AIC TCG #1 & #2 - Suggestion Thread - '14 Finest!!!

[MisterT]

I suggest we do a nice big one at the end of August with A&G as well as Tier 1. Case of each.

I like doing both as well. Not sure where a case of each would price out. Maybe split the T1 case between TCG1 & TCG2 depending on price.

Andrew - can you let us know the price points?

I will take a look this weekend and give a few different options

my bad, got busy and forgot about this

heading out on the bay today but will be back late afternoon. Will work up a bunch of different breaks as I forgot Bowman Platinum comes out next week.

Tier 1, Ginter, BP could be a fun break

 

[King_Felix_4_CY]

How much do you think a half case of AG, Tier 1 and BP would be for each group? Sounds like a lot of fun to me!

 

[All In Cards]

T1, Ginter & BP = 6 boxes of each, that is 1/2 case of each = $135 a slot

That is a little rich for me to carry 3 spots. If we stick with this plan I will have to use a pass on of my slots.

We can drop it down or just do Ginter. I am open to anything you guys want

 

[MisterT]

Personally, I would drop BP from the mix. While I really do like BP, there does not look like a lot to be excited about, other than the Orange Puig redemptions and some autos from guys who already have autos.

Where would a T1/AG break price out?

 

[All In Cards]

Ginter/T1 1/2 of each = $95

Ginter 1/2 = $45
Ginter Full = $90

 

[King_Felix_4_CY]

The $95 break sounds swell, since we skipped last month, this is about average for our monthly breaks, even a bit cheap really. I vote for the 1/2 case AG/ Tier1 break for $95. To hell with BP, lol:evil:

Agree. Half and half sounds good to me.

 

[Ct Sox Fan]

I am going to have to pass in for this break. I am taking the family for a week to an All Inclusive in Mexico the first week of August. Also staring at a $12K tuition bill for my son's fall semester at UConn. Funds are tight right now in the house.

Plus I am not a fan of the high end products as a team collector. Too much risk vs. reward for a group break like this. I am much happier getting a set of base cards and few inserts than taking a chance at a big ticket auto. Add in I never really have been a fan of A&G, it seems like a good month for me to skip! Red Sox (or any other team not taken) are available in Group 2 for the August break.

Thanks.

Look a few posts up...

 

[jimmyjam1973]

platinum!

 

[TonyGillen]

Out of the three, Bowman Platinum is the only one I have interest.

I would probably be in on a AG/Bowman Platinum break. Definitely in for a Bowman Platinum break. I'm out if we do AG only or AG/Tier 1.

I understand your position. Clearly BP is a good product for the Twins and T1 offers limited chances for a solid hit. One of my teams, the Angels, is in exactly the opposite position. They have zero in BP and have a good shot at a nice card in T1.

This is a hard month to balance prospects with established stars.

Maybe a BP/AG break splits the difference. I think we will see a lot of people drop out if we go straight BP.

Thoughts from others?

 

[King_Felix_4_CY]

I think we should go majority rules. I for one vote for 1/2 case each A&G/T1 for $95.

 

[dp33]

I would rather see Tier One and/or Platinum myself.
