One Box 2013 Topps Tribute -- I HIT THE BEST CARD IN THE PRODUCT!!!

[brado8236]

Stopped by my LCS (Legacy Sports Cards in Las Vegas) to bust a little hockey and decided to bust one of the two boxes of 2013 Topps Tribute they had left.

It was one of the best decisions I've ever made in my collecting career.

Here's the little stuff:

Matt Holliday green parallel /75
Adrian Gonzalez blue parallel /99
Joey Votto jersey /99
Johnny Bench dual bat /99
Clayton Kershaw auto /99
Brett Lawrie auto /50
Jordan Zimmerman auto /35

The second pack was much thicker than the other five and when I opened it, I saw there was a very thick card inside. I put the pack aside to reveal last...

Ted Williams Bat Knob 1/1!!!! :dance: :whatthehell: :dance: :whatthehell: :dance:

This is what it's all about, folks. Just an AMAZING pull, a real piece of history, and an absolutely beautiful card! I could not believe it when I pulled this card, and coming on the heels of my Valor Andrew Luck 1/1, my Kyrie Irving Select gold prizm 6/10, and my amazing National Treasures and Five Star football breaks, the Legacy Luck has been awesome to me lately!

All the small cards are already gone and the Williams is FS only, serious offers only please. Thanks for the read and, as always, comments are welcome! :beer:

How much do these go for? For whatever reason I thought this was low end so when the shop owner said he had a box, I passed. Should have bought it over a box of Topps Valor. If he has a box, might pick it up after I get back from my holiday. The card you pulled, is it actually the best card in the set or are you just saying that? If it's the best, should box price drop or since there will be other big hits, price will stay the same?

The product is selling for about $250/box right now, but I'd imagine the price to drop a bit now that this card is out. I'm not exaggerating when I say this is the best card in the product, Williams bat cards are rare to begin with and the bat knob is the best part of the bat.

For comparison, the unlicensed National Treasures Williams bat knob recently sold for $4800 before being listed at auction again. My card is not only licensed, it's a far better piece, so I'd imagine it's worth a bit more.

There are other sweet cards to be had in this product (the Hank Aaron bat barrel comes to mind, along with several other lesser bat knobs) but I don't know what else has come out. I don't break baseball much, this box was done on a whim.

Hope that answers a few of your questions. :beer:

Yes it does. When I come back, if there's no new hockey or it's all sold out then I will try the box of tribute if he still has it.

thanks
