2010 Bowman Blasters?

[Exposfan]

Talked to the guy at Target this Am while he was filling up the cards, mainly YuGi Oh- He echoed the sentiments already, 2010 Bowman shipped last week should be showing up daily.He didnt have any at that store, but he knew who Straburg was!

I don't even know if Walmart in my area sells cards anymore, not sure its worth a trip.

I ran to a couple targets near my house in MN as well and they are out. I picked up 3 blasters as well as a few packs. I plan on selling them on ebay although it is tempting with them just sitting here. I did happen to get a Tony Sanchez Auto in one of the packs though.

So there are no chrome autos in the retail product?

Some on another site said they pulled a Anthony Gose Chrome STICKER auto from a rack-pack. No pic, so I have no clue if they are telling the truth.

There are "paper" autos in retail. No CHROME autos.

The paper auto checklist is bruuuuutal.

But Anthony Gose isn't on the retail checklist.

I have 7/10 of the BDPP retail autos. Amazingly, from all the packs I bought I only got one double auto (Moustakas). One of the Moustakas was in a rack pack that also had a Drew Storen xfractor auto so that was a nice bonus.

I'd complete the set but I didn't get Posey and those have been selling for $30+[/quote:k6oenj46]

So the rack packs have chrome autos?

edit : NVMD - you're talking about 2009.........

There are two Walmarts here, one does sell cards and the other doesn't. Maybe give them a quick call to save yourself the trip if they don't?

No, I was talking 2010. I just mentioned that I know retail has sticker autos.

I read that someone got an Anthony Gose Sticker Chrome auto out of a retail pack. Not from the most reputable source, but it is what it is.

And back to 2009, Chromw and Draft had chrome autos, I don't think bowman did. Hopefully it will be the same this year.

If I had to guess, I'm sure there will be Chrome autos but with longer odds than sticker autos which should run one per retail (24 ct) box.

At the Target in O'fallon, MO, there were 4 2010 Bowman rack packs but no blasters. I'm assuming someone already came by and snagged them. I couldn't resist myself and opened all 4. I got a dinged Strasburg base and a Tony Sanchez bowman base auto (sticker).

Not to bad considering but would of loved to get a Strasburg parallel.

Nothing to report from Madison, WI this morning. I'm going to check after work anyway, just to see what's up. I havea feeeling my Shopko will be the best bet.

Yeah I agree. I also got a Sanchez auto out of just a Retail pack. I picked up 4 packs for myself as well as 3 Blasters. I would rather just sell the Boxes and use that money for a chrome auto of somebody worthwhile rather than just open them up. Especially seeing how the last one sold for $40.

 

[All The Hype]

I picked up 2 blasters at Target for the standard $19.99 each. The guy was just stocking them. He also had a retail box of the 24 $2.99 packs that I almost bought too but decided to hold off.

Haven't decided if busting or selling yet. Busting would be fun but if they're pulling $40-$50 it's tough to turn down an instant profit like that.

 

[kidman232]

went by my local target today, nothing in sight

 

[matchpenalty]

Nada at both Target and Skuzmart. Either picked clean earlier today by the local scalper or not shown up. Even Chicle blasters were all gone. Still lots of Heritage rotting on the shelf along with Press Pass football and Nascar crap.

The ShopKo in Belvidere used to have a great selection of cards. Now it's crap. Bunch of overpriced hobby boxes from 2006.

I went to toy r us today. They had bowman it just happened to be 2009 ::facepalm:: :lol:

 

[17ROCKIES12]

Nothing at Target today.

 

[All The Hype]

Decided to bust the two I picked up. There are exceptions, but they just aren't going for enough online to warrant selling them.


One purple per box, as advertised. Also beat the odds to pull a ref and a blue ref (one in each box). Happy with the players too. Not happy with the weird line on the top of the Grant Green. Topps apparently has very little quality control with the poor centering I keep hearing about (and have no seen) and all these roller marks...this is the first time I've seen a thick dark line across a card though. I mean, what the hell Topps?

I was also happy to pull one of these even though there's a clear horizontal roller mark and it's not centered very well.

Anyone else have any luck finding some retail today?

Talked to a few employees today at KMart and Wal Mart. The area should be stocked up by tomorrow at noon.

Ok so I need some opinions people. I picked up 3 Blasters today with the intent of putting them up for 1 day tonight to make a small profit, but its killing me to have them just sitting here. I noticed someone said that they're just not going for enough on ebay. So what should I do? Sell them as I intended? Rip 1 and see how it goes? Rip them all? Or sit on them until Strasburg debut's. Just looking for some input
