2006 Bowman Draft Box Break...Huge hit

[ktothep]

Hey everybody. I was at my favorite card shop, Garden of Earthly Delights in Philly yesterday, and I was debating what box to open. I asked Chuck, the owner and really nice guy, what was the best price he could do on a box. I've been eyeing the boxes for a while and the two boxes he had left had been in the store since the product released in November of 2006. I decided to take a shot on one of them. I saw red in pack 22 or so and boom!

Longoria red refractor 5/5!!!

I couldn't believe it. After my obscenities subsided, I was still shaking putting the card in the one touch. My best pull ever. Does anyone know how much the last one sold for?

Any advice is greatly appreciated. I don't know if it will gem, but I definitely think it would be a 9 at least. Thanks guys. I just wanted to share this incredible pull with you all.

Damn, nice pull! Golds have recently gone for $780 (BGS 9) and $1031 (BGS 9.5), so you're looking at some serious $$$$$

 

[james5348]

i just checked and a gold graded a bgs 9 got 781. can't imagine what that brings in for you

Thanks guys. I'm still amazed that I had such luck to pull that card.

Beauty!
Probably $2K right there. Even more if you send it to BGS. It looks gorgeous.
Congrats.

Ask brouthercard. He owned/sold his

Congrats Man!!!

all i ever get out of those boxes are those "other" autos.

December 2008 - $2158

August 2009 - BGS 9 sold for 3850 (I think he was really hot at this time right?)

Hope those help. I would assume your card is worth around $2500, depending on the condition and if there's a buyer right now.

On a side note, that's a pretty gay name for a card shop. :?

Congrats on the Monster pull!

BTW, where in Philly is the shop?

Never heard of it, in fact, I didn't think there was ANY LCS left in the city limits...

 

[Russ S.]

Thanks russ. If you haven't been somewhere, you shouldn't talk shat.

Sorry if you fell that a person can't express THEIR opinion on a public forum.

Nothing against the city of brotherly love, or your favorite joint, but do you honestly think that is a kick ass name for a CARD SHOP??
