2006 Topps Finest Baseball Box Break

On a rainy Sunday afternoon, I decided to call up my primary baseball card dealer Dan and purchase a few boxes to break. He usually holds some of the older baseball boxes for me as I like to break not just new but older boxes to look for key rookies. One of the boxes he held for me was a box of 2006 Topps Finest, which is a really tough box to find and if you do it could cost you up to 130 to 140 dollars. I got mine for $95, as I have spent a couple thousand dollars with him over the past few months and he always gives me good deals on unopened boxes. There are a bunch of key autographs in these boxes as Barry Bonds, Alex Rodriguez, Chipper Jones and David Wright signed cards for this set. Key autographed rookies are Adam Wainwright, Hong-Chi Kuo, Francisco Liriano and Nelson Cruz. Here is how I did:

Very nice Johjima...too bad he's out of the league now. The Cruz's are nice. He had a good breakout year last year and should repeat this year.
