    That's ok, we had the most beloved player plus the most feared pitcher the league had to offer in the last 30 years. We don't need championships.

    Probably going to pull an auto of a guy you never heard of. It's what you usually get in those boxes. If you get anyone you've heard of you may want to sell it on draft night when they get drafted, that will be its peak value

    Looked up the price on Dave and Adams and I didn't realize they were that expensive. Hopefully you can find one for a more reasonable price.

    Topps was selling them at $300(lol bots got them all). My LCS on Friday told me they were at like $625. Starting to see some around $500. Hoping they keep dipping because I'll spend $4-450

    So the price of select blasters has come down substantially since release and because I'm a glutton for punishment I bought one. Don't think I could have done any better on the 3 die cut tricolors

    An metric fuck ton I'm sure. Someone in the Blowout Cards message board said more optic retail will probably hit the shelves again soon.

    My target had the sign up about the new rules. I'll probably go by after work and see if anything is left.

    Just bought a factory sealed 1993 Topps baseball card box. Noticed it was a “Series 2” box. Can someone tell me difference between series? Is series 1 better than series 2?

    Any insight would be great. Thanks!

    Not sure of the difference but found this:

    1993 Topps Baseball marked the first time since 1973 that the company's flagship set was split into two series. And at 825 cards, it's the line's largest set as well. 1993 Topps Series 1 Baseball has 396 cards. Series 2 has 429.

    Not sure about in the 90s but the modern series 2 will account for some roster changes and rookies not in series 1.

    Appreciate that. Just did some research and I don’t think the series 2 has the Jeter RC in it which sucks.
