I'm going to not be an idiot like I as with Kuechly and I'm going to pick up as many of his autos early as I can, he's going to be a STAR (of course pun totally intended) in this league for a long long time.

Just picked up a cheap but pretty nice Stewart card through the forums, had never thought about it as I'd never seen one on ebay before but it makes perfect sense to own considering I have it's brother, and I have only seen one of those on ebay too, so I bought it, hahaha Some random fairly new member messaged me about it tonight, pretty nice surprise You guys will like this pairing for sure

Thanks, and while I do love my collection, I have one MAJOR regret. I should have been buying up every Kuechly auto that I could find until about week 10ish, which is one of the reasons I'm so jealous of that set you've got here I was very confident that he would become what he's already becoming, even made a bet for ROY at my fantasy draft and gave my buddy the field with no odds. He was selling REALLY cheap up until it looked like he was going to have a real shot at the tackles title and his cards really went up in price. I only have 3 autos of his as it is, and one of them a guy gave to me for free with a Stewart auto I bought from him (which I still don't get as I paid him $20 for it and the Kuechly was a Bowman Auto 3-Color Patch /99 that sold for $25 at the time, hahaha)

So I've absolutely killed it on 2011 Crown Royale, the problem is that the majority of boxes aren't all that great in the value you get from them, still a fun break because the product was awesome last year. But in the majority of cases there's generally like only 2 decent to good boxes and 1 good to great box, which is what makes my ridiculous run with the product in buying 1 or 2 at a time over a few months all that more ridiculous. You can see the recap for the most part and pictures of the best hits here: http://www.blowoutca...oose-boxes.html But here is the basic breakdown of the boxes Then I've done my first and so far only two boxes of 2011 Plates & Patches in the last 2 weeks and I've done amazing again, pulled a cut auto /5 in my first box (only good card from the box though), but the second was amazing, the plate in the post above, an almost perfect Patrick Peterson auto (like 95% of his autos run off the sticker a few times), Castanzo auto /25 and a base /10 of someone. But again, this is another product that really for the most part doesn't provide much value, the majority of boxes are complete duds, I've just beaten the odds big time. Besides that, haven't really had much luck in anything as of late. Like I said, I only tell you guys about my big hits, but I bust a lot of boxes (way more than my budget should allow) and normally lose about 80% or more of what I spent on them. When I texted my buddy about the Limited and P&P box, his response was actually, "awesome, you were due some good boxes" because I just have so many duds. So unless you have a crazy itch to bust something, just stick to buying singles, or pick up like one and only one blaster from Target/Walmart. It's a slippery slope, the excitement of opening boxes waiting to see what you'll hit is strangely addictive, I totally understand how people have gambling addictions now. But if you really want to bust something, let me know what your budget is, and what you'd like to pull as in if you just want a fun break, hunting for a monster, rookie autos, vet autos, etc. and I can give you a few good options But stay far away from 2012 Limited, even after I bought it I was walking away saying how much of a mistake it was to get one of those, not sure why I did as I swore I wouldn't do any of them this year as the product has been HORRIBLE for those breaking it. You're more likely to get a crap rookie auto and two boring jersey cards than getting a good hit, let alone two autos and all 3 hits were great like in my box

Wasn't home when I posted that, meant to come back on and post it but forgot (look what day that post was made on, hahahaha) First thought was that I had to sell it, but then after pulling a Wilson auto redemption, a Turner auto patch /10, and Martin sick jumbo 4 color patch in my 2012 Limited box, I'm thinking I'll just sell all those and keep this Rice 1/1

holy crap that's an awesome set you've got there

I've been refreshing my "chris carter" ebay search on my phone WAY more often that I normally do with stewart, like once every 15 minutes if I can, lol I only post about my really big pulls on here, trust me I lose WAY more often than I get a good pull. hoping to break that streak though as I still have two more boxes to open probably later tonight (a 2012 Limited and a 2013 Gypsy Queen)

