Re: Official OS Sports Card Collecting Thread

I'm not really looking to complete the set. At least right now. I may get into that down the road, but I'd rather start with something around $50, just in case I end up not getting as into it as I hope to.

I prefer Team BoxBreak for my box/case breaks if and when I do them.

They're on twitter ( @TeamBoxBreak ) as well, and Bryan is fantastic with his customer service.

I know some websites give you a discount if you record your box/case break and put the video on YouTube. All you have to do is say you bought it from there and print out their logo and hold it up for a few seconds.

Definitely something to think about if you record that stuff anyways. Saves you some money.

I know http://atlsportscards.com/ does it, if anybody is interested.

I haven't done it before, but they have videos on the website from people that have.

Re: Official OS Sports Card Collecting Thread

So I purchased a Hobby box the other day in search of an Almora(this one http://www.comc.com/Cards/Baseball/2...Almora/6265204) and came up empty. Was this close to going out and getting another box, but instead got lucky with a ebay auction and won one for 30 bucks with shipping.

So in the end I spent a total of 69 bucks for a hobby box and this card. All for about 20 bucks less that what a box would cost me at the card shop. I call this a win-win situation.

Re: Official OS Sports Card Collecting Thread

What are the best options for 2012 boxes? I'd like to get started there and try and get some Harper and Trout cards, then work my way up to this year's boxes.

Bowman is the best bet for prospects.

You'll get Harpers and Trouts in most base sets. Depends on what kind of cards you are looking for.

What box did you pull your Trout from?
