Bought a Veronica Mars Season 2 box from Scifi Cards. Can't wait for it to arrive!

Do you mean the Citizen Kane card? I think that was it but I may be mistaken. I don't have one handy but I did find one on eBay:

Don't forget......

Open That Box! day is this Saturday, April 9. Just two days away now. I'm hoping for good participation and some surprises.

My box of Wacky Packages Old School 2 came in today from the Topps store, so I'm good to go for OTBD 2011

i bought 4 boxes of BSG over the weekend but they did not mail them out till yesterday so i dont think they will be here in time so i will only have my one other box of BSG to open : (

My case of Dangerous Divas has arrived so I shall be opening the 12 boxes for open that box day

From a Happy Millhouse

Cool. Glad to hear you all are stocked, though sorry to hear your BSG boxes didn't show up yet nick9819. Glad to hear you have back-up.

My five packs of Cartoon Sketches left Atlanta last night. If they make it through the Nashua sorting facility this afternoon, I'm golden for tomorrow.

Tomorrow can't get here soon enough. The seller on the Galaxy 5 box got it to me at warp speed and it's been sooooooo very hard to keep from ripping it open.

I've got my box ready too. Something a bit untraditional -- but not too much so.

Will probably open the forum up early this evening for anyone overseas where it's already April 9th. And I guess it already is now for people in Australia, New Zealand, Singapore, Malaysia, etc.

The rest of the boxes I ordered for tomorrow arrived this afternoon, so I now have 5 boxes waiting to be opened

Unless my case of Dangerous Divas arrives today (doubtful for a Saturday), I shall be bereft of any box to open or paw at longingly.

Have fun anyway guys

Hi All:

Thanks everyone who is posting in the Open That Box! day thread. As a small thank you, I'll be giving away a Bettie Page Private Collection "FOB" promo to one random person who posts there and who has shared their OTB day experience. It'll just be random, not based on the best post or anything like that. All either through all of the names in a hat or use the random number generator to determine the winner.

Thanks again for participating.

Harris

Unfortunately I had to work today so I won't be able to open my boxes until later today.

I forgot about OTBD but just got home from work....off to open Dangerous Divas and Superman Returns.

Thanks for organizing this day, mods and admin(s)! it was alot of fun opening a box and seeing other people's boxes. Cant wait till next year!

Sure. And thanks everyone who opened a box this weekend. Thanks for making it another successful Open That Box! day. I hope everyone enjoyed it.

By my calculation, we had just about 50 people participate from seven different countries.

By the way, I have just pulled a name at random (using the random number generator) from all those who participated on Saturday to win a Bettie Page Private Collection "FOB" promo card...and the winner is "TheUberBob". Bob, I'll be in touch by e-mail shortly.

Congratulations, Bob!

OVER for another year
