Trading Bases Group Break

For our 5th group break, we will be doing 2008 Donruss Threads. We will be opening 5 boxes. Teams will be around $27.75 a team. You will buy one team for $27.75 and draft another team for free.

Break is done. See video's below. Overall, not too bad a break. We pulled 3 more "hits" than advertised. Packages are all away and some of you should get your cards Wednesday!

Pricing now is based on current case prices. Final prices will be determined once the case is ordered. Prices should be within $1.00 of prices above unless there is a big jump or drop in the price of the case.

Because Threads is based on either retired or rookies, I would advise buying the older, more established teams as they will have more hits.
Teams like the Braves, Orioles, Redsox, Yankees, Giants, Reds, Dodgers, Cardinals etc. Buying the Marlins, Nationals, Bluejays etc. doesn't
make sense as they will have mostly rookies with very little retired players.

Threads is loaded as Donruss always is loaded. We should get 4 auto's/GU per box as well as 9 other inserts. There are Hobby hot
boxes as well!!!! Diamond Kings makes it's return as well as:
Generations
Century Stars
Century Legends
Dynasty
College Greats

There are non-baseball cards in this product as well. All of the non-baseball cards will be given away in the randomizer. I will post the
non-baseball list below so everyone can see what they will hit while they watch the video's. The College Greats will also be given
away as part of the non-baseball cards. So if there is no MLB team showing on the card, it will be part of the randomizer.

Also, some of the older teams that no longer are around are represented. I saw one card for the Expos. So the person who has the
Nationals (That's who the Expos became) will get the Expos cards. The older Washington team will go to the Texas Rangers owner etc.

Baltimore-- Pete Pianelli
Boston-- Jeff Levitsky
Chi. White Sox-- Richard labs
Cleveland-- Kevin Martens
Detroit-- Pat Looney
Kansas City-- Stu Gash
LA Angels-- Kelly Glazner

Milwaukee-- Milo Grummons
NY Mets-- Kevin Martens
Philadelphia-- Richard Labs
Pittsburgh-- Pete Pianelli
St. Louis-- Jerry Joy
San Diego-- Pete Pianelli
San Francisco-- William McCaleb
Washington-- Roger Erwin

This is the draft pick order. See below for the non-baseball and no MLB team cards list.

This is the randomizer list for the non-baseball cards as well as cards that show no MLB team like the College Greats. As these cards are pulled, simply go down the list. Example: 1st College Greats insert pulled goes to Kevin. Then if the second one pulled is a Baseball Americana Materials card of an Actor, then Roger would get that card and so on as the cards are pulled. Once Richard gets his card, Kevin then starts the list again.

Here are my payment options. All options, except for credit card, will be $27.75 per team you buy.

If you must pay with a credit card through Paypal, your total would be $29.00 per team. I have no desire to pay the fees ($1.11) as I shouldn't make any money off this break, and if I do, it should be very little. For Paypal with credit card, please pay $29.00 per team bought to:

NOTE: The D-Backs and Pirates did not have any cards pulled, base or insert, weird!
