hold that diaz if i were u. he isnt too bad and with only zaun in from of him he should make the bigs soon. ur patches were decent but they dont sell for crap. again you can not rip and flip bdp unless u hit a major hit. wait till next july to sell ur autos and find out who is for real and who isnt. just my advise comign from a guy who invested in the crap called elements.

How do you figure that you will lose your shorts?

[go_steelers07]

with 5 cases worth of player lots and some nice colors, you'll be surprised at what kind of return you'll get. you didn't hit it big, but IMO you did better than you thought. hopefully you paid right around $2800 for them.

Yep, just shy of that.......2750ish. Not nearly the colors as the first 6 cases. I probably had 10-12 golds with 4 autos, and a couple orange autos, 2 red refractors. That first six was awesome.
I'm hoping you guys are right and I do ok.....that's just me being nervous.

Thanks for the advice.......I made the mistake of selling my first super. I'm not selling my second.

[go_steelers07]

don't be nervous...... just be smart on how & when you list these. you won't need to waste money on gallery pictures. definitely don't do BIN/BO. pick a nice 7 day stretch and let them go.

[CaptainBOHICA]

i was being sarcastic...... my breaks were so-so compared to yours. i just dont see why you think you did bad. you did better than a lot of us did.

[go_steelers07]

wes...... is this the first year you've opened BDP? a lot of people have the misconception that if you don't pull a moster hit then you did horrible on the break. but this is not the case at all with BDP. sure, it's nice (and much more fun) to get the big hit. but you don't need it with BDP to come out ahead.

[we6374]

I was going against my first 6 cases I broke. Trust me, the first 6 were huge compared to this.
I just started doing this with BDP. I did a couple of single cases of chrome before to learn. I read a lot of your posts and ask certain people for advice. This board is awesome because of you guys.
I've been getting back into cards for the last year and a half or so and was getting sick of single boxes with garbage in them. I would spend from 300-600 on a order and get crap. This is working out much better.

Questions;
Would it be a mistake to sell my chromes as a package for 500 off ebay? Someone is offering me 42 per set shipped. I told them 500 and I don't sort. I sold my base for 400. Is this a mistake?

If I list my chrome player lots do i just start them at 99cents and let them go for 7 days? I've been burned like that before......it never seems to work out. Or do I start the money players higher?

You will be able to make 10ct player lots of chrome from 5 cases.
If you list them you should be able to bring in $700-$800 assuming you have good feedback.

I think getting $400 for your base was a pretty good deal. Player lots probably should have brought in a little more than that, but not enough to warrant the extra work in my opinion.

Those were my thoughts exactly

If he's offering, you probably don't want to see it!

i think he means on the numbers on the inside of the boxes. these numbers are stamped on the outside as well.

It could be worse, you could have had my case break with no patch or base card and pathetic refractors and one blue refractor auto. I had an awful break overall.

13339, 16331 were the two # I had on my last break

16331 was a green case, but was alot better than the 13339.....
