One autograph per pack means 8 autographs available for the four positions. I am not responsible if a card is shorted in the box.

Draft order positions will be first come first serve. Reply to this thread with your position of interest.

After the draft order position is finalized I will request payments and post the deals in the trade manager. The break will then proceed.

Once the draft begins, you have 18 hours to make a pick. If pick #1 is made, pick #2 must be made in 18 hours and so forth. If you do not pick a card within 18 hours I will autodraft for you.

You are more than welcome to trade draft picks. All trades must be posted and confirmed by both members in this thread. I will also allow trades to be done after the break. You have 24 hours from the end of the break to do this.

If you are a participant in the first group break I ask that you hold off on signing up for this one. I would like to give others an equal opportunity to participate in a group break. If this doesn't fill up by the time the product is released then you can join in on this break too. Thank you.

I would like in. 2nd spot please

#3 and #4 positions available.

I'll take Position 3, thanks

-arfmax

I'll take the 4th spot also. Thanks

If you get a 3rd break of this off I would like spot 1 pls. Thx!

I'll take the 4th spot also. Thanks


Currently limiting it to one spot per member. I apoligize for not specifying that in my original post. Trying to give equal opportunity to SCF members. If the 4th draft position doesn't fill by Sunday night, it is all yours.

i'll take the 4th spot. what do I need to do?

If you get a 3rd break of this off I would like spot 1 pls. Thx!


Will let you know if I do a third one. Thanks for the interest.

i'll take the 4th spot. what do I need to do?

Sent you and other participants a PM.

---------------------------------------------------

If any of you wish not to participate in this group break I must know by Sunday night. Thank you.

pm sent back.

Paid! ty

All payments received.

Release date has been pushed back three weeks to 4/15! Man, we were just a few days away from the expected release. :(

Still on track for a 4/15 release date.

Ash if you decide to do a third box of this stuff I'd be very interested in the 1st spot. Thanks!

I may do a third group break after the set releases but the #1 spot is already on hold for another member.

Any objections if I did this on video? May need the proof in case we're shorted a card. UD has been shorting their stuff lately. Topps is reliable, but you never know.

How does it work if you do it on video? Do we watch the video and then make our picks after that. How long do we have to make each pick? What happens to the left over cards? I am very excited about this product. Do you think that you will get the boxes on the 15?

I'll break the box on video to show what was in each pack. Scans of all non base cards will be posted and a list of all pulls will be provided. Then the draft will begin. All cards will be drafted by you and the other participants in order.

Product will be released on the 15th but it has to ship out to me.

Thanks, I am excited!

No objections to video, as long as scans are provided, as well as a textual list

Thanks

arfmax

Box is in hand. Release date delivery! I will have the scans and video up later tonight.

I am very excited!

-arfmax

Results with scans added.

Draft begins now! cdpowell34 is on the clock.

I've got the break on video if you want me to upload it to youtube. lmk

Btw, scans and card results in the first post.

whoever gets the Perkins auto please pm me!! I NEED IT!!!! LOL!!!

pretty nice, any box without a nick young auto is a good box lol.

I will take the Jerry West auto

I will go with the Spencer Haywood.........What a bad break by the way.

I would have loved to be in this break with 2 Laker Autos pulled...

With the third overall selection, I will take the Sam Perkins /1189 Autograph.

Thanks

-arfmax

Its a nice looking set but it lacks the auto depth that I'm sure we all expected. Plus, the autos are way too high numbered. Ridiculous.

Product sell sheet did a good job of hiding how the autos are mass produced. Yi Jianlin, Nick Young, Thaddeus Young is proof.

Yeah...I think this is the sole result of Topps dumping off autos they had saved with the Panini deal now in place....

All autographs off the board

cdpowell is on the clock

Please subscribe to this thread! That way we can get this done faster.