Pulled another 1/1 earlier today, Ray Rice P&P printing plate 3-Color patch

And this is what I was talking about in my previous post I pulled the cyan plate this past weekend (my second 1/1 that I've pulled myself) and looked on ebay and saw the yellow listed and was going to wait for it to sell and then list mine hoping the same person would want it and pay a premium. I looked the next morning and then the magenta was listed, so I decided to buy both and really hoping I can find the black plate as I think it would be really freaking cool to have a full printing plate set, even of a player I had never heard of before I pulled the first one last weekend

I have some cool stuff coming in soon, not Panthers related, not even football, and not even a player I had heard of before this past weekend I'll share it when they come in, but it's got the potential to be pretty cool

wow man, that Smitty is awesome, really amazing card, nice pickup jason Nice Stew 1/1 too

Thanks man, guess you could say I'm a fan of it as well, hahaha

As soon as I saw it I knew I had to have one, but was scared when I saw the first sell for $175 as I could never pay that much for this card. Thankfully a friend of mine pulled it in one of his 6, yes I said 6, cases of NT. In which he absolutely killed it, is keeping like 8 nice cards for his PC and will make over a grand in selling the rest, so he gave me a great deal on a trade, only taking back about $115 in value for it

Eat your hearts out guys 12/25

I'm also going to have something REALLY nice coming in next week, a buddy of mine pulled it and gave me a great trade deal for it. Objectively, it could be considered my best Panthers PC card, it would be a debate between a few, but as far as my favorite, it is still behind a few of my Stewart's (Silhouette and Prizm 1/1's) and maybe the GS and Crown Cam auto's that I pulled myself, it's close with those two I know you guys are going to like it a lot.

Finally found the last one I needed (gold /25) to finish the rainbow minus the black 1/1's, actually got it in on Monday but I started my new job this week and just haven't had a chance to get around to getting the picture together Green Patch 1/1 Gold Patch /5 Blue Jersey /10 Red Jersey /25 Green Auto /5 Green /5 Gold /25 Blue /100 Red /250 Base

I might be interested in some, just depends on what you're looking for them shoot me some prices on the Smitty SB ticket, Stewart plate, Stewart NT, Stewart Limited, and Smitty Panthers die cut I also know of a big Smitty collector who I'm sure would be interested in picking up the 1/1's that you've got

Pulling the TTT tonight made me want to pull out all my Cam cards and look at them at once, It made such a nice picture that I wanted to share it with you guys, a.k.a, try to make you jealous, hahahaha I pulled the GS Auto, both Crown Autos, and the TTT, Grid Gear, and Legends jerseys all myself The GS is 325/325, the TTT 1/27, and besides the plate, the lowest numbered is the Crown Jersey Auto at /25

Thanks guys, and yea, that's a 2011, so it's a rookie This also came in the mail today /25

Spent a lot of money buying a few boxes for myself for my birthday, hahaha At least I did pull this 1/27 - ebay 1/1, hahaha

I forgot, I did get this one in the mail the other day I REALLY want to pick up the green /15 one too, but the guy selling it on ebay is asking for WAY too much for it /150

That's an awesome card, I don't know why, but I still haven't picked one of those up yet, probably will do so in the middle of the summer when I can probably get it at the cheapest possible Can't wait to see what you've got coming, hopefully you have an honest seller I'm about to make a pretty "big" purchase myself, and I put it that way as it's really not a big purchase, a very tiny one in fact, but it's a card that I've been trying to find for a while and goes real nice with a few others I have

no, not really unless he's drafted by a major market team, he'll sell for very cheap until he gets on the field and produces. His first cards might have some decent value, but once the million and one products start coming out during the season, and he's stuck on the sideline still rehabbing, he'll sell for dirt cheap

Two great pickups, totally trumps my similar cards as I have that same Moose auto but not numbered, and have the Kuechly but the /99, now I'm jealous, hahaha And Jason, I love that auto'd pennant, really cool find with that one

No, because I've never typed his name into an eBay search before, hahahaha
