    Fun fact, Joyce is wearing a '63 White Sox uni here. (recognized it by the dark blue/red number on the sleeve). He pitched for the Sox in '62 and '63.

    I almost moved on that 150 Gibson auto, decent price I think.

    I hit a few more blasters and pulled ink and a few other nice cards. Pics to follow.

    Picked up 5 blasters from Wally World. No huge hits, but interesting not was that every one of the five blasters had three SP's in them. Got four chromes, and two were Royals so that was a bonus for me.

    Great to see pics. posted. Walt is on a roll, needs to slow down, and leave some leftovers. Craig in Ohio

    I'm here. Finally decided to go the case route. Made more sense than overpaying for 5-6 boxes a ton of retail and still not completing a set. My case should be here tomorrow. Dallas is dry on retail at least the 4 Targets and Wal Marts I checked last night. Will check again today.

    Was that Olt/Profar card a regular Chrome or a refractor Kevin? I'm interested if it's a regular Chrome.

    From what I have seen the chrome are pulling in nice shape. I can't say that about the base cards. It always seems to be that they chromes and black chromes have decent centering
    also. Black refractors are about 3 times as hard to pull than autographs this year.

    Heritage retail is live in Jacksonville.

    Got a blaster and two rack packs and these were my hits:

    David Wright Refractor / numbered to 581 or so.
    Matt Kemp (no. 450) Venezuelan parallel
    Alex Gordon Clubhouse Collection patch card
    Josh Hamilton Blue Parallel (Walmart)

    Got 3 high number short prints from the blaster and 1 from one of the rack packs. A couple of Flashbacks, one New Age Performer and a Then & Now. No Memorable Moments, Bryce Harper, Trout, Bundy RC or Profar RC.

    Now to wait for my Heritage boxes to arrive later this week.

    We will have to see how it goes this year, but usually a case leaves you about 2-4 cards short.

    Trying to build a set through retail has to be really tough...the short print seeding doesn't appear to have any rhyme or reason...

    Will be doing this set and next years as well.

    I'm on vacation in Arizona for some spring training games. I found four blasters and a full, unopened retail box at Walmart on 75th Ave in Tolleson. The biggest hit was a Pumpsie Green blue auto. Also got one refractor, four chromes, and nineteen high number sp's. I have a case coming from Blowout; hope it's home when I get back.

    LOL 5 boxes. I have a hobby review up on my blog. Here are some pics of the best hits. I was very pleased.

    The two big hits.

    Every case has a purple refractor hot box. 1 purple per pack and VERY fun to open when you are hitting guys like this

    Walt, I am interested in the Freese red auto if it is available ?

    I picked up 5 blasters and a few rack packs. No big hits, but did ok overall. Something to pass the time on a snowy day in IL.

    2 Chrome
    5 Chrome refractors
    2 Black Back
    1 clubhouse collection relic (adam dunn)
    1 red border card per blaster.

    Have not gone through the number of SP's yet.

    I am looking for Cardinals black back cards if anyone pulls any.

    Ok, I wasn't sure if you were trading or selling. Honestly, I don't have much to trade as I do not open a lot of packs/boxes. If you don't end up trading and want to sell it at some point, maybe we can work something out.

    No blasters at my target, but there was a gravity feed box, so I picked up 20 packs to dip my foot in the water.

    So whats Kurt's heritage name this year? Zorro? Clete? Merritt? Boog? Grover? Amado? Denver? Bo? Gates? Lindy?

    7 SPs in my 20 packs (including Trout), and a Rickie Weeks Venezuelan back. How SP are the Vens? Also, no chrome in 20 packs which I thought was odd.
