2005 topps football

After a hot day on the internet poker tables on Friday, I decided to go down to the card shop and treat myself to a pack or two of cards. I ended up buying an entire jumbo box of 2005 topps football. I could've spent another $40 and went for a box of 2005 donruss classics and increased my chances of hitting a nice card but went with the cheaper box, and the brand that would be more fun and likely to put a set together with my son.

The box yielded zero big pulls (as expected) but also left me a few dozen short of the set. I realize it's not a high dollar set, but I hate having 90% of a set done. It's easier just to finish so I can put it away and get it off my desk.

I don't want to buy another box or two to get it finished so if any of you out there have a few extras and are willing to trade to complete your own set, please LMK or PM me.

I did buy two packs of 2005 donruss. Got a nice Ronnie Brown numbered to 999 and a Dan Marino jersey in the other #'ed to 150. Maybe I should've went with that box instead.

  • Don't question yourself on not buying the Classics box BigRed, you probably pulled the two best cards out of the box for about a eighth of the price image
