Wow congrats J&N on the gold parallel! What a pack pull. Congrats to everyone who got an Ohtani, Acuna Jr, and/or Soto. Please do more Shohei Sundays, I love this segment.
I remember not too long ago finding fat packs and hanger boxes of 2018 Update in the Clearance bin at Walmart…$4 for a fat pack and $7 for the hangers…I bought every one I could find, only wish I would have saved them instead of selling them.
Back in 2019 I found a jumbo pack on clearance at Walmart. Wasn’t going to buy it but I touched it to see what was behind it and instantly saw the Shohei rookie on top. Unintentional pack searching haha. Of course I bought it
That’s the way to speak a card into existence…wish it was always that easy, mention a certain card, and BOOM, there it is in the pack you’re ripping! Great pull and congrats to the new owner!
My 2018 Update Ohtani Independence Day /76 sold for $765 on April 15th. But it wasn’t a 10. Somewhere between an 8-9 is what it would have graded out at. At the time of listing a week before the 8’s and 9’s we’re up to $1200 and the raw sold for 645 and 725ish so I decided not to mess with grading and auction it off. I keep looking for it but I don’t think all the Independence Day ones have been found yet
Wow that was a great hobby box I have three RC cards or Ronald Acuña Jr. out of a blaster box and I have two Shohei Ohtani RC cards one from a blaster box and the other I bought it at a flea market
My jaw dropped; that was unexpected and awesome! I bought one hobby box of '18 Update back in 2019 and pulled an Acuna Jr rainbow foil. Rest of the box was a bust, as 24 pack hobbies can be rough.
Wow! This will almost pay for the box price! Good to know you only need to hit the absolute best card reasonably imaginable to make breaking this anywhere close to worth it.
Hey Jabs, I caught one more insert at the end of the last jumbo pack... I think it was a Topps Black with some RedSox players. Thank you for what you do for the card collecting community.
Oh wow nice pull. The team bag keeps the dust from getting inside the one-touch. After a while you can feel the surface of the card it’ll feel like a car that hasn’t been waxed and then if you take a microfiber and wipe it off it’ll feel slick again. My PC I have fitted top sleeves from superior fit innovation’s that are absolutely amazing and keep the dust out. Check out those sleeves if you’ve never seen a fitted top loader sleeve before. $2.50 for 50 of them.
I couldn't imagine how many people would be buying into the Saturday night card wars. Congrats to the person who gets it. But it been cool to aa well to see it in box wars.
