9 Cards Short of a base set Several damaged base cards 1 parallel No auto no sketch, oh well i knew this could happen.
I probably won't be buying any more of this set. I am going to write to topps to see if they will replace the damaged base cards, and help me complete my set.

My second case.
Box 1- Nothing Box 2- Nothing Box 3- German Butler Auto Box 4- Katanga Auto Box 5- Sketch Box 6- Nothing Box 7- Monkey Man Auto Box 8- Sketch
3 Autos, 2 Sketches.
Absolute Ridiculous. I wonder if they will do anything about it.

That's a nice sketch, it's a Matthew Goodmanson.

Funny thing about eBay, the going price is not really "the going price" until it is sold. I would say the original asking price was $20k and now has lowered it.
We'll see if there is a taker for the car. Remember the first few Harrison Ford 30th Anniversary auto that appeared on eBay sold for $11k before it settled around $5-6K as recent as yesterday on eBay.

Just opened a box today:
- 1 base set - 1 box topper (P2) - 1 Philip Tan auto - 2 parallels #89 (458/500) & #22 (252/500)
After pulling the auto early, it was kind of fun to open the remaining packs in search of that extra auto or sketch. No such luck though...maybe next time =)This message has been edited. Last edited by: Booker,

Here is a quick video of some of my hits from several cases. I had doubles/triple of some of the autos. The sketches were a very tough. I hope you enjoy the video.
