This was exactly where they were for me too. Can't remember the position of JRod, but he was in the second pack; Kwan was the top card in the first pack.

Look at your #@#@#@#@#@#@#@ response to me again. You deserved it.

I’m glad you recognize how special I am though.

Khal and Brandon do this in every thread. They want to assert control and belittle anyone who disagrees. Just ignore them. They don't reflect on their attitudes when people call them out on it, they just double down. It's too bad because they otherwise have good knowledge about releases and the market.

Unfortunately I knew this and got sucked in anyway, that's on me.

Love that I’m somehow the bad guy after asking this…

Also, in SE MI and showing Saturday delivery. Ordered mine within 5 minutes of listing going live.

So we have Flip the boxes to buy some good Fast Food, Buy Steven Kwan's, Get insurance for your cards with a good insurance company or you "might" be a Moron.

Getting some good advice on here.

Question for those opening, are the cards ALOT better quality in centering (compared to TCU/TC)? it seems that right now the cards on Ebay are everyone's non centered cards I have been buying the cheaper rookies, but a lot of the ones posted are 60/40? Which is fine, I just want raw copies.

eastbayak · 01-20-2023, 02:13 PM

I almost forgot this was a TCU Sapphire thread...

Less useless text and more TCU Sapphire pics!!

thenightman · 01-20-2023, 02:14 PM

I think the JRod owner should totally reach out to a YT "influencer" and sell the card. Shoot, I bet SCI would trade his first born for it.

In all seriousness, I'd travel to a large show and try to sell it over putting it on a platform, auction house, or on social. Cash is king!

Tracking shows that my boxes are an hour away. Let's see if it somehow ends up at my doorstep by 8pm.

I am collecting the trout/ohtani us115 card and there is one on eBay that is like 90/10. I was like yikes. So I think it’s hit or miss. If anyone wants to move that card hit me up

Just checked that out. Awesome, awesome card. Might need to get one too - didn't see it in my two boxes.

Bunny Hop · 01-20-2023, 02:32 PM

Pulled a sweeeeeeeet 2022 mini red /5 of that baby.

Got my eye on the couple parallels up right now but need price to come down.

If I'm ever able to figure out how to post pictures on here I'll happily post it. It was by far my best pull from my boxes of minis and I love it.

bhundley · 01-20-2023, 02:57 PM

Just ripped my five boxes and I believe I am in the running for the worst parallels in a break to date. The bloody details:

Shorted one, so nine total

Purple
Matt Chapman

Gold
Ron Marinaccio
Josh Donaldson
Mychal Givens

Green
Luke Williams RC
Bryce Elder RC
Martin Perez
Luis Torrens
Angels Checklist (Ohtani 100 Career HRs)

Did ok with the base, but no JRods.

My loss is your gain!
