Case Breaks: 2018 Topps Tier Baseball..ABSOLUTELY CRUSHED IT..THE LUCK CONTINUES

 

Now you know I couldn't NOT buy any wax with the Profits I made off my last two purchases. I decided (against my better judgement lol) to go with Topps Tier One. There are soooo many sweet looking cards in Topps Tier but after I locked in at about $94 a box (they are now up to $130 a box) and saw some of the case breaks..I had a sinking feeling in my stomach. Why the HELL did I buy a case of this stuff?! Breaks were BRUTAL..but hey you never know, all it takes is one monster card to make it all worthwhile and plus, it didn't cost me anything out of pocket since I paid with profit from selling. So...was it a terrible mistake? Here's my break

Overall Thoughts: OH...MY...GOD. MY LUCK HAS REACHED UNBELIEVABLE HEIGHTS. I literally just saw a case of this opened where the McGwire I pulled was literally the best card in the case. This case started out right off the bat, card #1 box #1 with a Jeter auto numbered to 15 and it just kept producing BIG TIME. Two 1/1's of STANTON AND ICHIRO! A Dual auto with Ozzie Smith and a Big Mac Auto! Just WOW. Even some of the other smaller hits were nice (Happ auto to 10, autos of Juan Gone, Galarraga, Pettitte, Rookie autos of Ozzie Albies and Walker Buehler). To say I destroyed this case is a HUGE understatement. That's two more cards going to the top 5 and now..I can't see how any card this point forward makes the top 5 with the powerhouse cards that are on there now! I'm just still at a loss for words. Absolutely cannot believe what kind of huge hot streak I've been on. I'm just enjoying the ride! I have a case of 2018 Finest coming in next week so we'll see if that continues the streak. Here's pics!
