It is that time of year again to do some Triple Threads!
I have always loved this product, but I don't like to chance it on a box, and so I do my thing. I take the price of a box, and I try and get what I can for that amount of my team, and typically I come out way ahead of where I would if I bought a box and traded the stuff in there for the Red Sox!
Looks like boxes are going for around 165 this year, so that is my limit. I might take a slow roll on this though. When these come out, the prices are outrageous on stuff. But when other products start to roll out, the prices tend to drop. But I like to get stuff in quicker than that. Let's see if I can be patient this year!
Typical box comes with this in there (disregarding the base and parallels, just going with the hits) :
1) 1 Autographed Triple Relic (#d to 99 or less)
2) 1 Autographed Rookie Card or Unity Autograph Jumbo Relic (#d to 99 or less)
3) 1 Triple Threads Unity Jumbo Relic (#d to 36 or less)
4) 1 Triple Relic Card (#d to 36 or less)
5) 4 Parallels Cards (#d to 340 or less)
6) 6 Base Cards (unnumbered)
Here is my status :
$165.00 to spend ($105.13 spent - $59.87 left to spend)
