What would you do with a case of, TRIPLE THREADS BASEBALL

NBAFan

Mike you should make this a "Super Sunday" and open up the 5 remaining boxes you are planning on opening.

julen23

this is certainly 1 of the most entertaining modern case busts i've ever read.

we should've taken odds on you busting entire case vs selling off some of it.

you should probably have a majority of this set completed or not?

SoFLPhillyFan, Thanks for the info, congrats on your sweet sale.

NBAFan, I use to open all at one time, but found out the enjoyment last longer , if you don't just rip them all right away. Especially when you keep getting exciting stuff, which you like. Going back I think box 4 was the weakest for my taste, but both hit cards has happy new homes, which is what our hobby is all about for me.

julen23, Glad to hear so many are enjoying the break. Anyone that knows me would had put their money on breaking the entire case, they know I'm in this hobby to have fun not looking to make money. I'm not a set builder, so not sure how close to a complete set this case is coming.

Box 13 Yankee auto, YES, and O's, very pleased. This is my first Rivera autograph and another Ripken our O's fans can battle it out for.

Thanks,
Mike

Mikefromchester

Thanks, Mike

NBAFan

Don't you mean 4 more to go, seeing you are still raffling off one on your website?

NBAFan

Mike, was today's pull so great that it left you speechless and you forgot to post?

Mikefromchester

NBAFan, Now 4 more to go, I picked up a box for the raffle off Ebay, with 2 of the chase card gone, I picked up another for the raffle. Glad I did now with all 3 being pulled. I was loaded down with stuff yesterday, that's why I did not do it yesterday.

Box 14, Sorry I played hookie Monday. The White Whale Auto 1/1 has surfaced for my special number collection. Or maybe there's a Damon or Red Sox fan to enjoy it more. And the game used /18 are there any Canseco fans around? We'll do another Pack tonite or Wednesday

It seems like besides the Triple auto, the nicest stuff was in these later boxes. That's a sweet Schmidt and I'm sure there is a collector on these boards that is drooling.
