4 hobby boxes of 18 Topps update

splitrockgamer · 12-11-2018, 09:09 AM

Found these on the eBay 10% off, paid 155 for the 4. I was telling my wife it's not about the hits .. it's about getting the big rookies and maybe a cool parallel. I was right all base relics, but it was a fun break with a card I really wanted.

Relics
Wilson Ramos
Yadi
Lester
Posey manufacturer patch

Notables
Gold /2018 ohtani
Rainbow Acuna
Rainbow Acuna Albies
Rainbow 3 hr ohtani

12 other golds
6 SP all legends Ruth being the best
2 blacks Kluber and KC rookies I have never heard of
I got an Independence day of some pitcher I am not sure who it was but it was 17/76 so kinda cool

So some good stuff some fun parallels

Then I froze when my wife pulled this and said oh here is an Acuna he is one of the good rookies right?

Going to the PC, really love this and the series 2 sp.. might have to get his other SP so I have one of each..

Oof looking through old threads can be rough, graded BGS 10 and sold way to early.. 4 boxes of update for $155 though those were the days!

I don't I peaked through my PC the other night, figured I might have held onto it because of the cool numbering. pretty sure I sold it on COMC years ago.

Dont feel too bad. I inquired on pricing on a black update soto ($400 was the price) and the throwback ssp acuna ($500) when people pulled them.

I laughed and respectfully declined.

Me and my buddy opened 16 cases.. 6 hobby.. 10 Jumbo. Best pull was a Soto Gatorade Bath Autograph. We thought $1000 for one card was amazing! We even knew at the time that we should've put a couple of the cases in the closet. As we laughed and kept ripping. Fun times indeed.

Did you catch that he paid less than $40 per box? Current value of what he pulled? Over 10k easily.
