What A Case Break

If you aren’t familiar with YouTube user “allenmp” apparently they are a few guys in the Philippines that open numerous  amounts of high priced products. Earlier this year they opened over 50 cases of Upper Deck Exquisite Basketball 2008-2009. So it’s good to know that all those great cards that most of us are chasing are probably sitting over in the Philippines. Check out the video, it’s pretty good and by the way Upper Deck said they will replace the empty box.

A Few Hobby Packs

Mayo

It’s been awhile since I’ve visited the old card shop, so while out the other day I decided to stop by and see what was new. Not to much, most the shelfs were empty, due to a “good” weekend. Which I guess is good overall, since that means some people might still be buying stuff.  So with not much to choose from I decide on 2 packs of 09 Upper Deck Football and a few packs of the 09-10 Bowman ’48 Basketball.  In the football packs I pulled a Chris “Beanie” Wells UD Rookie Jersey card, I thought that wasn’t to bad, then I moved onto the ’48 Bowman and pulled a O.J. Mayo Auto card. In all I realized I might have to stop in that old shop alittle more often.

Game Used/Auto

Design * 

Price  *

Not to much to the design of this product, very basic and simple. Back of the base cards includes stats, team name and postion with not much more. The Retro cards are ok, but kinda of old after Fleer already doing that idea just last year. The Living Legends sub-set is a nice addition. A ok product if your looking for something cheap to open or to build a basketball set, like I said, you’ll get some inserts (17) but if your looking for value this isn’t the place.
