It’s been a few days since I posted. I was visiting family and wanted to spend some time with them instead of sitting at the laptop or opening up a few more packs of cards. But once I got back I couldn’t wait to crack open a few packs. I had four packs of 2014 Panini Rookies and Stars free from a purchase at Dave and Adam’s Card World a while back. Here’s some of the highlights. Some Stars… I wasn’t sure what to expect. But I really liked the look of the cards, until I turned them over. Great front design, not so great back design.  It’s the same photo and it looks like a lot of other Panini sets. And some of the rookies, no big pull, but I always like to see a Johnny Football. Now each pack comes with an insert. As with most Panini sets there are about 20 different insert sets. Here is a nice Champ Bailey Super Bowl Card, DeMarco Murray Pro Bowl, and a Calvin Pryor Draft Class. My Scanning was a little off today, sorry about that. And the final insert was a little bit more than an insert. A really […]

I did it again.  I thought I’d take another crack at a football repack.  I’ve seen some people have some pretty good luck online but I’m still skeptical.  It was a decent price and came with 4 packs of cards plus one autograph card and one jersey card. Here’s what I pulled. Four Packs 2016 Leaf Draft 2015 Leaf Draft 2014 Rookies and Stars 2013 Topps Football 2016 Leaf Draft – 5 Cards Deforest Buckner Tra Carson Leonard Floyd Robert Nkemdiche Laquon Treadwell (Gold)    2015 Leaf Draft – 5 Cards Javorius Allen Todd Gurley Josh Harper Matt Jones Stefon Diggs (Gold)     Topps Football and the Rookies and Stars Nothing special to report here, but snagged a couple of Buffalo cards. Robert Woods Topps Rookie Cyril Richardson R&S Rookie CJ Spiller R&S My autographed card was the following… 2011 Playoff Contenders #178 Stanley Havili Come on a fullback, but my memorabilia card got quite a bit better. 2006 Donruss Gridiron Gear Rookie Gridiron Gems Jumbo Prime – DeAngelo Williams #205 (Numbered 127 of 150) Again nothing huge but I really like the DeAngelo Williams card and I snagged a couple of nice Buffalo cards.  I’ll try not to […]

It’s been a few days since I got this month’s edition of the Loot Locker.  No Gurley Rookie Numbered to 99 this time, but not a bad haul.  Here’s what was in the box! Four packs 2015 Panini Contenders (x2) 2015 Topps Platinum 2015 Topps Finest 2015 Panini Contenders 2015 Panini Contenders #132 – Rookie Ticket – Danielle Hunter (Base) 2015 Topps Platinum Matt Forte #19 (Veteran Base) Mark Ingram #37 (Veteran Base) Maxx Williams #140 (Rookie Base) Devin Smith #108 (Rookie X-Fractor) Matthew Stafford #36 (Gold)   The three base cards added to my duplicates (with no Bills) and I already had one of the Devin Smith X-Fractors, but the Stafford Gold card got me closer to completing the Platinum Gold Set. (23 more to go) 2015 Topps Finest Garrett Grayson (RC) #86 Jalen Strong (RC) #92 Tom Brady #140 Jamal Charles #143    2015 Topps Finest QB Cuts Red Refractor #QBC-BP (Numbered 4/50) Not a bad card at all. Thanks Loot Locker, until next month.
