What I've got for you today is a brief look at the Bowman Platinum I pulled. I initially purchased a couple of the value packs and a blaster so I could compare the two. Then I did it again and still hadn't posted anything. I didn't really see too much of it around the other blogs and here's a brief look at the stuff I pulled.
The first pack I opened had the base Yasiel Puig.
I know that looks like some kind of super gold refractor, but it's the base. It just scanned that way.
The second pack I opened had this Byron Buxton Refractor auto #146/199. This is already up on Ebay.
The rest of these are pics I took instead of scans. I didn't want pics for the cards I was going to sell.
I did a triple take when I saw this XFractor of Mike Piazza. Mike Piazza???? Yep, it's THAT Mike Piazza's cousin.
I did pretty well hitting Rangers, even though I didn't get any purple refractors. The only Baseball America Diamonds in the Rough I pulled was a Ranger and two of the three Xfractors I pulled were Rangers.
I pulled 6 of the Cutting Edge inserts. Notice that one of them is a dupe.
That's the same base Puig and the Top Prospects Puig too.
Finally, a couple other autos. That's a Beau Taylor refractor on top and an Anthony Meo on the bottom.
I managed to pull 10 gold parallels, 5 sapphire (blue) parallels and 1 ruby parallel. None of those were Rangers either so I'll probably offer them up in trades. There you have it.
Now where is that UPS truck?
Nice. I am somewhat ashamed to admit I have bought several packs of this looking for a puig. I am not too humble to ask for one in trade. Let me know what I could look to at the show tomorrow that might tempt you.
ReplyDeleteYou want base or insert Puig? I'll send NO the other one.
DeleteI will go for base puig. I picked some senators up for you today.
DeleteVery much appreciated.
DeleteI will take whatever Puigs gcrl does not Puig from you.
ReplyDeleteI knew Puig was bigtime, but now he's a verb. Nice.
DeleteThird in line for the Puigs.
ReplyDeleteHave I mentioned that my area's stores don't have any Ginter?
Have I mentioned that my area's stores don't have any Bowman Platinum?
Have I mentioned that my area has no card shops?
Have I mentioned there are no monthly card shows?
I'm begging on my knees on a street corner, man.
:)
Scott changed his mind so ill send you one.
DeleteIf you haven't packaged it up, never mind. Someone else is sending me one.
DeleteP.S.: A package for you hits post office today.
My deepest sympathies go out to you good sir for pulling 2 Bundy diecuts. 3 puigs, 3 autos... how many packs did you open?
ReplyDeleteIt was really 4 autos because I showed one of them when I was at the dentist. Also it was only two Puigs because I shows the same base card twice. I bought two blasters and 6 value packs spent way more than I intended too.
DeleteYou need one of the Bundys?
DeleteI want the Piazza.
ReplyDeleteWhat the Hell is a Puig?
You got it.
Deletea puig is something you step in when you're near a swamp.
ReplyDeleteI love Bowman Platinum. That's how you do shiny right. I just wish I could afford it. $6.50 a pack for 5 cards at my local shops. No thanks.
You want some Bravos from the BP?
Deletesilly question sir.
DeleteDid you get the package I sent your way last week yet?
Probably. I have a stack of unopened packages thanks to vacation.
DeleteLet the Owl have my Puigs. I got two yesterday.
ReplyDeleteA Puig & a Buxton? Play the lottery my friend. You're a very lucky man. Congratulations.
