2007 Donruss Elite Box

[antuany]

When I picked up the last box of Gridiron Gear (which ended up being a hot box – see previously posted thread) from a dealer at a card show on Saturday, he mentioned that Classics & Elite weren’t really selling, and while he was asking $90 a box, he could go down to $80 on either of them. To thank him for the hot box, I drove back the 30-45 on Sunday to pick up a box. With only two GUs/Autos. in the Elite, vs. three in the Classics, it was an internal debate, but chose Elite. I decided to go for the newer players rather than a lot of the older “Legends” in Classics.

Pack 1:
Javon Walker, Matt Hasselbeck, Aaron Ross R.C. 57/599, Steve McNair, Chad Pennington

Pack 2:
Steve Smith, Randy Moss

……WHOA…it’s Brady Quinn & it’s AUTOGRAPHED!!!!

It ends up being a Turn of the Century Autograph of Brady Quinn 54/100. Quadruple that original $50 estimate – not bad for an $80 box.

I also got base Willie Parker & Brett Favre in that pack.

I’m not sure where the box can go from here, but I’ll post the rest anyway:

The Palmer GU & most of the inserts are for trade. I might buy another box to try to complete the base set, so the base isn’t for trade yet.

If interested in anything, photobuckets are blocked, so please let me know who you have of the following:
Brett Favre, Terrell Owens, Devin Hester, Garrett Wolfe, Greg Olsen, Adrian Peterson (Vikings), Brady Quinn, James Jones, Calvin Johnson, some Marshawn Lynch, some Trent Edwards, Bears GUs/autos, & other GUs/autos that catch my eye.

I’m also looking for any 2007 Gridiron Gear Rookie Gridiron Gems dual JSYs that I don’t have.
