In the mid 90s at eagle hill stamp and coin in presque isle Maine I bought a pack of doneuss baseball for 1.79$ this is when the Elite subset #1000 was the cream of the crop. I was 20 years old and I pulled the entire 10 card Elite set from 1 pack. The values were from 100 was the lowest and 500 was the highest and there were 3 500$ cards. Within a week I sold it for 1200 in Portland. A few months later doneuss had announced the product had "hot packs" people everywhere started pulling the whole set packs or the half set packs. The price plummeted but I sold fast and gave the money to my mother. She had never had a vacation up to that point of her life. She was 48 and I'll never forget her crying.its the only time I made my mother cry. Just felt like sharing that with you guys
Don’t know if I know you but I spent half my life up there in Houlton area and Mars hill for a while. I used to run the sports cards side of the business at Shiretown Coins in Houlton
I know you posted this comment probably well over a year ago, but that's just a beautiful story man, I'm glad you sold quick and were able to give your mother an amazing memory!

Incredible card. Probably the quirkiest thing on there is that the left hand side has the players' home run totals... and for Vladdy Jr, it just lists his minor league total (since this card was made before his mlb debut). Strange choice, but kinda cool!
A guy from Seattle in 86 found a Honus Wagner inside a Don quixote book from an abandoned antique shop... I read it in the local news paper when I was a KID .. I'm pretty sure that's the biggest hit I ever Heard
@@philipwilcoxen8064 7 figures?!?!!?!?!?!! It has Paul Goldschmidt, Rhys Hoskins, Kyle Schwarber, Juan Gonzalez, Nelson Cruz, Gary Sanchez, Hideki Matsui, George Springer, Dale Murphy, Francisco Lindor, Darryl Strawberry, Bo Jackson, Andres Galaragga, Kris Bryant, and Anthony Rizzo on it...It is also full of sticker autos. Come on man. This card would have a hard time fetching $100,000. Your drawn to the big HOFers, Trout, Acuna, Soto, Miggy, Pujols and a few stars, but over a third of your autos you'd be mad to pull in almost all high end products since they're under $100 as individual autos on card, let alone stickers.
As a customer that buys into many box breaks, I can't help but worry about people using scales on these high end boxes. Luckily for John this box was taken directly from a freshly opened case. However imagine had this box been one of the others from the future breaks. Almost certainly those get weighed and this box would get cherry picked INSTANTLY cause it would weigh significantly more than the others. The only truly fair random breaks are in fact ones like this that take place on camera and are from the VERY first boxes from the freshly opened case.
So I never thought of it like that, but thanks to your comment, I am subscribing to the channel because, now equipped with this knowledge, I have infinitely more trust in these guys knowing that they're providing legit breaks with fair practices.
@@mikepollock6235 well not necessarily my dude... What about those other boxes from the case that weren't used? Those will be used for later breaks. I'd love to think that nobody will put them on a scale, but I think we all know that's not very likely. That's why I said the only way to get a fair shake in a break is if it's on camera and the box is from a freshly opened case. There's so many instances (especially with high end boxes) where they only open like 2-4 boxes per break. Then the other boxes are put to the side off camera and used for later breaks... Once they're off camera then all bets are off! It's very hard for me to imagine that these breakers don't put these things on scales considering just how valuable these cards are becoming and how incredibly easy it would be to cherry pick the boxes with the booklets and bat knob cards. The really valuable hits always tend to weigh more. It's sad, but I personally have zero faith that it's completely fair and random. I think the odds for the really big hits are weighed VERY heavily in favor of whoever is breaking them. No pun intended lol
@@billybats4745 We number all of the boxes we do for these types of breaks and have random.org choose randomly. We post all of our randomizers to our TH-cam channel and broadcast it live doing so.
It's not if you think about it. Sticker autos. A couple of which had to be forged cuz a few of these guys were dead before they would've had a chance to sign it.
@@bigandyscards2032 That depends for every eBay auction ever - you have to get to the right audience, which means you'd likely have to consign it via one of the largest sellers to get your highest sale price, not sell it on an account with 100 sales.

OMFG! I heard it was hit, but to see it on a box break is insane. The collection set hit, wow. How do you even price that? Get on a plane pick it up, and fly directly to psa. Just insane!
The value is probably close to the sum of its parts because its a sticker book. How much would you have to spend to go out and buy one sticker auto card for each of this 50 players? Probably somewhere in the neighborhood of 3500-5000? You would end up with essentially the same thing as this booklet, except you'd have more cards and in a traditional format for easier storage/grading purposes.
@@geckster109 You aren't taking into consideration its unique and 1 of 1, stupidest math ever. There is $100 autograph cards and $5,000 autograph cards of the same player in the hobby, sticker or not...based on the rarity of the card you goldfish. Jealous replies like yours get what they deserve...crushed.
@uniform13 Yeah, 1 of 1's are almost non existent. I bet there isn't a single 1 of 1 anywhere for sale right now. The market has been FLOODED with 1 of 1's over the past 5 years....I guess you're new to the hobby kid. And please show me the sticker auto of anyone in this booklet that sold for $5,000....thanks!
If anyone ever has a better pull in the future, wake me up if you can...I will be the guy holding my breath till i turn blue.So i will be the guy who looks like a ripe BLUEBERRY. Nice going man... Enjoy and prosper.
I still can't believe how close I was to winning this card... as a matter of fact I was the first one to buy in... just didn't want to spend the money for the other 2 seats... we'll I was happy for john... and yes I did lose some sleep over it.
One card to rule them all, one card to find them, One card to bring them all, and in the excitement bind them; In the Land of baseball where the heroes lie.
That card is so freaken awesome. I dont even know what I would do with that thing. I'll hit a monster one day. Also, just wanted to say you were one of the people that got me back into collecting, I was in a few of your breaks and hit some nice cards, not anything like that book though haha
I was actually thinking about buying a box or two at my local shop. Not anymore! Hahaha! I have a couple of those autographs - Hank Aaron, Alex Rodriguez, and Dale Murphy (Dale Murphy for the Hall of Fame). However, I am a Star Wars collector. I have 6 cases of Masterwork coming on release day. Hopefully, I can pull the 40-signature card or a huge pen relic from my cases. Awesome product hit. It's a $15,000 to $30,000 card. Congratulations!
My first break and my only break whisper up flawless 2019 box two boxes two cases briefcases I got the Ichiro 101 patch Auto and a Cal Ripken jr. Although not bad number 2 7
That is by far the best card I have ever seen pulled from a box/pack.
Not even close!
@BrutalJuice It would be cool if they made a display that housed it fully open up so you can see every single auto
