Time To Resume Cardfest! Day 3 Breaks!

I've been trying like hell to open cards this week, but between work, Christmas Shopping, and hanging out with friends after work, I just haven't the time. Finally I have a little time to myself so it's time to get back to ripping! Here's what's on tap for tonight!

So we're going to finish up opening the rest of what I got for Optic. I opened the hanger packs Sunday, so now it's time for the 10 Blasters. Time to go Simmons hunting again!

Overall Thoughts: AND THIS IS WHAT CARDFEST IS ALLLL ABOUT! That Simmons Silver Holo RC is a MONEY CARD and has so much to room to grow. It's a lot more affordable than his Prizm Silver, but if Ben Simmons keeps on playing like he has been, it's got soooo much potential to grow. It's rare to actually pull a card that you've been targeting, in retail no less, but I did it! In the same box I got a Patrick McCaw Rookie Auto Gold to 10! McCaw is a good young player and a very popular  Warriors team and this was just cherry on the top after the Ben Simmons pull. Then, just to add to the great run, I pulled a Jaylen Brown Purple Holo RC. Just a super fun break overall and at least with this product, this is why I aimed to buy so much of it. The Simmons is a Top 5 pull of the year no doubt. What a great way to restart Cardfest for the weekend. Unfortunately, we'll have to wait until tomorrow for more! Here's a look at the better cards!

  1. After seeing Curry, Harden, and Westbrook rookie card soar in prices the past few years... I feel like basketball cards offer a lot of bang for your buck.

    1. Yeah and I think with Prizm being priced out for a lot of collectors, people might turn to Optic for a more affordable rookie card with the same kind of technology
