some BK pack breaks (just FYI)

bought 24 packs of 2002-03 Fleer Genuine BK and 25 packs of 2002-03 Fleer Showcase BK. These weren't original boxes, but consisted of the remainders at a shop that mixes boxes together.
The Fleer Genuine was weird. Even though GU cards are expected 1 in every 6 packs, I got 0 GU cards. I also ran well short on inserts (2 Names of the Game (1:8 packs), 1 Global Warning (1:12 packs), and nothing else).
However, I got 4 rookies #/2002 (C. Butler, Dixon, Dickau, and F. Jones), and 4 more rookie redemption cards (#/2002 - Gooden, Boozer, and 2 others who aren't listed in Beckett). The rookie redemptions are listed as expiring last month, but I have an email in to Fleer to find out if they will still honor them. I don't think that rookies occurred 1:3 packs overall in Genuine, so if Fleer will honor the redemptions, this worked out well for me.
The Fleer Showcase was excellent (although there was edge chipping on a number of the cards). I got 2 rookies #/1500 (C. Jacobsen and F. Jones), a Vince Carter Legacy Collection #/1000, and 6 GU cards (GU are expected 1:6 packs) - Vince Carter Legacy Collection jersey, Jason Kidd Basketball's Best Gold 1/100, Kenyon Martin Basketball's Best Gold 96/100, and Mike Miller, D. Miles, and Pierce Basketball's Best.

It dawned on me that I forgot to mention 1 insert in Fleer Showcase - the "unimportant one" - a Jefferson Basketball's Best non-GU.
