Arrived in Ohio today (Tue.) in a shop in north Dayton. Craig in Ohio

BunchOBull · July 7, 2009 3:05AM

It appears No Number Minis are hand serialized out of /50 this year.

BunchOBull · July 7, 2009 3:12AM

No Ginter for me today

cwazzy · July 7, 2009 3:47AM

The local Vintage Stock just got them in today but didn't have them out yet. But as noted earlier I probably couldn't afford it anyway as they tend to overprice. A lot.

NICE!

<< It appears No Number Minis are hand serialized out of /50 this year. >>

I really hope this is the case.

Had that backwards...so production is down.

prscott933 · July 7, 2009 4:00AM

i'm liking that. they made way too much last year.

Ahzzy · July 7, 2009 4:10AM

<< Anyone get any tracking from BigT??? Hope to be ripping this week.

Dave >>

I just got a tracking # about 4 hours ago. I went to the UPS site to check it out and it's not recognizing the # yet. Unfortunately I live in Washington state so I don't think I'll receive mine until next Monday via free UPS ground

BunchOBull · July 7, 2009 4:18AM

<< i'm liking that. they made way too much last year. >>

Me too. These numbers suggest down by more than 1/3 of last years production.

Looks like the Osterman autos are redemption...too bad. At least that is the case for her reds.

Uphill · July 7, 2009 5:03AM

My local shop got some in today. $109 a box so I bought five packs. I'll be shopping online.

cwazzy · July 7, 2009 5:32AM

<< My local shop got some in today. $109 a box so I bought five packs. I'll be shopping online. >>

And why don't we see a live rip of those 5 packs yet?!?! Good luck!

magellan · July 7, 2009 5:33AM

I've got a bunch of '08 relics still Kevin.

Btw, the wood 1/1 I pulled last year was from retail not hobby so retail wasn't that bad.

BigT came through today & rippage is about to commence.

ssdawg77 · July 7, 2009 5:33AM

I have my case in hand and will begin ripping shortly. Wish me luck......

BunchOBull · July 7, 2009 5:36AM

LUCK! to both of you

If one of you fine gentlemen will scan the front and back of the folding checklist, I'd be mighty appreciative.

BunchOBull · July 7, 2009 5:58AM

I've created a codebreaking forum if we want to use it.

magellan · July 7, 2009 6:02AM

Here ya go Ross:

Are SP's 301-350 again?

Go to my photobucket link, should be able to read it better there.

ssdawg77 · July 7, 2009 6:02AM

Don't know if you can read it but here you go.

joestalin · July 7, 2009 6:02AM

Cat relic

ssdawg77 · July 7, 2009 6:02AM

Anyone know what the sp's are this year?

cwazzy · July 7, 2009 6:12AM

<< Cat relic >>

WTF is a cat relic?

matthewbschultz83 · July 7, 2009 6:14AM

hopefully it doesn't involve liter....

magellan · July 7, 2009 6:16AM

I'm about 1/2 thru 1st box-Fielder GU bat, 2 hoax minis, legends mini, Natl Heroes mini plus the regular, blacks & AG minis. 3 BB highlights cards which I really like, the whole set looks better to me than 2008. The National Pride cards come 1 to a pack.

cwazzy · July 7, 2009 6:16AM

<< hopefully it doesn't involve liter.... >>

If it does it would be the first card you could actually search boxes for by smell.

prscott933 · July 7, 2009 6:21AM

where's my case at!!!??? i don't even have a tracking number yet!!

cwazzy · July 7, 2009 6:24AM

<< where's my case at!!!??? i don't even have a tracking number yet!! >>

Let me know if you need help opening the case, Paul. I'm sure I could make some time to help.

fur72 · July 7, 2009 6:28AM

<< I've created a codebreaking forum if we want to use it. >>

Ross, Is it on here or elsewhere? If elsewhere PM me the info. Nothing to rip here yet

I will gladly help you sort the commons. I rather enjoy that part of it.

By the way, the Cardinals are on Fox on Saturday and ESPN on Sunday. I'm not sure I can handle two Cardinals games in one weekend. LOL

magellan · July 7, 2009 6:31AM

1st Box highlights:

cwazzy · July 7, 2009 6:33AM

Are the grey bordered cards the Ginter Code cards?

BunchOBull · July 7, 2009 6:37AM

Nice pull on the Osterman relic Kevin.

I'm working the kinks out on the code forum, I may make a new one as I don't like the security features on the one I've created. I'll have it worked out shortly.

BunchOBull · July 7, 2009 6:37AM

Thanks for the checklist scans guys. If I'm reading correctly, I don't see Frank Thomas in the base set? Is this true?

magellan · July 7, 2009 6:40AM

I believe so Chris.

cwazzy · July 7, 2009 6:44AM

Where'd Kevin go? Maybe he pulled a cut sig and passed out?

kmnorton · July 7, 2009 6:50AM

Can somebody help my aging eyes with the checklist? Does Cain have an auto?

magellan · July 7, 2009 7:08AM

I do not see Matt Cain Kurt. Ross, no Frank base card, he does have a Highlight sketch card.

magellan · July 7, 2009 7:15AM

2nd Box sample

BunchOBull · July 7, 2009 7:21AM

I'm getting old. My childhood sports hero isn't in modern sets anymore.

ssdawg77 · July 7, 2009 7:23AM

Couldn't just do one box at a time so here are the highlights of my case:

31 different black border minis, no dups

57 different A&G backs, no dups

119 different base minis, 21 dups

18 National Hereos, 4 dups

14 different Hoaxes, 4 dups, 2 trips, 1 card with 5

5 different Myths, 2 dups

That's it for the mini's

BunchOBull · July 7, 2009 7:28AM

The blackborders are really nice.

ssdawg77 · July 7, 2009 7:29AM

Here are the bigger hits:

I won't bog the thread down with all the relics, but if you would like to take a look, follow the link:

A&G Relics

BunchOBull · July 7, 2009 7:32AM

3 silks in 1 case? Wow. The Osterman auto will be a big seller...I hope to pull one myself. Seems like you did really well.

cwazzy · July 7, 2009 7:35AM

How much for the Ludwick silk?
