2009 Topps Tribute Box Break

[itsjustcardboard]

I bought this box a while ago, and like most of my boxes I threw it into the back of my closet. I saw it lodged in the way back and had to make the tough decision of whether to open it or sell it for profit. I figured that I always open it and don’t care much about a profit so here I am reporting to the sports collecting world how I did. This box is an interesting box as I believe it killed the high stature of Topps Sterling. For the same price, you get 6 hits instead of 2, and the players in this set are just as good as the players in Topps Sterling. Albert Pujols, Ryan Howard are mixed with Micky Mantle and Mike Schmidt which make this set very appealing to all collectors. Here is how I did:

Blue:
Sal Bardo 88/219
Ray Knight 87/219
Reggie Jackson 31/219
Aramis Ramirez 62/219
Ryne Sandberg 166/219
Lance Berkman 70/219

Hits:
Evan Longoria Dual Jersey Autograph 78/99
Keith Hernandez Bat Autograph 65/99
Mike Schmidt Bat Blue 28/75
Clayton Kershaw Jersey Autograph Blue 65/75
Evan Longoria Bat Autograph Black 40/50
Evan Longoria Bat Autograph Gold 8/25

Nice! Good stuff man~!

pm me if you want to sell the Schmidt and the longoria /99

You probably couldn't have sold the box for much profit at all.

Man, that Kershaw is just a gorgeous card..what would it take to get it away from you?

being Kershaw and Longoria are two of my favorite players, I am very jealous of that break. Well done
