Repack – Another Try
So I stopped by the local Target and picked up some cards yesterday. I saw this $12 repack and thought I’d take another shot and see what I’d pull. It says 10 packs. They are all retail packs, but here is the rundown. Two 2013 Prizm Two 2014 Score Two 2016 Leaf One 2014 Prestige One 2014 Hit One 2015 Topps One 2015 Rookies & Stars Let’s start with the 2013 Prizm. I’ve been collecting this set for a while now. And just completed the base veteran and rookies. So why am I showing a couple of random cards, because both of these are base cards I need to help with the second set. Also pulled one insert. A Decade of Dominance Troy Aikman. 2013 Panini Prizm Jacoby Jones #3 2013 Panini Prizm Marquess Wilsom #266 2013 Panini Prizm Troy Aikman Decade of Dominance #15 Next here are the highlights of the two packs of 2014 score.

So I thought it was good time to update again. I’ve got a pretty sweet spreadsheet going. It’s full of tabs and rows and columns. It’s full of formulas and formatting. I told you I was a geek. I spent about 4 hours counting and organizing my 2015 Topps Football and it turns out while I have one complete set I am 15 cards away from a second one. And unfortunately I have 10 of one card in the set. (#382 Tony Romo T60) I’ve now got 16 sets completely entered in to my database, although I have more 2013 Prizm to open. Along with 554 Jim Kelly cards and 175 Thurman Thomas cards. I have twelve 1987 Topps Jim Kelly #362 (Rookie) as my most counted card right now. Pretty fitting to have 12 of a Jim Kelly Card! One side note is that the Jim Kelly count only counts cards that I’ve separated from sets. Being a set collector, his cards also appears in the sets where […]
