It's been pretty hit or miss, when I've entered a box break. I've gotten some absolutely fantastic hits, but more often than not, I get stuck with a bunch of cards that I already have.
The only reason that I bought into the 2007 Bowman's Best break was for the chance at the random autos. I already have multiple copies of the Jim Thome card and the Josh Fields rookie card hasn't been beating a path to my door. The only option was the autos.
I received one autographed card and I think it was a pretty decent one.
I was holding off on purchasing a lot of 2009 Allen & Ginter because I was looking forward to this box break. I wasn't disappointed. I actually knocked out a good chunk of the White Sox base cards from the set. I managed to get a few cool oddball base cards, a Chicago American Giants base card and a few nice surprises.

I would have been extremely happy with that box break, but it didn't stop there. The next card pulled would put a smile on Albert Belle.

I'm one happy White Sox fan, thanks to Joe Collector's box break!!
That Bazooka Thome is awesome!!! I love it when the perfect card lands in the hands of someone who really appreciates it!
