1 box of 2013-14 UD S2

[Dave71120]

I snagged this box of 13-14 UD S2 off of the Bay for about $60 dlvd, kind of a "Whoops, I didn't really expect to win that... Oh boy..." sort of thing. After busting it, I'm glad I won.

My apologies on some of the pics, I took them at my desk at work and there's some glare on a few I couldn't get rid of. Stupid fluorescent lights...

Anywho, here's what I pulled, mostly in the order I opened the packs. Most is FS, or trade for 13-14 Parise/Coyle/Granlund stuff I don't already have.

OPC Marquee Rookies #638 - Jesper Fast

Oooo... this one's good. See #1 below :-)



1990's Hockey Heroes #HH62 - Mark Messier (PC)
OPC Marquee Rookies #636 - Seth Jones
Young Guns #463 - Mark Arcobello
Ooo... another good one. See #3 below. :-)

Now, for the top 3 hits in my box...

At #3:



A UD Exclusives #97/100, card #396 - Mike Green [Capitals]

At #2:



A UD Canvas Young Guns #C229 - Beau Bennett

And, at #1...

A Rookie MVP #80 - Nathan MacKinnon!

"Wait... sure, that's good, but it's not better than a Canvas Young Guns Beau Bennett." Oh, I'm sorry, I forgot to mention...



It's a Super Script, #21/25!!!!!!!!!

My hands were literally shaking when I saw the MacKinnon. I had to stop for a few minutes and let the adrenaline rush subside, but then 4 packs later I pulled the UD Exclusives, which was cool but not in the same league of cool as the MacKinnon /25. I need to check into this for myself, but I saw a possible BV of around $250 for the MacKinnon. The Bennett YG Canvas was a nice finish, to boot. I think if I would have pulled an auto or a YG Acetate I may have passed out!

This was undoubtedly, hands-down the best box I've ever busted!! I am so thankful that I was finally able to pull "a big one"!

Somewhere out there is a guy really wishing he didn't sell that box for $60. LOL

Congrats on the big hit!

You really gotta love how bidding on a box of cards not expecting to win yields a great card like this. I have pulled a $250 BV card once from a similar situation, but it only sold for $100. Thinking you should get something better than that. Nice hit.

Thx all, I appreciate the kind words! It sure was a great thrill for $60, which of course does nothing but feed my desire to buy more, and also to continue to keep this as quiet as possible with the wife, or else things could get ugly for me...

Bubbling38 and Jim - I'll take a gander at your respective offerings/offers and let you both know. FWIW, I have two kids' baseball tournaments starting tomorrow and going thru the weekend, so there's a chance it could take me a few days to get back to you.
