2008 Topps Heritage Box Break

OK, it's been a busy night. Opening and sorting everything was hectic. Plus, slightly altering the contest from its original intention at the last minute was mind numbing. I originally was going to give away the majority of the cards, but two things happened. I only found two White Sox cards and I really fell in love with this set!

I did not get any doubles in the box, so that threw me a little as well. So, I decided to give away the non-White Sox premiums from the box. Basically, everything that wasn't the basic set, basic variations and basic subsets. And no, I didn't get any White Sox premiums.

Yeah, I don't make things easy on myself. I know. I need help. I've already had a "name your price" e-mail for the buyback, but that was set aside for the contest and claimed as the first card taken in the Heritage Contests.

OK, so here's the breakdown of the box. The White Sox cards are in red.

Regular Set
1, 2, 3, 4, 12, 15, 16, 17, 24, 29, 36, 38, 39, 40, 41, 48, 52, 53, 64, 66, 67, 68, 73, 74, 88, 92, 95, 96, 98, 100, 103, 104, 110, 112, 113, 118, 125, 136, 139, 143, 144, 149, 152, 153, 155, 156, 157, 158, 162, 163, 165, 166, 167, 175, 180, 184, 190, 193, 194, 200, 201, 203, 206, 207, 208, 209, 212, 216, 218, 219, 222, 223, 224, 230, 233, 235, 241, 245, 246, 247, 249, 250, 251, 253, 256, 257, 258, 259, 262, 269, 272, 273, 274, 275, 276, 277, 280, 289, 292, 294, 301, 305, 306, 309, 311, 312, 314, 318, 319, 322, 335, 336, 339, 344, 353, 355, 358, 359, 362, 365, 366, 367, 368, 374, 376, 378, 379, 385, 388, 391, 394, 396, 397, 400, 401, 403, 405, 411, 412, 413, 417, 418, 421, 424, 440, 447, 455, 465, 466, 467, 478, 483, 485, 499

Overall, this was a pretty good box. Someone has put some bad mojo on me. I got a newly acquired player who is now injured and a player who looks like a fat teddy bear and is fighting for a position as my two White Sox players.

I seem to have gotten a butt-load of almost every other team though. I haven't tallied these into teams, since I decided to do the unthinkable and collect the whole damn thing. Plus, a separate White Sox team set. Yes, I am a glutton for punishment. And... loving it.
