    Retail Pack Break Mini MOJO

    Standing in line at Walmart I noticed the retail cards next to me, an started to explain to my daughter that some collectors pack search to find GU or autos. She wanted to know what it was all about so I told her. The next thing you know she has all the packs out of the box and checking to see which ones felt thicker. She found 2 thick packs and I said there probly decoys, were not buying them. I couldnt resist temptation. We opened the packs in the parking lot and this is how we did. Can someone explain to me if the Jeter is a the charcoal version or not.

    I new someone would say something about this whole deal. It least I was honest and didnt try selling them as HOT PACKS on Ebay. Lets see if you buy a head of lettuce do you pick through and grab the best head of lettuce you can find. My daughter did the same thing with the packs. Thought for sure they would be decoys but she insisted that we buy them, she just had to know what she found. Dont worry she's not into collecting and she not going to start packs searching as a carreer so relax Sneekc. It will be OK.

    Thanks everyone for backing me on this. I dont think its wrong either. But Im not going in there at 4:00 in the morning searching packs with a hoodie and sunglsses on. And I,m not selling thes for $30 a pack on ebay either. I appreciate it from all of you. Just found out the Jeter is a retail Short Print and not priced due to scarcity according to Beckett

    There's nothing wrong with a little pack searching. As my good friend told me, if we are the customers and we are going to put up our good money for a hobby, obviously we are going to try and find the best packs possible. Companies are putting thick fake cards in the packs anyway, even though there are still ways to till. A little pressure to the middle of the pack always does the trick for me. Plus. Some store owners complain that there won't be any good cards left for anyone else? There's an easy solution to that. As the store owner, just don't tell the customer if any good cards have been pulled from the box or not. Because as aharvey said to that guy. People will still feel up the packs/ pack search, and believe that they felt something. And a good amount of the time people are wrong.

    My point is. It's not that big of a deal. I don't really buy many packs anymore anyway, unless its from Tony and that's obviously not pack searching.

    Nice pulls though!
