So I got the last two packs in an open box and the last sealed box in the store. I was shorted an auto (like many people), but still I cannot complain. $125 for the box =

Very nice break! I'm really liking the stamp card, would look a bit better if it was straight, but still looks sweet.

I was really surprised at how many parallels #/999 I got. The sell sheets kept stating one per box, and I ended up with nine of them. The autographs look really nice in person, very clean image with a nice on card auto.

Whats the deal with these jewel cards? Are they case hits? Also is there any word about SP cards yet?

I think Topps' facebook says that they are 1 per case, but other than that, nobody really knows...

Yikes - I wouldn't touch this stuff... :?

Why's that?

I doubt that there's any ROI on this stuff - I understand this stuff is exciting for those who collect or assemble a complete set. Gypsy Queen isn't that appealing to me and perhaps to many people out there...

I could be wrong, but I wouldn't touch/buy any except Cal Ripkens...

Thats understandable. I dont think I will be buying any more of this either, but I also buy a box of Ginter each year and I dont like that either.

Already stopped, and already unloading this box. The Frank Robinson is gone, Ripken is about to be gone, a pending offer on the Votto, and I need to fighure out what to do with that jewel card.

I would just ebay it. They aren't worth an arm and a leg.
