I have been collecting Topps baseball cards since I was a kid. I created this site to share my favorite cards from my collection and all of the wax packs I bust. I will also be commenting on my thoughts about card collecting and baseball.
This blog is for collectors of Topps baseball cards
My opinion on the Beckett Video Box Break of Exquisite Football
If you have not seen it yet, you can go view the March 25th. video here. Obviously the Peterson and Payton/Piccolo autograph cards are amazing. But I don’t believe there is a conspiracy by UD to put once in a lifetime pulls in the box they gave to Beckett. I believe it is a coincidence, or more accurately how odds work. It is like the Allen & Ginter product last year, one guy pulled a Mother Teresa auto worth $10,000, and another guy pulled a Jeremy Hermida auto worth a buck. Another example is a few months ago a guy walked into my local card shop and bought a sealed box of football cards for $100 and opened it and every single card was a 1 of 1. It was just a fluke, a coincidence, he turned around and made a quck $10,000 for the box. I think as a community we should give Upper Deck and Beckett a break, and keep busting wax trying to get our own $10,000 hit.
Well, that is a refreshing outlook. I’m going to mull it over.
and exactly which product for 100 bucks can you open and possibly pull all 1 of 1’s? you had me till that part of the blog. upper decks crooked, beckett is crooked, 90 percent of the industry is crooked, but it doesnt sway my love for cards. i know i will never pull the monster set hit, those are reserved for people these card companies want to have that hit. i can still pull great stuff, though, and thats good enough for me.
This is great info to know.
If you truly believe this then you’re a moron.
