    It's a dude, kinda freaky.
  • Well my Les Miles redemption card did not sell on eBay so what should I do with it? Should I redeem it then sell for a higher price or just try and sell it again as it is? Thanks
  • PM sent my new friend Aragorn

  • I am glad I did not pick up those blasters I saw in Shreveport today. At the Barksdale Blvd. Wal-Mart if anyone is interested.
  • S'port/Barksdale Walmart? That is about 2 miles from me.
  • They had 6 there about noon today.
  • They have 2 now. Thanks. I hate you. Went to just look and ended up spending $250. I hate Walmart!!

  • Still haven't seen any blasters in Fort Worth at Wal Mart or Target. Oh well I don't think I am going to buy unless someone gets some really good pulls
  • First box wasn't bad. Got a nice little pull I am trying to scan but my stupid scanner is mad at me.
  • Not bad for a box from Walmart. I have no idea about the SP's and minis. This was my first box of A&G.

    Dang I really wanted to pull one of those so I could show you image

    << <i>Dang I really wanted to pull one of those so I could show you image >>



    If you do, I'll still be interested!

    Edited to Add:

    Yes Doran, 01/10...if it isn't numbered high enough to snag #35, I always go for #1 or the inverse of the print run (ie 0005/5000).

    I guess there is hope for the blasters yet...crossing fingers Lockwood is able to come through.

    If you're selling, I'd just go with a $100- $125 BIN / or BO.

    My dad and I bought a blaster a piece tonight at target. I didn't do so well,but my dad blew away the odds on the minis...one icon and one
    team orange.

    I'm once again on the road, so I may need a few extra days on trades, still keep the offers coming. I could also use any non-baseball
    player auto if you have any.

    Thanks

  • mosaicmosaic Posts: 700
    Did you mean A&G back minis on those "bazooka" minis? Or did you actually pull 8 pink, numbered bazookas out of one blaster?

    I'm guessing you meant A&G ad backs with the Old Planter dude on 'em.

    If not, Walmart blasters rock this year...
    Nolan Ryan & Edgar Martinez are my favorite players...
