12 boxes.....10 boxes from 1 case, 2 from another.

Nothing worth mentioning in the 2 spares.

From the 10 in one case, wound up a little disappointing. Got the hot box, which was nice (and a bunch of the rookies from that). 2 standard rip cards/99 (Rickey Henderson and Tom Seaver); ripped both and got Acuna SSP and Bichette SSP, respectively. Got 7 autos, I think....all baseball and nobody too great. Best was a Hoskins/25. Got only 1 numbered mini: a Michelle Akers Brooklyn Back/25. Trevor Lawrence mini and Ginter mini (and hot box foil). None of the rare Ginter draws I was hoping for...no silks, no plates, no boxtopper goods and none of the really rare stuff. Relics were all standard yawn.

EDIT: Perhaps that Michelle Akers is a much bigger pull than I'd thought. Just realized who she was, lol.

Hope my case is waiting for me at home when I get there! All these posts got me excited to open!

I’m pretty sure it was never released. I haven’t seen one hit the secondary market and I’ve seen at least one of all the other booklets.

Having gotten back into the hobby during the pandemic, this was one the most fun to rip so far. Really like the Negandhi relic with (what I assume is) his tie pattern. Also pulled a Rocky Breier /25 auto. Probably grab another box over the weekend.

calculusdork · 08-11-2021, 03:26 PM

Something tells me this person is going to end up sorely disappointed .....

Here is perhaps the best single card in the entire 2021 Topps Allen & Ginter.

Don't get me wrong ... it's great. But Taft has a ton of cut signatures, including stuff like this.

Before your edit I was about to reach out about the Akers lol. I'd say it's a mid-range hit. Interested, PM me if you're looking to move it. -Michael

He should make a website for it.

If anyone is looking to offload their mini inserts in bulk (Hats, Good For you, Largest, etc.) Please let me know. I PC all of the insert sets each year. Bummed that there isn't a case hit mini insert again...

I'll be trying to put together a master set (except for base minis) so I'll be looking for lots to trade/buy as well.

Cool Negandhi from a ginter box today

What do you guys think is a fair price for bulk minis from 21 boxes? My LCS owner is out of town, but his shop opened that much, and I'm trying to work out a deal but I think he's scared of getting screwed over by not being able to see what's there with his own eyes, lol. Best cards in the mix are probably Trout A&G back, Trevor Lawrence A&G back, and Andrew Vaughn black RC.

Feedback appreciated. We are usually able to work out deals pretty easily, so maybe I'm legit low balling him.

JeremyNick · 08-11-2021, 05:52 PM

Mike Lange Wood Mini on Ebay. Solid price too.

So opened my one box I got in the mail. Looks like things are a little whack this year. Three relics, one a Pujols bat and 2 rip cards. Soto 1/50 and Jeter 6/99. Don’t know what to do with them

Don’t rip them. That’s for sure

Nice box!!! Don't ask questions, just be thankful

If you're asking about the rips ... probabilistically, do not rip.

I just had a box with 2 rip cards as well and also had a case with 3 boxloader rips. That said I have had a ton of really bad dud boxes and a couple not so good cases. This is running extremely hot and cold. I think the packout is very wonky this year. Only hit 2 numbered minis in 6 cases, 1 of them being a wood mini (AJ Puk). The NNO minis are less than 1 per case from what I have seen so far.

Collation across the board is definitely off. My one box was full of base duplicates ... never had that happen before.

Agreed. Out of 2 cases opened, I got 2 NNO Minis in each, and one of the cases had a cloth and a 1/1 original. Autos however, were not good, and no numbered mins, plus one of my cases only had 1 rip card.

As usual, collation sucks, and has since mid last year.

Porktornado · 08-11-2021, 06:45 PM

Has anyone opened any Ginter blasters? I grabbed one because I have to grab one of every baseball blaster or my hand will fall off. The card count on each pack was 6, 6, 6, 6, 7, 7, 8, and last, but not least, 2. I had minis falling off the front of packs, and that juicy fatty I saved for last was just 8 base cards. So I got exactly as many cards as I should, but got there creatively. It looked like someone had their kid pack them by hand. Anyone else having this adventure? It makes me think there is a pack of 8 framed autos out there duct taped inside a bursting wrapper.

TheFreeShipper · 08-11-2021, 06:48 PM

This time of year is rough…always think about opening past unopened rip cards.

I know you’re right but it’s so tempting.
