That's just my old 10 year old phone. Those packs are all shiny new no Greenie no yellowing no nothing

I haven't broken boxes in a while due to the COVID19 situation and concern for my family both here and in my extended family elsewhere. Was able to get them to hit the storage unit so I'll break a few boxes in the next few weeks. Hope folks enjoy. Just one priority box came. But 1 is always enough to tide my urges over for a little bit.

I've broken boxes of this before seems more is popping up in storage which works for me !!
2003 PLAYOFF PIECE OF THE GAME was one of my favorites. Price point for packs was OK ( $25 a pack back when)
I used to break a pack hoping to hit a player I wanted to keep and praying it wasn't someone I didn't.
Your typical "gambling" box break in other words

Anyways these come 6 sealed packets to a box plus one extra silver pack per box.
More info on them can be found at baseballcardpedia.com/index.php/2003_Playoff_Piece_Of_The_Game


Box picks then the silver pack is shown. Unopened so far just cracked the box open to take the last 2 picks
Will crack the individual packs tomorrow when I have more time I am doing eBay stuff right now and need to focus elsewhere. Looking forward to it !! Will post and scan results as always and looking forward to the other boxes that showed !!
