Pack 3:
Niskala RC (tampa) - Seriously I've hit like 5 of this guy, every 2nd box I've opened
Gilmour dual jersey (blue/teal)
Crombeen RC (dallas)

Looking like a rookie hot box to me.

Rookie hot box?

Hope there's a sweet Giroux card in there!

Nothing wrong with having a rookie hot box :winking0071:

Pack 4:

Foster RC (leafs)
Weight dual jersey (both blue)
Michael Frolik Rookie Exclusives Auto /100

Nice hit on the Frolik

Pack 5:
Brandon Sutter RC
Modano Base
Ryan Malone dual jersey /50 (black/white)

I guess that means no patches. :(

Still a good box though, even without a patch

Pack 6:
Phaneuf Gold /100
Justin Williams dual jersey (red/white)
Fitzgerald RC (canucks)

So, the first box was not what I'd call awe inspiring, but ok, I guess. The jerseys other than the stastny are all new to me, and mostly two color so not the worst break ever. Easily the worst box of this I've opened now, time for the 3 packs.

Wasn't the worst, but could have been better, hopefully something good is in the 3 packs!

Loose Pack 1:

I open the end of the pack first to see if theres a patch. There is in this pack, so I'll save this til last. Dont know whats in it, but I hope its not one of those jersey/patch combos. those have all sucked that Ive gotten so far.

Hopefully its a nice patch!

Loose Pack 2:

No patch.
Marion Gaborik dual jersey (green/gold). nice.
Backstrom gold /100 - Minny hot box I guess
Crombeen RC

Nice pack

nice gaborik pull

Loose Pack #3:

Pelletier RC (hawks) - Didn't I just pull one of these? Checking. Yep.
Lidstrom dual jersey red/white - My guy Wings will love this. NFT. $ in the bank
Vanek Pominville dual auto - 18/25 - Nicest dual I've pulled yet.

Awesome hit on the dual auto. Walter Sobchak would most likely be interested in that

Now back to loose pack #1.

The other 2 packs had cards /100, and patches are /25, so I am glad I have the other half on hold at the dealer. Looks like a /100 hotbox, which are the best ones. Hopefully I'll hit another big RC or Auto.

Anyways...

Porter RC (blues) Didnt I just pull this too? Checking. Yep! Huge RC set, and I get doubles
3 base, including Lemieux, Gagne, and Kari Let one in (Lehtonen)...

Ok, now time to look at the patch.

Ovechkin / Backstrom 4/25

Each is 2 colors. Ovie as blue on black, Backstrom is black and white.

Makes me wish Id taken the other box first. But I guess this way I have 3 good packs to look forward to tomorrow.

Overall the box + the 3 packs was a great break!

Yeah I should make up ground on the first box with the rest of the second. It's definitely /100 hot box. This will be my 3rd one, 4 rookie hot boxes, and then the rest were and the other 3 were just regular.

Wow what a great patch. Congrats! Scans?

Sometime this evening on the scans. Im lazy about scanning.

Sweet break!!! Congrats

Nice Patch

Very Nice Hit on the Ovy/Backstrom
Congrats

Thanks. I'm gonna throw it on eBay today PM after work. Im gonna pick up the other 3 packs assuming my eBay comes in. Definitely a /100 hot box based on the cards so far. Should be one more auto, and probably another patch (every one of my /100 boxes has at least a dual patch and a patch/jersey).

Sweet break!!!

Actually is a jersey/auto hot box according to Upper Deck. There are rookie hot boxes and jersey/auto hot boxes.

They call it a jersey/auto hotbox I guess, but every pack has something numbered /100. In this box, the one pack only had the nice Gaborik jersey, but the good card was the /100 backstrom.

Very nice break. Congrats and GL on the last 3 packs

my first box was the best for me so far, my 2nd box was a /100 hot box and my 3rd box was a rookie hot box...I'm going for a 4th later this week and a box of Black...then I'm done till The Cup is released where I'll do 3 tins. can't wait to hear whats left in that other box

nice break

me too, excited. Got in the paypal to buy 2 packs, just waiting for the funds to get the 3rd before i go to card shop.

i've done I think this is my 8th box, maybe?

Im going to get a little Ice and a little SPA, and then hopefully 2 tins of the Cup.

if i was here to make you feel good id say great breaks.. but to me that first box was aweful.

Yeah the first box was very mediocre. Thankfully Im trading pieces of it to PC collectors for CBJ stuff I can work towards getting my money back on.

The second box ended up being a weird box. 3 more rookies, so it too was a "rookie hot box", and only 1 more /100 card Andrew Ebbetts. The 3 jerseys were decent, including a 2 color Koivu.

The good news is that he's 3 more boxes coming for me at the cheapest he's had them yet, which is about the same price I've seen on Blowout and other sites. Just gotta selle enough between now and then :D
