I gave in this weekend and bought a box of 09-10 Fleer Ultra hockey cards. The box was fairly cheap as far as cards go, and my buddies were opening boxes so I figured I'd join the party. The packs were opening uneventfully until I got to the third from last. The pack contained the rarest inserts in the set. The 09-10 EX Jambalaya parallel, Martin Brodeur. EX Jambalaya cards are inserted roughly one per case(12 boxes, 24 packs per box). The card lists for roughly $80, which is much higher than the price of the box. I was very excited, it's fun to actually find something of value in a box of cards.
Keeping with the sports card theme, I'm participating in an on-line box break tomorrow night. The folks running the break are called
ATM Sports Cards. They are breaking 6 boxes of Upper Deck SP Authentic football cards. I will be getting any cards that are from the Dallas Cowboys, and another random team. Online box breaks are a lot of fun, you watch the host break open the box via web-cam and they mail the cards to you. The experience is more fun than I thought. Hopefully I'll have more good news to report after the break tomorrow.
Talk to you then!
