Timeless Treasures Q&A with Panini America Football Brand Manager Carlos Torrez

How did you approach the monumental task of creating the premiere edition of Timeless Treasures Football?
"Ask any serious collector and they'll tell you that 'Timeless Treasures' is one of the most beloved high-end set names of all time, bar none. But it's never before been done in football. So this product signifies a history-making opportunity - both for us internally in terms of being able to create from the ground up the first Timeless Treasures Football release, but also for collectors in terms of the opportunity to collect it. And trust me, they will want to collect it."

What are some of your favorite aspects of this unique set?
"That's a really tough question because there's a lot of wow-worthy stuff packed into these tins, which themselves are collectible with four different versions. We've really gone above and beyond in attempting to tie historically significant game-worn memorabilia with the years in which it was worn for the MVP Materials, Rookie Year Materials and Game Day Souvenirs inserts. The autograph and cut-autograph checklists are second to none and our special tribute to the legendary Jim Thorpe is spot on in Timeless Treasures. I could go on and on, but those are among my favorite things. I hope collectors feel the same way."

Instructions:
This group break is going to be done as a card draft break. After you post your interest in a slot number, I will put your name in the list. After it is filled and paid, I will randomize the MEMBER SLOT LIST. That will give us our card draft order. After we break the case, all the cards will be listed and we will "draft" the cards in the order that we come out. According to the product details, there will be 60 hits in the product and several base, parallel or insert cards. If the product is as described, ALL slots will receive two "hits" and a handful of base/inserts/parallels.

Once you have your slot locked, this is a binding deal. Anyone backing out after the team is locked will receive a negative feedback rating and will not be permitted to participate in future group breaks.

The price for each individual slot is $66 delivered. This covers the case, shipping, and new toploaders/sleeves/teambags/bubble mailers for these cards.

People outside of the U.S. are welcome to join, however, delivery confirmation isn't affordable on packages going outside the U.S. I can't be responsible if these get lost, but I would be happy to get international tracking if you pull something really nice and wanted to get that security of having it tracked at your expense. The packages will be properly packaged and supported by myself and sent with DC. Insurance is OPTIONAL. If you would like to purchase insurance, you may. Otherwise, I am NOT responsible for damage done by the USPS.

There is a limit of four (4) slots per member.

Once you have posted your interest in a slot (pick a slot position), I will post the trade with payment information inside. Once you confirm the trade, IT IS A BINDING DEAL. Payment is expected within THREE DAYS of confirmation. If you do not pay before the three days expire, you will lose your slots. If you pay and the group break doesn't fill, a proper refund will be given! That will get this process rolling much faster!

If you trade or sell your slot to another member on SCF and you post a trade in the trade manager for the transaction, the cards will go to the original owner of the slot who will then be responsible for shipping the cards to the new owner of the slot. This prevents anyone from receiving feedback for technically not doing anything.

Once all members have paid the product will be ordered and the randomization will occur. All randomization will be done live via blogtv to prevent any problems that may occur. The break will be done live at www.blogtv.com/people/rchurchward
