Verified Trader,
I felt like splurging on myself today, so dropped down to Wayne's SC for some fun.
The boxes I acquired and opened this afternoon were:
15-16 Upper Deck Series 1 Retail
14-15 Upper Deck Series 1 Hobby
15-16 OPC Platinum Hobby
Below are the breaks in that order, and yes the 15-16 Series 1 one was a total kick to the junk so-to-speak. But it got better as I went along.
BOX BREAK # 1

Moving on from that nightmare.........
BOX BREAK #2

Marquee Rookie - Mikko Rantanen - M42
Marquee Rookie - Mikko Rantanen - M42 Rainbow
Marquee Rookie - Connor McDavid - M1 ***Two Hits in One Box :dance: (BOTH PC)
In Summary
I really wish I didn't buy the first box, as it felt like I bought a blaster and certainly did not get good value.
The 2nd box was obviously a much better outcome!
And the 3rd box of OPC Platinum was a ton of fun to break, as it was my first time with this product.
> The Rantanen Rainbow RC had some defect on the surface...so a little disappointed , but every other rookie card pulled was in beautiful condition.
> A couple of nice Murray Marquee rookies, with one being a TRAXX
> and two more mint condition McDavid Marquee Rookies to put in my PC
Thanks for looking everybody.....And if anyone has interest in any of the cards pulled today that I did not mark as PC, please feel free to send me a message.
