This past weekend I spent a little bit of time opening a pair of 2015 Topps Update Hobby boxes. I should have ended the break with 4 buybacks. I know that the odds on the boxes are approximate and they can run a little bit hot, or cold, and sometimes as collectors we walk away with a little more or less of something.
Well, a little more would probably not be totally accurate in terms of beating the odds on the Buyback cards in my boxes...Here's a look at my haul, 11 of them came out of one box......
and my best Buyback card has to be the best Buyback card that I have pulled. Great card and it is in great condition too......
I have seen other collectors pull really cool Buyback cards, but I never seem to land any of them. It appears that I finally caught up a little bit this weekend.
That last one is one of the nicest cards I have seen stamped!
ReplyDeleteI love buy backs. I may be the only collector that does.
I know other collectors who love the Buybacks. Like all cards, somebody likes them. I just wish they didn't have the stamp.
DeleteIf that HR leaders buyback is for trade or sale please let me know. It would look great in my McCovey collection!
ReplyDeleteIf I am inspired to move it, you're first on my list...
DeleteSo is Santo Alcala and Octavio Dotel related? or dopplegangers? they look so much alike
ReplyDeleteThe hair isn't quite right, but they might be....
DeleteWhoa, you hit the buyback jackpot on that last one! :D
ReplyDeleteI know. Really nice card.
