This is from same case as the RGIII black finite. No golds had been hit yet in first 9 boxes so chances were pretty good there would be at least one in the remaining three since golds average about 2 per case. I was shorted an auto in my last box so I close out my break the same way i opened...
Opened five boxes so far. First box I was shorted an auto but It has been getting better and better ever since.

In the past I player collecected Fernando and search his stuff out every now and then. I noticed his game used cards were selling pretty well over the last few months. So I put up the two I had for heck of it.
Shocked this sold for $125. Listed for less than a couple hours. It's rare but plain...

2010 Topps Pro Debut #88 Angelo Songco
2010 Topps Pro Debut #128 Donnie Joseph
2010 Topps Pro Debut #198 Brandon Jacobs
I have been waiting and hoping for a nice case to display the card below for what seems like a couple years now. I originally had it in a 25 count box to store but then I couldn't look at it. Then I cut a 8x10 magazine top loader down to size and was nice to look at but I always worried I'd drop...
I remember busting several packs of these when I first graduated from college. I could never afford a whole box in one sitting as they were expensive, especially for only 3 cards. I do remember the platinum blue stars from this product sold like hot cakes back when Ebay was just beginning and...
Stopped by shop today to get some Topps Chrome Football but saw they had premier. Weak as water I folded after I looked at one of the packs opened and thought this stuff looked awesome, so decided to take a risk and try my luck with one box. Guess I can buy the kids groceries next week...until...
