2011 Topps Target 1st Blaster Box Break 1-31-11

[Expofan3]

R u trading if so I need strasburg both his rookie cup and normal card

[BaseballBreaker]

can you fly through the base more quickly,

[krisbenham]

@BaseballBreaker -- No, they are just as much a part of the video as the inserts. That is the style that I have chosen to do my videos in, sort of a call-it-as-I-see-it, reporter-style box breaks.

[End0987612]

very smart! you save money just for cards im trying to do this and its working out pretty well so that way i dont have to worry about spending too much of the money i need for other things :)

[4293172]

Nice Job Cool Pulls. How much are those

[RobinsonRules19]

I bought a blaster box today and got 2 diamond dues, 2 diamond giveaway codes, and 3 diamond anniversary cards. I also got a 1950 phillies patch card.... Is that good or not really???

[ElClemeXX06]

you just pissed off one of your local pack searchers with that purchase lol

[krisbenham]

It doesn't freeze for me at 3:17.

[cartmen7]

it freezes at 3:17 

[BrianUFC1]

Can I have some of your yankee cards?

[Sportstrader717]

Holy shit 20 min for 3 packs!!! FML

[m16dude12]

that was stupid u probably got so many doubles

[krisbenham]

@m16dude12 -- Obviously, you aren't familiar with why I am doing card videos. Duplicate cards is fantastic for me, as I sell them on an individual level to more than one person. So, doubles means that more than one person can get that particular card from me. In addition to these Target boxes, I got a case of Jumbo HTA boxes. I have gotten over 4,000 cards from 2011 Topps Series 1. They are selling just fine.

[ryanomg1]

whats in the white pack

[legoboyfan300]

i have an investment in cards to but i dont buy in bulk i do it 1 by 1 daily i ha ve about 10,000 cards lots 1970 cards but i aloso only have 1 auto card so ill trade a rookie auto card for one of yours

[decpthatsme]

@MinnesotaTwinsPlaya So?

[MinnesotaTwinsPlaya]

@decpthatsme PEOPLE WOULD BE MAD CUZ WHAT IF OTHER PEOPLE WANT SOME

[jackscards77]

Does anybody know if the rack packs can be sent in for the 36 wrapper redemption???

[moirproductions]

Yes! I got my first couple of packs the other day. I had good luck with the inserts to, including a Pee Wee Reese mini, and a Lou Gehrig caramel card. How much does a blaster box cost, by the way?

[krisbenham]

@moirproductions -- Blasters are usually around $20 for regular cards, and $10 for Opening Day, or Attax.

[tmlproductions]

i dont get pretty lucky in those, but still there cool. I got mine at target too.

[LordHillsidor]

~ I just wanted to say that I'm sorry your Step-Father passed due to the carelessness of a stupid drunken driver. I hope that you & your family can somehow, someday be at peace from the chaos I'm sure this had to have caused. May he rest in peace. It also hits close to home for me because I've had two friends murdered the same way. TO ALL HUMAN BEINGS: PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE DO NOT DRIVE WHILE INTOXICATED!!! IT RUINS LIVES, INCLUDING YOUR OWN DUE TO THE GUILT YOU HAVE TO CARRY THROUGH LIFE!!!

[krisbenham]

@LordHillsidor -- Very well said. Thank you.

[LordHillsidor]

@krisbenham ~ No problem, thank you. I just felt like it needed to be said, now lets just hope that people read it & abide by it. Also, do you ever do any trades on your sports cards? If so, please send me a private message on here detailing how you like to do it & what your interests are. Thanks.

[GreenMonsterMania2]

The topps 60 is like Peak Performance from last year.

[thebaseballfan27]

what town r u in cause it sounds like u have a great target?

[spendarthegreat]

Wow, thats some pretty good stuff for retail packs. Are the odds for getting special cards higher or the same as hobby packs?

[ChairmanOftheBoard16]

lol I didnt know you could buy the gravity boxes

[krisbenham]

@ChairmanOftheBoard16 -- I am sure that they don't intend on people doing that, but I don't care. I need the box to carry them in safely. If I am willing to pay almost $200 for that box, I can have the box, too!! LOL!!! They need to keep more cards in stock with a brand new release at the beginning of the year. That is Target's fault.

[ChairmanOftheBoard16]

@krisbenham ok. I just wasnt sure because I've cleaned out boxes of Bowman but I didnt think we could take the boxes too. thanks for making excellent and informative vids. Keep up the good work.

