    Wait until you see this break of $20 Retail A&G - Double Mojo!

    I've never had a retail break like this in my life. My girlfriend just bought a new car and got a great price, so I brought her luck to the card shop and picked up a lowly retail box of A&G. I only really wanted the base since I have a hobby box incoming and I want to build the set. Well was I surprised when this is the box I get (she reached way into the back to grab it btw):

    Rookies:
    Hideki Okajima
    Mark Reynolds

    Mini:
    Jason Bay
    Juan Rivera
    Josh Willingham
    Julio Juarez
    Placido Polanco

    Mini A&G Back:
    Kevin Mench

    Mini Flags:
    United Kingdom

    Dick Perez Sketches:
    Nick Markakis (foreshadowing?)
    Hanley Ramirez
    Roy Halladay

    Other Inserts:
    A-Rod Road to 500 #268

    BUT WAIT, THERE'S MORE....

    Tim Lincecum Mini Black Parallel RC

    BUT WAIT, THERE'S EVEN MORE....

    Nick Markakis Auto

    What a retail box!!!!!

    All are for trade except for the base, at least until I break my hobby box (incoming) and figure out what dupes I have from building my set. My primary interests are in my sig, but I will look at buckets and entertain offers. I'd be happy to trade some minis for other people's minis of players I actually like (Ryan Howard, Chase Utley, Cole Hamels). I will have to use eBay SV as a guide since this product is new and hot. Thanks for looking.

    BBonds - sorry I didn't see anything I need on your site. I'd be looking for a decent RC, not just inserts. This sells for $20+ on eBay. Thanks.

    Did you see Lincecum almost kill Zimmerman last night? I never really understood what everyone sees in him... I don't like his pitching all that much...

    Astros - Everything, except for base, is for trade. My wants are in my sig. If you don't have my PC players, I will consider HOF Autos/GU/Numbered/etc. Look at eBay prices and bring something worthwhile.

    GoRedSox - I remember when he made his MLB debut.... because the Phillies and Hamels smoked him and the lame Giants. I was quite annoyed listening to all the fanfare around Lincecum when I think one of the best pitching prospects in the league was on the mound opposite him, and indeed Hamels took the Giants, Bonds, and Lincecum to school while the best offense in the NL put on a show.

    I've been reading about awfully hot A&G cases. I guess Topps didn't do the best job at packing and boxing out this product. For example, I read on Becket that a guy pulled 2 to 4 autos from every single box he had in his hobby case. So the question is, has anybody heard of the same phenomenon in the retail boxes? In other words, should I go buy all of the retail boxes sitting at my local store? If nothing more, it looks like I could sell them on eBay for more than $20 a pop. Anyway, let me know if anybody has heard of uncommonly hot boxes grouped together in cases. Thanks.
