Gint-A-Cuffs II: Boxtopper and Packs 1-8

Alright, bitches and bitchettes. The gauntlet has been thrown and warrior needs food badly. Let’s cuff it up!

We got this box from the same case as Beardy’s monster box. Will lightning strike twice?

Some People Will Buy ANYTHING!

We’ve opened our share of the case split with Beardy and we’re still working on our Gint-A-Cuffs scoring to figure out which is the best box. But in the interim, I did a little searching on ebay to see how much some of this stuff is selling for.

Case Hit FAIL

It’s a feeling we all know too well. You’re opening a band new box of wax. Visions of Gehrig cut signatures and rookie sensation parallels are dancing through your head.

My First Trade (Through the Blogs)

It was bound to happen eventually, but I made my first trade through the blog (TTB) recently. Play at the Plate stepped up to the, well…um..plate, and we exchanged a boatload of Ginters.

He had seen our trade show loot, inquired about the minis and I sent off virtually all I had in return for […]

Post-Show Post: The Goods

It was a mall show, and as Andy said, our first in at least a decade if not closer to 15 years, so we weren’t really sure what to expect. You saw the specs Andy […]
