So things weren't looking good off the bat as this was a WBC box. Not one FY chrome to be had. Except for the parallels:

Nothing special but you never know....

Then, with four packs to go, I spotted orange. Was hoping to continue the FY parallel theme but that was quickly extinguished:

With two packs remaining, the auto was still to be had. This time, orange saved the day:

#'d 25/25. Perfect centering. Best draft pull I've ever had (save maybe for an Einertson Gold Ref which sold for $200).

I had a box just like that...and it actually happened in that order..

a bunch of crap... only one prospect refractor... and then a GIO GOLD...

but no orange Borchering.

the next box was the same thing, but a GIO Blue came out of it..

but no orange Borchering...

I was so angry I gave the Gio's to the Gio collector free of charge, rather than charging him ebay prices of 0.99 and 1.54, heh.

VERY NICE! :shock: I wanted to know if the Borchering is a bad scan as it doesn't seem to have perfect centering as stated in your post (top-to-bottom looks pretty bad actually...Is that just your scan?)? Even if it is off-centered it was a huge pull!

Congrats, Dave. :D

It's a terrible scan, actually. My scanner tends to crop in a very arbitrary fashion.
