COST
 $17 for two teams (one in both tiers) and that covers shipping.  

LAST BREAK DISCOUNT
Those people who were in last month's break, the cost to you will be $16.

$17 FOR TWO TEAMS, YOU PICK ONE IN EACH TIER.  ($17 COVERS BOXES, SHIPPING AND HANDLING)  THEIR WILL BE NO INTERNATIONAL ON THIS BREAK AS I AM WORKING ON WAYS TO SHIP TO CANADA CHEAPER.  THIS IS THE TIER SYSTEM I WILL USE ON EVERY ONE OF MY BREAKS. $17 IS ABOUT THE SAME PRICE OF A BLASTER BOX, IN THIS BREAK THERE SHOULD BE A LARGE AMOUNT OF BASE AND INSERT CARDS.  THERE HAS BEEN A SMALL BUMP IN SHIPPING RATES WITH THE USPS, PLUS I AM TRYING TO REDUCE MY COLLECTION A BIT SO YOU SHOULD EXPECT TO GET A LOT OF EXTRAS.

EXTRA TEAMS
IF YOU WANT TO PICK ANOTHER TWO TEAMS (ONE IN EACH TIER, JUST ADD ANOTHER $14.

A NEW PAYPAL ACCOUNT:  
$17 AS GIFT TO jasonjasonp12@gmail (dot) com

In order to keep my few items from my wifes Ebay chaos, I had to create a new account.  Please send as $17 as a GIFT to jasonjasonp12@gmail (dot) com please include your team picks and address in the comments section on the paypal pay submit screen.  That just helps me find addresses much faster!

EXTRAS
I TRY TO ADD SOME EXTRAS TO EVERYONE'S PACKAGE.  THIS IS JUST A LITTLE EXTRA TO SAY THANK YOU!

DOUBLES
UNLESS YOU WANT TO KEEP YOUR DOUBLES, THEY WILL GO IN A DOUBLES PILE TO RANDOMIZE AT THE END OF THE BREAK.  THIS GIVES YOU AN OPPORTUNITY TO GET OTHER GREAT CARDS FROM OTHER TEAMS.  TO KEEP YOUR DOUBLES PLEASE STATE IN YOUR COMMENT.  THIS BREAK SHOULD HAVE VERY LITTLE DOUBLES.

MULTI TEAM CARDS
THERE ARE GOING TO BE MULTI TEAM CARDS SUCH AS LEADER CARDS.  THOSE WILL BE SET ASIDE AND WILL BE RANDOMIZED BETWEEN THE TEAMS ON THE CARD. 

USA/WORLD CARDS
THERE IS A CHANCE OF USA/WORLD CARDS.  IF THE PLAYER IS A JR OR COLLEGE USA PLAYER IT WILL GO TO THE TEAM THAT DRAFTED HIM.  SUCH AS HUSTON STREET USA CARD WILL GO TO THE A'S BECAUSE THEY DRAFTED HIM.  A MLB IN A WORLD/USA JERSEY WILL GO TO THE TEAM IT PLAYED FOR THAT YEAR.  THIS INCLUDES THE FUTURE GAME, WHERE EVER THAT PLAYER PLAYED THE YEAR OF THE FUTURES GAME WAS PLAYED WILL GET THAT TEAM.

MULITI TEAM AUTO/GU HIT
THIS SHOULD BE VERY RARE, BUT IF THIS HAPPENS IT WILL BE RANDOMIZED BETWEEN THE TEAMS ON THE CARD.  WHAT TEAM DOESN'T GET THE CARD I WILL COMP A GM USED OR AUTO FROM MY COLLECTION TO SUBSTITUTE THE HIT AS A GIFT. 


LIST
I LIKED THE IDEA OF LISTING EACH CARD EACH GROUP MEMBER GOT AFTER THE BREAK.  EACH GROUP MEMBER WILL GET A CARD BY CARD BREAK DOWN ON WHAT THEY GOT, PLAYERS NAMES, AND INSERTS.  I WANT YOU ALL TO GET YOUR CARDS AS QUICK AS POSSIBLE SO INSTEAD OF POSTING A VIDEO A DAY, AND TAKING SO MUCH TIME MESSING WITH THE VIDEO PART, I'M JUST GOING TO LIST AND SEND WITHIN THE WEEK.  I BREAK ON SATURDAY AND WILL USUALLY SHIP BY THE NEXT FOLLOWING SATURDAY.  HAVING A WIFE WHO IS A DIRECTOR OF NURSING AT A HOMELESS SHELTER IN DOWNTOWN ST. LOUIS, AND FOUR YOUNG KIDS, I DO THE BEST I CAN TO GET YOU ALL YOUR CARDS WITH EXTRAS!


RANDOMIZED SPECIAL CARD(S)
EVERY BREAK I THROW IN A SPECIAL CARD(S) AND RANDOMIZE.  THIS MONTH'S SPECIAL CARD TO BE GIVEN AWAY IS A 1987 TOPPS BARRY BONDS ROOKIE CARD.  THIS BONDS WILL BE RANDOMIZED BETWEEN ALL PEOPLE.




ONES WHO DON'T GET A HIT (RELIC OR AUTO)

** The people who DO NOT get a hit will get randomized to win a 1983 TOPPS WADE BOGGS ROOKIE CARD!  




MAKE PICKS BY: APRIL 6, 2013 NOON CT, BREAK WILL HAPPEN SOMETIME AFTER THAT TIME.  WILL BEGIN POSTING THE CARDS FROM THE BREAK LATER THAT NIGHT, THE CARDS WILL BE LISTED INDIVIDUALLY UNDER EACH PERSON.  (AS LONG AS I HAVE THE BOXES BY SATURDAY, I WILL BREAK THEM ON 4/6/13.  I HAVE YET HAVE HAD TO MOVE THE DATE.)

4 GREAT BOXES BEING BROKEN (8 HITS ON AVG.)


2003 UPPER DECK S2 BOX - 1 HIT

2007 TOPPS S1 HTA JUMBO BOX - 2 HITS

2004 BOWMAN HTA JUMBO BOX - 4 RELICS

2002 UPPER DECK HONOR ROLL BOX - 1 HIT

Just comment below your teams, if you don't have the money now but want in this break...no worries.  If you have the money now that is great, but I can wait till the APRIL 1st if that helps on some of your paydays.

    1. Hey! Thanks for getting in this break. I have pushed this break to more later in April due to several issues beyond my control. Since I wasn't online much on my blog this month I want to try to get a few more people in. This break will happen Sunday 4/28. Why Sunday the 28th? This weekend is my wifes birthday and I forgot. :(
