another break ahead this week

[sliqwill]

I was on dacw again and saw they are running another special on Olympic single boxes...the day after I ordered my last 2 cases they raised the price on cases...

they currently have single boxes at $20.95, and 12 box cases at $299.95...so I go to order 40 boxes...they have a limit of 10...so I ordered those and some hobby of 2012 Panini Americana since they are on special as well, and I haven't opened hobby yet, and I think that is where all the autographs and soccer relics reside, because in 90 blasters one would think id have hit the odds to get an auto or a soccer relic...never got a base proof either, but got several relic proofs...

anyway, they should be here Wednesday, and I emailed blowout to see if they would price match because id kill some gift cards on that stuff...

guess ill need to drive to the shop this week to pick up some more monster boxes...wish there was a closer shop...

Americana could be better, but Olympic has been pretty good, especially considering the price, as the only things id expect out of a case still are 1 Gold Auto 2 Silver Autos, 2-3 Champions Autos, 1 Silver Relic, 1 Gold Relic, and 1 Rings Patch, so getting 4 tough relics when a case averages 5 its not bad, and the only real bad auto i got was Heather Richardson and i can get $7.49 out of it...scans will go in my "Awesome April" thread...at least the cool stuff

no silver autos, no gold hits...not bad for the price, but still would have been nice to get a hit that goes for $40+

still no Jamie Anderson base relic pulls...next up, full case from blowout, instead of 10 loose boxes, and yes, i was shorted an auto
