IMO, there aren't many things that are more fun than a low-budget card break that is almost guaranteed to be paid for. Well done sir.

Love it OP, nice find!

I found 6 of the 2011 Topps Update boxes that are usually 9.98 and include maybe 75 cards in cello wrapping. Not packs, just one big fat pack in clear cello wrapping. Anyway, they were on sale for 4.98 and out of the six boxes I got 3 Trouts and a Hope Diamond of Curtis Granderson AS. Fun fun break for the price and loved hitting 3 Trouts, 2 of them gradeable if I go that route.

I also agree with you about the huge RC class from this set. Hosmer, Ackley, Trout, Frazier, Cozart, Goldschmidt, Nunez, Seager... Nice collection of RCs.

HOFcollector · 02-10-2013, 01:20 PM

thanks man! should mention it was a Sears GRAND, not just a sears hardware haha

if only the Daniel Moskos' and Charlie Furbushes were Trouts, id be retiring haha

onnly one trout, but was a fun break! heres the better stuff:
Alomar Cognac SP
Thomas Sparkle SP
Belt Cognac RC

HOFcollector · 02-10-2013, 01:22 PM

everything is FT/FS, pm me if interested

really fun break, the Trout looks really really good if anyone is interested in buying to grade

thanks for the look everyone!

lindeman79 · 02-10-2013, 02:03 PM

Lucky dog! I would have bought those in a heartbeat as well!

BBCollector99 · 02-10-2013, 07:31 PM

Love Retail 2011 Update. Need to find it discounted again somewhere

VWBUS1978 · 02-10-2013, 09:24 PM

Did you hit any veteran SP's (not diamond or paralleled)

They usually sell $5-$10 depending upon the player.

I don't think they bring that from this release.. The market got flooded with the value boxes and sps sold super low.

jvc · 02-10-2013, 09:40 PM

PM me a price on the Trout

jtcswim87 · 02-10-2013, 09:43 PM
