Refractor - May
Gold - Yelich
Black - Mookie
Red - Pujols 5/5
and a Base Robert

CONGRATS on that Pujols jersey number Red!!! If I had the funds right now I'd be all over it, very reasonably priced, good luck with the sale sir!! You deserve a few monsters after the volume you've opened--thanks as well for the data, it has been a very interesting thing to follow--Matt

This stuff is still a decent ROI break at $500 per

I'm looking at quite a few eBay gold RC auctions and I find many cards are not centered, most, at best, 40/60ish...do I need stronger reading glasses???

Just cracked 3 more boxes...

first 2 were just ok only because I got 3 refractors in each. No big rookies

Box 3 made up for it even though I didn't get a Robert base card in that either...

Rage · 07-30-2020, 11:04 AM

So much fire in these boxes!

pacman099 · 07-30-2020, 11:37 AM

Received my 2 Blowout boxes yesterday. Holding these and showing off my Kyle Lewis RC Auto. Up for auction... might regret selling it too

Is there any general consensus on the print run of the refractors yet? Seems they are falling at about the same rate as gold refractors per box.

If printed equally, they're /50 as well, just not numbered, golds and refractors have the same odds.

Nothing big from latest 3 boxes but a few stars and auto. Still hunting for a red. May not happen. Should have hit two reds based on the odds but I have hit 3 autos.

Hollywood42 · 07-30-2020, 12:41 PM

Hit me up if the Cruz black is available

That is nuts for a product that's SRP was $55.

Depends on how many you rip... Over enough boxes you would probably come out around even at $500 per. You could easily rip 4-5 boxes and only get $200/box back.

Picked up 6 boxes from BO at the $399 price point. Figured it’s a shoe in for 50% ROI which is the upside on most products.

In the 2nd box...

Should I call it quits?

So the very best cards are all hiding in Blowout's boxes

What's the harm in opening one more?

If I pulled that card I think I'd call it quits permanently and retire from wax altogether, not even joking

Open 1 more and keep the other 3 sealed.

Yes! Quit while you're way way way ahead! It's definitely downhill from there.

athletics07 · 07-30-2020, 02:05 PM

Who am I kidding. Opened one more. Gold Newman and Refractor Rosario. Ouch.

Word of warning, avoid loose packs like the plague. Both the guaranteed hits in all three boxes were in the exact same box location. Of course, the bonus hits (Black Graterol and Trout Orange Auto) were random.

There must have been a mix up - I know I got someone else's boxes, and have been waiting to see who got mine. That card was supposed to be in my box, that's what they told me.

I'll give you my address so we can swap. Don't worry, I'll give you some extras, maybe some Prizm baseball? I hear those are all the rage these days.

I'll let you know tomorrow. Your boxes arrive tomorrow at my house...

Glowbug27 · 07-30-2020, 02:28 PM

Busted two more boxes last night. Four more to go.

Alvarez, Aquino and Bichette RCs no Robert, no Trout - along with a few base that allowed me to complete my first set (sense that some cards are SP compared to others)

Base refractors were AJ Puk and Kirby Yates. Did get the below as well.

Sold a Tales of Suspense #39 CGC 4.5 signature series - first appearance of Iron Man - so may buy more.
