Case Break Proposal

I would love to do another box break. I found on Blowout Cards and DAcardworld a case of 2006 Fleer Greats of the Game with 12 boxes per case and 2 autos + 2 relics per box. That's 48 per case, a good amount of some old-time greats. Here is a link to the product information on Blowout Cards. The checklist is a PDF link at the bottom. Check out those Auto Mermorabilia cards! What a great checklist!

It won't be teams for the inserts, but could be for the base cards, depending on what everyone wants. The reason for doing it as a break where the inserts are handed out to everyone in a random order is that the the Greats of the Game are from only seven teams: Yankees, Cubs, Cardinals, Tigers, Red Sox, Dodgers and Reds. There are other inserts, such as the Nicknames and Decade Greats, but it would be unfair for anyone who chose one of those teams.

It's only $619 on Blowout Cards. So for 32 people at $21 per person, that would be $672, which would cover the case and most of the shipping to each person, which averages $1.50 to $2.00 per person from here.

Post a comment if you are interested in joining this case break. The last one went really well, and I think this would be a great product for all us vintage-heads. Let's try to get this together by this weekend so that we can do this sooner rather than later.

Sounds good to me... I'm in if I can you cash or a check. I don't do paypal anymore...

I'd prefer paypal, but for special circumstances and friends, such as The Troll, I'd be OK with a check.

I think I might do it. I just was in a Fleer Greats of the Game break over at Thorzul Will Rule, so I'm a little concerned about doubles. But I'm really only interested in the Dodgers.

i would be interested too, but why not do 24 peoples so that would be 2 hits per person. otherwise, with 32, some people would get only one.
or am i missing something?

Dan said...

No, it would be 1 or 2 per person. You may be right, 24 might be better. So that would be upwards of $28-29 per person.
