Topps Heritage Question

I just want to get some opinions from the peanut gallery. I have a sealed box of 2002 Heritage on my desk right now. I bought it pretty cheap with the intention of reselling it, but I've had a long day and haven't busted a box in a while. Any ideas what the odds are of pulling anything decent? Keep in mind this is 02 Heritage, not 04. Any help is appreciated.

    2002 Heritage was a great year, it was a beautiful design modeled after the 1953 topps set. While the
    selection of rookies wasn't as great as this years, it does include one of the best single heritage cards...
    the Laynce Nix rookie. Of course Nix got hurt last night so that doesn't help.

    The autograph checklist is great of course and auto pull odds are good at about one every 5th box. This
    box will be a good one to open and if you ever regret your decision there should be plentiful supply for
    you to buy another if you want....02 has remained one of the more affordable heritage years. Good Luck
    and let us all know what you pull. I would be interested in any auto you pull.

    Click the link to Donwest.org. It will explain the guy.

    Here's what I got:

    New Age Performers- Andruw Jones, Derek Jeter

    Then and Now - Randy Johnson & Robin Roberts, Billy Pierce and Hideo Nomo

    Classic Renditions - Jim Thome, Shawn Green

    Night SPs - Randy Johnson, Ben Sheets, Scott Rolen, Preston Wilson

    SPs - Chipper Jones 37 , Sammy Sosa 220,366, 416, 421, 426, 430, 439, 440, 444, 445

    And the Campanella Ebbets Field Card

    And not a single dup in the whole box. Whether I make my money back or not, it was pretty fun and I'm really impressed with Heritage.

    Not bad! Ten zillion packs in 02 and I NEVER got a Yogi or Willie auto! My wife was going to buy if for me but I didn't want a pity pack pull! I finally got an Arod! Still not a Willie, not a Yogi.image

    Not a single one. It's ok though cause I'm sure that Nomo card is going to pay my July rent.

    Did you attempt to put the chrome set together for 02? If so, how close did you get?

    edit: Mud - I'm about 40 shy on that set - just curious.
    also edit - wrong number

    I sold mostly all of my 02 and 01 chromes. I am in the middle of an 03 set. The chrome sets for 01 and
    02 were much harder to put together than the laters....it would be like putting together a refractor set
    now.

    Agreed Kevin - back in 02, my son was getting me a lot of stuff from friends who were getting them at flea markets and from other kids - I always seem to reach a point where I lose interest and then you don't see them anymore. This year I'm doing pretty well - I've got 65 different chromes and quite a few 555's to trade and chrome dups. But if I don't start asking around, I'll wind up like the other years.
