2012 Topps Five Star Baseball 3 Box Case --- HIT DRAFT

pch_1427 · 10-13-2012, 10:50 PM

Hey guys. We got off to a great start with this break. But unfortunately I am going to have to cancel the break due to my crazy work schedule. My job applies me to travel I won't be around too much. I was hoping my schedule was going to work but it won't for the upcoming weeks.

For those who have paid I will fully refund you ASAP when I'm off work.

Sorry all and hope you understand.
------

This is a HIT DRAFT for a 3-box case of the new and upcoming 2012 Topps Five Star Baseball!!!

WE CAN TRY FOR MULTIPLE CASES IF THERE IS ENOUGH INTEREST!!!

3 boxes per case / 1 pack per box / 5 cards per pack (‘5’ total hits’ / All Auto’s or Relic’s)

15 total slots / hits to be drafted

A snake draft will be used to determine who gets the extra/remaining cards that were not drafted. Ex. The 15th overall pick will have the 16th overall pick. 14th pick will have the 17th pick and so on…

We will random first before break and draft after break.

After case is opened all hits will be scanned and uploaded for participants to see and ready to draft. See below for more information on the draft.

Case will be opened live on blogtv and recorded for viewers to see!

ZERO TOLERANCE for disrespecting or rudeness. Please exercise good communication with one another or action will be taken.

--- THE DRAFT ---

Mod will random the list of all 15 participants to determine draft slot positions.
Participant with first overall pick in the draft will pick first, then second participant, and so on until the last participant selects his hit.

Draft day and time will be posted after all information / cards have been posted on the OP. A PM will be sent to all the participants about the start time of the draft.

Each pick will have a 1-hr window to draft the card they want BUT I will allow for 15 minutes for notification to pass before the 1-hr window begins. If a pick is on the clock and does not select his hit between the 1-hr window frames, then I will automatically pick for him. I will have a pre-ranked list of the hits starting from the most valuable to the least. This will all be done on my estimated value of each card. Please send me a pm of the pre-ranked cards you want if you are unable to draft or do not want to risk me auto-picking your cards for you from the pre-ranked list! I will not be at fault for choosing a card for you if you do not select within your 1-hr time frame. Your draft window starts when the person with the previous makes his selection, not when you are pm-ed. Towards the evening, if a pick has not been made yet before draft day closes, there will be a carry-over to the next day and the time will start off where it left off the night before. Please clearly list the card or base/inserts that you want to draft.

THE BEST WAY TO KEEP UPDATED WITH THE DRAFT OR THIS THREAD IS TO SUBSCRIBE TO IT AT THE TOP OF THE PAGE. Otherwise, I am not responsible for you missing your pick and me selecting your hit.

--- S/H & SHIPPING INSURANCE ---

I will ship to addresses provided by you through your papal payment. Otherwise, please let me know ASAP if you have another address you want your cards sent to.

Shipping insurance is optional, but recommended for those who have high draft picks or cards deemed to have high value. The price of shipping insurance is depended on how much you want insured. I’ll make calculations through USPS.com and let you know how much it will be. Please let me know if you want insurance included within your S/H.

--- PRICE BREAKDOWN ---

(1) 3-Box case of 2012 Topps Five Star Baseball
Sub Total = $1,394.95

+ UPS 3 Day Select = $21.61

Grand Total for case + UPS 2nd Day Air = $1,416.56

Gotcha. Thanks

VinnyH · 10-18-2012, 05:55 PM

is this a typo or leftover from another break that you cut & pasted?

Mod will random the list of all 56 participants to determine draft slot positions.

I'm tempted to be in the mix of 15 slots and 15 picks in whatever order the mods and random.org end up with. That would be a decent gamble.
Thanks,
VinnyH
With so many other odd variations on breaks I had to ask

Yes it is a typo. Should be 15 slots

VinnyH · 10-18-2012, 09:33 PM

I'm tempted but have to count my pennies. I'll hope a slot is still open in the next couple of days. Sounds like a nice gamble and the random draft adds a nice touch.
Best to All,
VinnyH
