Maybe it was sign up is late on a Saturday during football season.

Yeah I'm not fretting at the moment. It'll work out I'm sure.

Kind of at a loss right now. People seemed interested in bringing this back. Brought back a really cool product on a good deal. Have legit giveaways. And zero interest. So yeah, we might be dead in the water on the breaking here. Not sure what's going on.

How much did the case run you?
Posted on 10/16/17 at 4:12 pm to FleurDeLonestar
~1100.
46x29 (the combined spot eats $46.00) 1334-1100= 234 - 116 (4X29 max shipping, obviously multi spots drops this lower) = 118 - 35 (toploaders for thick cards, sleeves, graded card sleeves) = $83.00 leftover. I give away over that in value on almost any break with the giveaways at the end of the break.
Just wanted to break down the math for anyone thinking I get much out of this. I chose a product that you don't see broken very much, and if you do, the breakers are typically not offering big discounts on.
Would suck not to see it go for sure, but I'll figure something to do with it if not. Some really neat cards in this stuff. Think people would have enjoyed their haul.

Been out of town. Give me the rundown on the product? Im more than likely in.

So the next case has been ordered. We will be breaking 2016-17 NBA Spectra. This is essentially Gold Standard (which received such good reactions from you guys) on steroids. Plenty of great veteran auto relics (way less complete crap autos) and rookie autos to be had. 6 boxes. 10 cards per box. 7 hits per box. Another benefit to Spectra is the fact that there are Ben Simmons base cards worth quite a pretty penny. The quality of the cards that I've encountered has been superb, another thing GS and Spectra have in common as opposed to the Noirs, Immacs, NTs of the world.
The checklist is far superior to GS. There are way fewer random "legends" taking up autos and junk bench guys. The cards are also very aesthetically pleasing as each different color has a different refractor design. This product was released post trade deadline as well so some of the players have their new teams as cards. Some have both. The card will go to the team SHOWN on the card (see: Buddy Hield).
Spots will only be $46/each. They will be first come, first serve with a maximum of 4 teams per participant. We will randomize and do everything like we have in the past. Further details to follow
Btw the next product we do WILL be a higher card count, heavier base product. Gold Standard was enjoyed so much, I couldn't pass up the opportunity to break Spectra. I'm personally hoping the winding down of the baseball season will allow us to creep in with some Bowman Chrome action. The gloves are back baby. Let's do work folks and pull some filth
Here's some of my personal Spectra collection. Unlike football, the autos are on card for the true RC line, the Hields on the left.

Shame, I've been wanting to do one, but I'm perpetually on the road and hit or miss when it online and everything... things just haven't been ripe for me the last few months to be able to do one... really wanted to get in an NBA break or two

If it comes to it, I may buy a box from you if you need to break it up.
But let's give it some time to see what happens with the thread.

Not a big hoops fan. I am in for the next baseball one for sure. Don't want to see the breaks stop.
