Me too. Here are all the tins together. green/silver/gold and the set of 12 sealed retail double tins. Minus the three mini Golds I need... hopefully i can find them soon. I know there is one in the Gold Box I just got. The Chances of me actually pulling one I need are 1 and 8 as all the Gold boxes had one gold tin in it. As tempting as it is I am going to leave it sealed. Too hard to find these sealed gold ones anymore.

Another bites the dust.
Thanks to Tidel144 (Rodney) for the tip
And it is sealed to boot.

4 more to go. I also picked up another sealed box which I opened to get the green sealed tins out. So i now have 19 sealed Green Tins
10 Sealed Silver and 10 Sealed Gold minis. May have to keep working seeing how many sealed i can get

Glad to help, Rob! Will continue to keep an eye out for your remaining - hopefully you complete this year.

Well, been about 10 days... I am really starting to consider cracking my Gold Sealed box to see if can pull one of the last two mini gold tins I need? Odds are 1:12 that I get either the F Thomas or Paul Molitor. With that being said and knowing my luck. NEHHH so Ill just bump this up. :D

Well, I think I may do it. I may have to crack my Gold Box to see if I can get 1 of the 2 Gold Tins I need. I have two sealed boxes right now a Green and a Gold. I will leave the green box sealed as it will only have 1 Silver sealed tin but that Gold Box... HUH here are my odds of getting anything I can use

Gold Tin of either Molitor or Thomas 1:12
Sealed Gold Tin that I don't already have 1:1.72

so a little better than 50/50 that I can use what is hidden inside with a 1:12 chance that it is one I REALLY need.

Interestingly, I did have a second sealed green box that I opened to see if I could get a sealed Silver Tin I needed with the same odds as my Gold quest and doubled up on a Clemens Sealed Tin. Also, I am not opening any of the inside tins as I don't need any cards in there. Decision Decisions. Maybe someone can help me today and so I don't have to open it?? :-)

Well... said screw it and opened the Gold Box... bad news is I got a tin I already have that is sealed. The good news is if I was going to get a duplicate getting a Maddux Duplicate is OK by me. Also the Gold Maddux I had was /999 which is a common misprint with the Mini gold tins. The one I pulled is /199 which means now I have one of each. I have a few other duplicate tins like this so in reality I did get one I can use. :-) I also landed four more of the green sealed tins I needed. So now I just need one of those. I am surprised in 2 boxes I just opened I didnt get one Travis Lee sealed green tin. Oh well. It was a thrill to open and see what it was.
