2008 Upper Deck Masterpieces Retail Box Breaks (5 boxes, Just The Hits)





















2008 Upper Deck Masterpieces Retail Box
24 packs, 4 cards per pack
Cost:  $9.99 (Blowout Cards - Black Friday deal)

The first six boxes were a lot of fun to open.  These were too, but perhaps the hits in these were not quite as good.  This finishes off the Masterpieces bash.

Box 1:
























A pinstripe is a lot harder to pull on these than one would expect (at least in retail boxes).

  1. Very nice! I missed out on the black Friday deals but picked up two retail boxes for $15 each the next weekend, which still seems like a good deal for this product. Can't wait to get 'em Monday!

    I am a huge fan of this set and really like the different base parallels, so I try to trade for a few hear and there.

  7. Hey lonestarr,

    Yeah, it's a sweet card. It's available.

    I also have that Aramis Ramirez Future Stars 110/199 set aside for you and 3 Cubs Museum Collection cards from 1995 Pinnacle if you want them (Willie Banks, Randy Myers, Brian McRae). I can send you scans of those Museum cards if u want. I love how those inserts look.

    Maybe u have some cool Orioles inserts (or did Beardy get em?)

  9. Nope, Beardy didn't get 'em, though I'm sure he will get some someday. Ryan's memorabilia blog got quite a few though. Been quietly rebuilding the O's stash since. I got an Eddie Murray bat card in a lot of legends and Hall of Famer (... and Cliff Floyd) relics from eBay awhile back, amongst a few other things that have turned up in packs & stuff. There will also be three boxes throughout January (A Piece of History is due to arrive on the 4th I think, Threads has been ordered & payment sent, & the third one I dunno yet, leaning towards '09 Spectrum though) that might have something of interest to you in them as well.

    And I am definitely interested in the Museum Collection cards. I do loves me some Pinnacle. :D
