Default Post your awful box and case breaks here

It's fun seeing incredible pulls and all, but almost every thread contains an incredible pull, so I'd like to see the opposite for a change.

I think there's lots of awful boxes in 13/14 and 12/13

I always have bad luck in Crusade, just few days before I broke a 13/14 crusade, tried to get a low number rc prizm or rare oncard auto,

but finally got a Hollison Thompson Auto and a Kevin Love small jersey, all no numbering

and no any RC prizms, no numbering lower than 99.

Back to 1213, I only broke 2 boxes of Crusade, autos are

Lavoy Allen, Jon Leuer, DeAndre Liggins (box1)
Festus Ezeli, an retired 70's player, a 2nd rounder rc(sorry cant remember the name), all sticker

for relics,no patch, just regular jerseys, no bigname player

the best prizm is Andre Drummond red /99, I think that was a $110 box.

Wow, that's pretty bad, I broke some 13-14 boxes and got shorted a hit and got about $20-$30 worth of stuff back from $100 worth of boxes, but in 2 12-13 panini basketball boxes I hit a Jimmy Butler auto and 2 knights of the round, one of Irving and one of Anthony Davis , so I've had bad experiences with 13-14 and good with 12-13. Sorry the breaks didn't go well for you.

I opened a 12-13 NT case and got a Glen Rice Jr RPA /99, a Drexler sticker auto /49 and a Gary Payton trapped auto /49. And that was basically it for 'good' cards.

Bad break at the current price, would have been terrible if someone paid $1400 or more for it.

my first 2014-15 select box was real bad, the best card was a napier select die-cut auto, no tie dye, no gold. just a couple cheap jerseys and 1 auto.

A 3 box case of 12-13 NT is $2800. Wow, with all the cheap hits, no way would you ever get your money back.

my bad, I mean 13-14 NT obviously (last year, where Giannis and Oladipo are the only RPAs holding any value). But yeah, no case hits at all in that stuff and loaded with $5 cards.

The Glen Rice JR card should have given it away that you meant 13-14 NT, but that draft class has been so bad that I forget who's in it.

Bottom card from one of my 15 NT boxes was a Kobe All-Rookie Team Marcus Smart /99...pretty disappointing they consider that a box hit.

Against my better judgement, I caved and bought a $34.99 Excalibur blaster last night. The results were as expected-

The hit?

Tony Parker jersey

Also got Camo Crusades of Gary Harris, Shabazz Napier and Dante Exum, and a Blue Markieff Morris, who is one of my least favorite players, which kinda rubbed it in..lol.

At least the Crusades were all RCs, I guess.

I recently bought three boxes of Threads. Each box has two autos, two patches and two leather rookie cards.

In one of them, I've got an Andrew Nicholson auto /199, a Jordan Adams RPA /249, an Alonzo Mourning patch /199, a Dikembe Mutombo patch /199 and RCs of Jordan Adams and Devyn Marble.

And I follow that one up with: a Steve Blake auto /199, a Robert Parish patch /199, a Dwyane Wade patch /199, RCs of Bogan Bogdanovic and Cory Jefferson (What is with Panini and Cory Jefferson? It seems like he's in one of every two boxes. Incredible) and the big hit...a Stauskas RPA /249.

In two random boxes of the product, 150 points would have been better than anything that came in it. By far.

Ooh! Another one!

2013-14 Panini. Literally the only box of basketball at my LCS. Owner is a great guy, though, so I'll buy stuff from him just for the heck of it. Guaranteed two autos. Who did I get?

Reggie Bullock

and.....

Hmm...at least those boxes are like 40 bucks. It sucks, but is barely more than an Excalibur blaster. The one I opened a while ago had Ryan Kelly and Miles Plumlee autos.

$40 is what I paid, and I would rather have another one of those instead of the Excalibur blaster!

Ouch. Awful break, it's really hit or miss with those, but at least it's only $40.

I got slaughtered in a box of '12-13 select and '14-'15 select I got at a card show last weekend. 12-13 had a jimmer auto jersey, a redemption for a heinrich auto jersey and a dreymon green base auto. The 14-15 had a mark price auto and two no name base jerseys

The proper way to do this IS INCLUDE PICTURES.

Makes me want to buy a case, hope for crappy cards and post all the pictures. I just might be crazy enough to do this.

Today is my birthday. My wife asked me about 3 weeks ago what I wanted. I said I would love to break a box of 12-13 Absolute since I loved the product and it has been pretty good to me.

Not today.

Box 1- All RC autos(if you know anything at all about this product, you know this is a bad thing unless it is Davis...even Kyrie at this point doesn't pay for a box).
Mike Scott
Justin Harper
Malcolm Lee
Tristan THompson redemption

Box 2
Josh Harrellson Redemption
Orlando Johnson rc auto
Tyson CHandler Iconic auto relic
Stephen Curry Frequent Flyer plain blue relic /99

Hot garbage but the sentiment was right. I also think I am done with this product. The well has run fairly dry the last few times I have opened boxes.

Without the Draymond that would have been the worst break possible. Still awful though.
