Picked up a couple boxes at lunch today. Opened 1 so far, here's what I got

fuj · September 11, 2009 10:47AM

LOL - nice! Are those inserts?

zep33 · September 11, 2009 10:50AM

<< LOL - nice! Are those inserts? >>

yeah, that reminds me, I got some players too

csmtampa · September 11, 2009 10:54AM

Would you trade that Josh Freeman?

zep33 · September 11, 2009 11:36AM

you can have it Mark. It's numbered to 649 though. not very low like most gold cards

Morgoth · September 11, 2009 11:41AM

Hey Zep I opened a box today as well. My auto was some RB from the Giants.

I am putting the Orange Refractor set together, I will buy all of them off you. Also I am putting the baseball Topps Chrome Gold Refractor set so if you have any of those I will buy those too.

I was disappointed that the football box didn't have two autos like baseball did.

daddymc · September 11, 2009 2:44PM

I grabbed two today as well. Will rip and post results tomorrow.

Basilone · September 11, 2009 2:46PM

Too bad they decided to use sticker autos in this set.

csmtampa · September 11, 2009 2:46PM

Awesome! PM sent!

Hit $500 on a lottery scratch ticket last night so went in search of more today

I stopped in one of the local shops today and he had Chrome football marked at $5.00 a pack. Not a chance I was gonna get anymore at that price. After looking around the store a bit more and shooting the breeze with him, I asked why the Chrome was so high. He said he wasn't sure why. I nicely told him that they have an msrp of $2.99. He looked surprised, made a phone call to another shop, verified it and then changed the price tag to 3 packs for $10 bucks. Never had a store owner actually do that before. Maybe it was cause I was polite about it instead of being a jerk. I then bought 5 boxes from him @ $69 a box and he thew in a bunch of free packs.

be ripping later this afternoon/evening

kmnorton · September 12, 2009 3:31AM

Of course you won $500, Mike. Wouldn't expect anything less.

ndleo · September 12, 2009 3:55AM

Sorry to get off-topic, but I'm thinking about buying a case of 2007 Bowman Chrome Football from Blowout. Anyone open this product? I've only opened retail blasters and didn't get much.

MeteoriteGuy · September 12, 2009 4:47AM

Thanks for sharing the scans Zep. Will have to break down and get a box.

daddymc · September 12, 2009 5:06AM

I finally got around to breaking my two boxes today. I posted highlights in this thread. Had a nice pull.

Two Box Break

Well get to ripping and let's find out!

zep33 · September 12, 2009 5:53AM

after dinner - in about an hour or so

zep33 · September 12, 2009 7:40AM

busted the 7 loose packs and the first box. The auto had a bunch of green cocaine on it and scratched it. Weird

zep33 · September 12, 2009 8:31AM

box 2, more angel dust on the auto

daddymc · September 12, 2009 8:33AM

Sanchez RC and Wells Auto RC, not a bad box!

zep33 · September 12, 2009 8:34AM

don't forget the 3 hot chicks

daddymc · September 12, 2009 8:41AM

<< don't forget the 3 hot chicks >>

I may actually have to put that set together.

zep33 · September 12, 2009 11:09AM

box 3 - gonna save the rest for gameday tomorrow

heritage · September 12, 2009 11:14AM

Mike nice cards and congrats on the lottery ticket.

daddymc · September 12, 2009 11:23AM

Looks like another decent box, especially if Shonn Green can get the starting job later this year over Thomas Jones. Only three cheerleaders though.

kmnorton · September 12, 2009 11:41AM

Nice boxes, guys!

Here's my auto from the box I picked up.

It's numbered to /10. That being said, he's recovering from an auto accident and won't be playing this year.

Nice to pull a gold refractor auto though!

I remember reading an article about him. Nice pull!!

zep33 · September 12, 2009 10:28PM

Box 4 - this was actually the 2nd box from the Friday. All the rookies were duplicated from box 3 of the other store. At least it was the Stafford box

zep33 · September 12, 2009 10:59PM

box 5 - 1st variation I've pulled - Brady

daddymc · September 12, 2009 11:12PM

Are the variations numbered or designated any other way?

Is that the chick from Track and field that they think is a dude?

justmichael · September 12, 2009 11:25PM

Damn Mike you are doing pretty well with this product.Greene could be real big this year.The Wells should be decent money and Nicks,well I have huge hopes for him.He was a highlight real in college.I hope it carries over to the NFL.
Mike

zep33 · September 13, 2009 12:46AM

<< Are the variations numbered or designated any other way? >>

no, there are 10 of them and they are just a different photo than the normal ones. Everything else is the same

26 Drew Brees
28 Adrian Peterson
56 Tony Romo
70 Tom Brady
74 Andre Johnson
96 Peyton Manning
145 Pat White
200 Michael Crabtree
220 Mark Sanchez

daddymc · September 13, 2009 1:21AM

Thanks for posting the variation list. Went through my stack again and didn't find any variations though.

Comicgeek68 · September 13, 2009 1:49AM

I busted 3 boxes yesterday that I picked up at a local card show for $55/box. I was thrilled on the first box cause I pulled 2 autos instead of the one. I didnt pull a Sanchez or Crabtree auto but I was still pleased with the pulls. I did happen to pull two red refractors out of three boxes. Not sure if you are supposed to get one per box or not. One was Josh Freeman and the other was TO. Wish I had my scanner around and I would post pics of my pulls. Looking forward to getting some more and seeing what I get.

I got one red refractor out of the two boxes I broke. You might do well with those refractors.
