2 Box Break of Panini Hobby --- Not good looking!

[Care4Card]

Hey y'all,

So far Panini was mostly good, I think, for the hobby. It's not perfect but they are trying something.

So, with a great discount, I tried 2 boxes of their 'cheapest' release, The Panini Hobby Box with 32 packs of 12 cards per box.

Box Break, on average, 1 Auto per box.

My Breaks?

NO AUTOS ON 2 BOXES.

I was expecting absolutely nothing out of these boxes but this was below nothing. I didn't even bothered sorting the bases to see if I had a full set (same with the rookies), I just piled them up and got mad.

Nevertheless, here is the result of this wonderful experience. Hope I'll get better luck with my upcoming Thread Box that I've won.

* A Bunch of Stickers, If you need any just ask I probably have it. I won't list em.

As for the Rookies, at 1 a pack I think I have a master set (I hope), I'll sort them through but some packs had two rookies so that's 65+ rookies for this year.

When you scan inserts, you know you had a rough time.

All for trade, except the Mutombo Insert

Ouch, you should contact Panini, they're really good about shorted hits.

Still, lots of nice inserts and rookies.

I actually like the look of that insert... if only they didn't have that yellow box there. I think they did a good job with Threads coming up with a better logo.

I'd contact Panini and see if they'll do anything for you. If you still have the packs and the box UPC they should hook you up with something. Please let me know if you see anything for the Derrick Rose Headliner insert.

What would you trade for hit?

I don't really collect inserts but if you have some RCs of Roy Hibbert I might consider.

Or we can work something for a lower end auto.

Let me know and I'll check.

Ouch...I'd definitely contact Panini...they should be able to send you something. Outside of that, you did get some nice inserts!
