3 Box Baseball Mixer + 2 True Mystery Packs, 2012 Panini Prizm,2012 Topps Series 2, & 1991 Classic Baseball]

This break will be scheduled once it is 50% full. I usually break around 8pm MST. It will be broadcast live on Ustream (batcavelv).

Cards featuring now defunct teams will go to the new franchise. For example, Montreal would count as Washington. Multiplayer cards will go to the team of the player featured on the top/right side of the card.

I will be opening the following products:

1. 2012 Panini Prizm Hobby (2 autos + 3 Prizms)
2. (2) mid-range True Mystery Packs (see description below)
3. 2012 Topps Series 2 Jumbo Rack Box (18 packs, 36 cards per pack)
4. 1991 Classic Best Minors Factory Set (commons sent upon request only)

True Mystery Packs were sold on Twitter earlier this year. I bought 2 mid-range packs and never opened the package. Each pack is supposed to contain 5 hits from any sport. A superstar auto was supposed to be inserted 1:10 packs. He listed RGIII and Ryne Sandberg as examples. Here is how I will handle the hits:

Non-baseball hits will go to their respected MLB team. For example, a Bengals hit would go to the Reds. A Jets hit would go to the Yankees, etc. If the team does not have a corresponding baseball team, such as Buffalo or Charlotte, the hit will be randomed off on random.org.

Beckett Grading Submission

I just received an offer from BGS. If I submit at least 25 cards to them for their 20-day grading service, they will only charge me $9 per card. Normally, it costs $12 for this service. Certified autographed cards cost $1 extra.
Currently, I only have about 10 cards to grade, so I can't take advantage of this offer. That's where you come in. If you have some cards you would like to get graded by the top grading company, let me know. Perhaps we could send in cards together.
Here is how I envision this working. You send your cards to me, and I would submit the entire order to BGS. If you're worried about me stealing your cards, I can provide you with a list of collectors who would vouch for me. BGS would grade the cards within 20 business days and ship them back to me. I would then ship them to you.
There is a bit of fine print. We would have to split the shipping and insurance charges. I would calculate this on a per-card basis. Also, I ask that you pay for return shipping; however, if you join my box breaks, I can send them with your order for little or no extra money.
Once I committ to Beckett, I only have 30 days to submit the order, so it is rather time sensitive. If this sounds good to you, please contact me on Twitter at @batcavelv or email me at batcavelv@comcast.net
