I am raking in a few dollars for doing some work, and after every FCB member I owe is paid off (I have everyone's money, I just need to be paid), I will buy blasters, packs, and hopefully a nice hobby box over the next week and a half. I should have 1 pack a day, unless I bust more.

Today, we start with the INFAMOUS product, OFFFFFFF.... OPENING DAY!

Aaron Hill Opening Day Parallel/2010 (these are REALLY COOL! Nice border with a silver stamp)
Manny Ramierez Opening Day ToppsTown (These also look nice)
2 Topps Attax codes... if anyone busted a pack and didn't get one, I have yours, PM me (lol)

And for the hell of typing...

1 pack of 2009 Platinum Football.
Sanchez RC (SCHWEET)

EDIT: I will NOT bust Opening Day EVERYDAY, I plan on switching it up, especially since I am out of town through Saturday... So tomorrow look for something different. The only reason I did today is because I wanted Platinum FB and I bought something for my dad to bust in the hospital waiting room but he was sleeping when I got there, so I opened it. I probably will either bust a couple packs of National Chicle tomorrow, or one of those 100-card packs. We will see...

EDIT #2: Too sick to go anywhere. No pack break unless someone brings me home one.

Last night: some retail 07 UD Future Stars... nothing worth listing.

Today:
1 206
1 National Chicle.

Will go through and post the cards later. All will be FS/FT unless marked so... Tomorrow... Blaster of 2010 Allen and Ginter (unless I find something better)

Hopefully you will have some nice pulls. I thought about picking up some of the UD Future Stars in the $1.59 box at Target but decided not to.

Our K-Mart has a deal... 2 blasters for $20. I decided to go with it.

The boxes arn't bad, because you get 1 RC per box (some of the inserts are dual rc, and some are a rookie review thing) out of/999. The base packs are crap. (blasters)

IF I get paid, it will be a blaster. I want something higher on the scale blaster wise. I need to post today's pack results...

If I had to choose any of the blasters right now it would be either A&G or Topps. Topps at least guarantees you a patch card which some are decent, and A&G you can get some pretty nice hits. I had fun with the blaster I bought a couple weeks back.

It will probably be A&G unless I hit the LCS up and buy packs or singles. If I buy singles it will be opening day again... it's nice to have a $1 pack to fall on to keep the "pack a day" thing going.

I doubt I will hit up the LCS though, as the town I buy all these packs from isn't the one I live in. I sneak out for a break from the hospital when I go so I head to Target to buy packs and look around a bit, but I would be at the LCS too long.

To be honest, I was sick yesterday and the packs were all ready open, but I wasn't supposed to take them quite yet, so I counted those.

Buy singles on eBay or a trade site OR buy hobby f/one of the sponser's on the site. D&A, Atlanta or even Blowout. If you're gonna spend $20, stay far, far, far, FAR away from '07 UD Future Stars retail. Nothing but junk.

Just my $0.02

I know it is junk. I won't ever buy it again. I almost sold the remaining packs after I had the 2 inserts.

Anyway...

206:
Casey McGehee Caramel Back (or are these the regular backs?) mini
Jay Bruce
Mike Cameron
Magglio Ordonez GOLD
Ryan Braun
Ervin Santana

National Chicle:
Michael Bourn (cool looking card
Lou Gehrig (this card looks cool)
Jim Palmer

Hunter Pence
Justin Verlander
Ian Desmond (also very nice)

I ripped 17 packs today... sorting to get everything that I want to post up.


A&G Minis:
Elk
Alan Francis BB
MM23 (too long of a name to type)
Adrian Beltre
Miguel Cabrera
Poseidan
Fransisco PiZarro
Anthony Gatto

A&G Base:
Heyward RC
Brees (this card is REALLY cool)
Max Poser
Tyler Brandt
Ron Teasley


Other:
2007 UD Ticket to Stardom Delmon Young (insert, not the Topps Product)
2009 Ticket to Stardom, Ticket to Stardom Joba Chamberlain
2009 Ticket to Stardom Joe Mauer (rigid edges)

Out of 17 packs, that's the most of it! I got burned hard but I got a lot of cards that I needed for TTM. Most of the stuff is FT.

Listen man, I understand that you were with your grandmother for a while and that may have delayed your payment, but it's really annoying me that you are buying a ton of packs every day yet somehow can't find a way to pay me and other members the money you owe.

Don't make deals if you aren't going to pay. And don't count on dealing with me again.

I have a deal with him for $5 paypal. I can't send because I haven't been paid.

This money isn't from paypal, and it is money that is given to me by my dad and grandparents to spend while my grandma is in the hospital to keep me occupied (she sleeps most of the day).

I can understand your frustration. I am actually not out of town today, so I can't buy any packs... If you accept cash as well, than I can do something for you. I know you are going to college so this might not work.

If you can pay tonight, fine, but if not just consider the deal off.

I will do my best. My dad is out of town tonight visiting my grandma, so if he brought his computer with him, I am sure I can send your money over
