Round 2: 10 box case of 2008 DOnruss Elite Extra Edition

[Bob Loblaw]

BLISTER packs. 15 packs per box, 10 boxes per case. Hobby packs, same odds as hobby, just cheaper. With more packaging. Here's my first break from last year. viewtopic.php?f=4&t=61523

These are a MAJOR PITA to open. I forgot how bad they were.

Box 1:

Neftali Feliz Auto /999
School Colors Brandon Crawford /1500

That's it? Oh...crap.

Box 2:

Greg Halman /429 AUTO
Brandon Crawford 3/50 Aspirations AUTO
Eric Berulac /594 AUTO
Collegiate Patches Roger Kieschnick AUTO /250
Greg Veldz /819 AUTO

School Colors James Barnell /1500; Aaron Shafer /1500
Josh Lindblom Status 24/75 no auto

College Ties Dennis Raben Mark Sobolewski /1500



Player selection sorta sucks, so far.

Sam Freeman & Ike Davis& Carlos Gutierrez School Colors /1500
Gordon Beckham Auto /710
Gustavo Pierre 32/50 AUTO
Denny Almonte /821 AUTO



and

COdy Adams Status 1/1 AUTO!
Hmmm...Who is Cody Adams? A Brewer... let's see his stats this year. Hmm... no stats. Maybe he's injured. Webstie shows that he's not on the team's active roster... lemme google his ass.

Milwaukee pitcher Cody Adams remains sidelined while he completes serving his 50-game amphetamine-related suspension handed down last July…

FRICK! FRICK!
DOUBLE FRICK!
Hmmm, ebay shows a red refractor auto 2008 Bowman Chrome went for 70... there may be some life in this 1/1.

Rough on the player selection, but nice 1/1! Feliz is a nice pull. Sounds like a fun break, gl with the rest!

Pretty interesting that there are "a bunch" of black status autos in these.....I pulled the Collier black status 1/1 out of these blister packs if you remember.

skrip

I'd like to get that Brandon Crawford and the Kiesch and the Cat Osterman from you. Let me know what you want for the 3!

 

[Bob Loblaw]

I thought I was way off, but I really wasn't, from the last case I opened, in terms of hits.

The last 10 box case had 25 autograph EEE cards (including 2 School Colors) and 6 GU/Autos (2 GU/Auto, 2 manufactured patches, 2 GU).

This case had 25 autograph EEE cards (including a 1/1, but no school colors) and 4 GU/autos (1 GU/auto, 1 GU, 2 manufactured patches).

29 vs. 31, obviously a difference, but not dramatic...

In sorting the base elite (god, this is boring) I found a hit of a no-one (i think) auto. So, while not thrilled that the auto's of no one, it's nice to see one more hit in the case.


At least some of the base cards are going for a few bucks.

I really should let my kid do this and let him win what the stuff sells for...