[SupInBaseballToday]

are there still 12 in retail in 8 cards in blasters? and how much are retail and blaster? Thanks

[krisbenham]

@SupInBaseballToday -- Yes, 12 and 8 are the same, and they are still $19.99, but the 3 that I got rang up at $17.99. I am sure that won't last long.

[SuperUrocks]

I wonder why you didnt get any gold cards in the box

[krisbenham]

@17petrmaso -- I will take cold over hot any day.

[krisbenham]

@coldorangefries -- The blue foil are not Attax, they are Ticket To Topps Town.

[Cowboylikeme]

I hear ya on the Texas Weather.... Being from the Dallas Area I know what your talking about..... 120 is the avg in summer here too.

[38JG]

What the difference between throwback are normall? Keep up the good videos

[krisbenham]

@38JG -- Throwback anything is a tribute to something from the past, i.e. "Lets throw it back to 1989..." With the 2 packs of Target Throwback cards, they are paying tribute to the style of card stock used before 1992. With the Throwback Patch Cards in Blasters, the patch logo on the card is a tribute to logos from the past, combined with a photo of a player from today.

[hudsonharden]

Kris you are a great man and I love your vids, but the ENTIRE gravity box? The first day!? You are a pack breaking machine.

[Im2xteme]

Just bought 15 packs and 2 wall hangers after my shift at Wal-Mart. Very cool cards this year, i thought it was cool, in my first three packs i got a Base card of Strasburg, the All Star Rookie of him, and the Champions of the games and sports mini of him. Loving these cards this year.

[Im2xteme]

@Im2xteme Also got a diamond card version of Buster Posey, and i think a Jimmie Foxx SP, but dont know cause his card number is 315 but out off all the cards i got there wasnt another 315, so i dont know if its SP or just a base.

[krisbenham]

@Im2xteme -- If the Jimmie Foxx is number 315, then it is an SP for sure. Retired players don't get a regular base card, only SP's.

[thefoolman24]

they shouldnt have done cards your mom threw out lat year. It just make the 60 yrs of topps look like a lazy copy but its much more appropriate this year

[nblackford1412]

2011 Topps look great! Love the diamond parrlell, I wonder if they will replace the gold cards? Just a small tip get a chair that dosn't squeek LOL.

[krisbenham]

@nblackford1412 -- Not the chair, it is the NEW plastic top table that I am leaning on repeatedly. It is annoying, but also cost $45, so it isn't just a drop in the bucket to replace it.

[Cardsyouknowme97]

Dude they arnt out yet where i live thats bogus it said its comming feburary 16th said in Beckett cant believe you got it!!!!!

[perria65]

hey kris are there any case hits in the 2011 hta boxes?

[krisbenham]

@perria65 -- I have no idea right now. I haven't gotten my case yet.

[perria65]

@krisbenham i was just wondering.i didnt know if u checked up on it

[krisbenham]

@perria65 -- I knew I had a case coming, so I wanted it to be a surprise for all of us on video instead of trying to find out before hand. It feels like cheating when I research beforehand. I also know that the product spec sheets can be wildly different from what is actually in the packs, so I don't want to be confused when I open them.

[TheWilsonFive]

same weather here with me

[TheToppsMan]

topps 60 is the equivalent of peak performance

[TheToppsMan]

kc = kimball champions

[krisbenham]

@cardking091981 -- I agree, but lets watch the potty mouth. There are many kids watching these videos, and I don't want my channel to be a part of their problems with disrespecting people later in their lives.

[2010golakers]

lucky

[UnitedSnipingTacs]

BUY A HOBBY BOX NOT RETAIL

[krisbenham]

@UnitedSnipingTacs -- My Jumbo HTA Boxes are still on the way, but I agree that Hobby packs are better than retail. This is only because they came out early at Target, and it gives me a jump on singles.

[UnitedSnipingTacs]

WASTE OF MONEY

[MegaMagicman101]

@UnitedSnipingTacs dude it is kris money plus he has his own website and sells singles os he makes decent money on these singles and stuff so leave him alone

[bradxsebastian2]

How much was that gravity box?

[krisbenham]

@bradxsebastian2 -- A lot. 1.99 x 96 packs, plus 8.25% Texas Sales tax.

[bradxsebastian2]

What is your website?

[krisbenham]

@bradxsebastian2 -- benhambaseballcards It is every video, and there is a link on my channel page to help people find it easily.

[THEALLSTARMLB2009]

All I can say is well I can't I'm speachless

[antczak5]

yea i love that you found it
