    Sold them to a former teacher at school....I paid like 10 a piece....He agreed to give me 150 a piece. He put money down and then got arrested that night for dui, fleeing scene of accident, etc. He caused a fatal car crash. Never saw him again and never got other half of money. :(

    man could your life be any more of a soap opera? amazing, do you ever have GOOD luck? (though even at $75 apiece ungraded that's a little better than the current ebay price.)

    I recently opened a box of 2006/07 SP Authentic Hockey, the one where they put 05-06 RC into the 06-07 boxes.

    I pulled a Malkin and Lundqvist Auto RC in the same box. I was very happy.

    Got a Terry Bradshaw auto out of basic topps yesterday. Instasold for 150.00 WHOOP WHOOP.

    This seems eerily similar to me saying I got 4 out of 5 tonight in keno and only lost like 500 in the past month trying for it.

    Interesting thread. I was almost done with page two before I remembered I have an unopened set of the 89 UD with KGJ rookie. I also have several unopened packs. I bought the sets because I wanted the Griffey rookie and never got one opening packs.

    I haven't thought about those cards in over a decade. I need to find where I stashed the damn things.
