http://cgi.ebay.com/WACKY-PACKAGES-ANS-8-5-Sketch-Flash-Foil-HOT-PACK-GOLD-/320741675422?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item4aadb1919e5 bucks a pack for what i would think as containing only silver...Hmmmm.I do nothing with sports cards. In his listing he shows feedback for HOT packs he has sold in the past. Does anyone know how much "those" chase cards go for? Would this guy REALLY give away a HOT Sketch/Gold pack???
The thing is I don't think you can tell a gold from a silver through the wrapper. You just know it's a silver or a gold and the odds of it actually being a gold is a 1:1000
Lets play a little game, which one of these doesnt belong?http://cgi.ebay.com/WACKY-PACKAGES-OLD-SCHOOL-2-SKETCH-CARD-PLASTER-PEANUT-/220772021174?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item336709b3b6http://cgi.ebay.com/WACKY-PACKAGES-OLD-SCHOOL-2-SKETCH-CARD-GURGLE-LYNCH-/220772020230?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item336709b006http://cgi.ebay.com/WACKY-PACKAGES-OLD-SCHOOL-2-SKETCH-CARD-MISTER-FAULTY-/380333563986?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item588da5a052
Yea right..what's the probability that one of those packs has a GOLD...they are probably all SILVER $3-$5 each now..I noticed that know one that has bought these lots has given him ANY feedback...positive or negative...a little wierd..LET'S TAKE A TALLY: How many GOLDS have been found on the forum??1. I FOUND ONE - OPENED LESS THAN 4 BOXES..PLS FEEL FREE TO ADD...
YOU ARE CORRECT SIR!! SO ITS KINDA MISLEADING TO WRITE - GOLD? SKETCH? HOW DOES HE KNOW THAT A SKETCH WILL RESIDE WHERE A GOLD OR SILVER MIGHT BE - HAS THIS BEEN PROVEN?? CARDGARY MIGHT BE ABLE TO SHED SOME LIGHT ON THIS ONE? ANYONE PULL A SKETCH WHERE A GOLD OR SILVER MIGHT RESIDE..NEXT TO A TAG OR MAGENT??
I had one gold border in a case of 8 boxes.

Why are Target bonus boxes selling for nearly $40.00??Is someone trying to make this a ANS1 target box.I just saw two in my target yesterday. maybe I should go grab them...http://cgi.ebay.com/2011-WACKY-PACKAGES-ANS8-SEALED-BONUS-BOX-B4-MAXIUM-WOW-/380362395924?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item588f5d9114
I think they are somewhat tough to find but not nearly enough to justify that kind of price. Also, if you are looking at one of Clint's auctions you need to take the price with a grain of salt.
9046clint has 3 available for $39.97 with free shipping and cardgarys has 8 available at $39.97 with $5.95 shipping.
Well I just won the B4 bonus for $3.00 + shipping so it can't be too rare! I think it's a little bit of hype on the dealers part.
We all know 9046clint is NUTS, but Bi-Polar???http://www.ebay.com/itm/2011-TOPPS-WACKY-PACKAGES-SERIES-ANS8-SEALED-HOBBY-BOX-/220819242770?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item3369da3f12http://www.ebay.com/itm/2011-TOPPS-WACKY-PACKAGES-SERIES-ANS8-SEALED-RETAIL-BOX-/380357276420?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item588f0f7304
One is a hobby box and the other is a retail box. I don't know why they would be different prices though.
Are Hobby boxes worth more than Retail boxes?? for ANS8?? - and how about ANS7?? - the hobby box had a poster and the retail did not...is one hard to find than the other...anyone?? would think both are the same price...clint has ANS7 Hobby @ $49 and Retail @ $39 what's up with that??
He probably just wants to get rid of so many at the lower price and the others sell or keep or open up himself. I've seen this before with sellers listing the same item at a different price. It's either a mistake, a gimmick or just want to blow out some of the extra stock.
I think the fear is he might have found a sketch or gold in a case and then decided to sell the other boxes from that same case.
I wouldn't buy a box from him at either price for that very reason.
My target had 6 boxes. About a 10 days ago. I left them there. They are now gone.
My Target had 6 bonus boxes as well. My mom and I bought 2 to open together. I've got to get back there to see if the others sold yet, and to look for some more bonus blisters.
Is this theory iron clad? That if you pull a sketch from a case - the rest of the boxes DEFINATELY do not have a sketch?
Just look at the odds. It's highly unlikely.
Nonsense. Unless it is proven that the collation is such that each case only gets one Gold, your suggesting that a previous random event impacts a future event is nonsense. Are you the type who believes the odds of flipping a coin and getting heads immediately after flipping a coin and getting heads is less than 50/50?
