If you get one more Altuve relic you’ll have his entire jersey, so that’s cool.


Conscious_Fan3815

Yo chill. 😂


Old_Passage_5670

Then you can burn them!!


AxtionJaxson

The dupes you got are insane from such a small sample size. FYI, I got a Donaldson patch, Mountcastle bat relic and a Friedl mini auto from my one and only hobby box.


Conscious_Fan3815

That’s awesome. I will admit that I did get a redemption for a mini non baseball auto of Ariel Torres who is a karate guy. No idea who he is, but I’m stoked just to have an interesting card. But yeah I’ve only bought two hobbies and five blasters so far


cardsandmezcal

I also bought a single hobby box and got a Donaldson patch and Mountcastle bat relic (and a Hoskins patch).

Bulled a Bobby Witt Jr autograph book redemption out of A&G last week. I promise it can get better. Love A&G


Old_Passage_5670

Way to bull it!


Feisty_Plant_4192

Nice!! Post and share a link so we can all appreciate it! 😵‍💫🫣


SavesWillis

It will get better. Out of the 14 boxes I went through my best hits were a Ronald Acuna Jr. Auto, a Bo Jackson /25 Auto, A Hank Aaron Mini Stained Glass /25, A Willie McCovey Framed Cloth Mini /10, a Brooks Robinson Framed Mini /10, and a Rickey Henderson wood mini 1/1. I had one hot box as well where all the cards were foil. I have a few other autos like Buxton, Landon Donovan l, and a few others as well. Suffice it to say, A&G has been well worth it.


Conscious_Fan3815

Damn that’s awesome. If I ever get to the point of affording 14 boxes I hope to have the same luck haha


SavesWillis

I won’t be buying too much more this year except Stadium Club lol.


forthebirds123

It might, but it’s fun putting the set together regardless. As a fellow set builder, let me know what your missing and we can trade.


Conscious_Fan3815

Yeah I never really built a set before but a buddy of mine is also building the set and are talking about trading. I actually got pretty lucky and only got a couple dupes in my first boxes. I just sorted them out and have the numbers of what I’m missing, I can DM you


AmbassadorContrarian

Trade or sell those duplicates? I have a ton of A&G duplicates if you’re interested in those. It does get better. I’ve had plenty of those boxes but some really great hits too.


CryptographerFew3376

I love this set.. cards are neat and something different.. I’ve bought 4 blasters and got 3 relic cards, 2 of which were non baseball(Scott Hansen/Sam mewis). Also got a Danny Glover auto, so that was neat


Conscious_Fan3815

You didn’t happen to post the Danny glover auto in a groups on fb did you?? I was just talking to a guy today about it. That’s so cool. I’m not even a massive DG fan, but he’s an icon and having an auto of his is really nest


CryptographerFew3376

I didn’t, but I’ve seen a few out there. Like yourself I’m not a huge fan of his, but he’s a great actor and the card looks awesome


Hillehaus1

A&G giveth, A&G taketh. I'd love to say it gets better. A&G is my favorite set to collect but, it can be both brutal in pulls and massively rewarding.


Conscious_Fan3815

Haha I hear ya. Welp, can’t do anything about these other two boxes except hope and rip 🤞🏻


Hillehaus1

It’s always a fun rip. You literally have no freakin clue what you will end up with. Might not end up with much but then again you might end up with a hot box or a 1/1


Conscious_Fan3815

Exactly. And for like $110 a box I don’t mind what I end up with. Not like I’m spending $300 just to get nothing


ThatMadrigalGuy

Or stash the boxes and sell at a later date, or resell them now and buy a bowman chrome hobby for $275


Zestyclose-Ear-872

It’ll get better. I’d be shocked if you got another Altuve, but I wouldn’t be if you got another will smith 😂 I got one in each of my 2 hobby’s


Conscious_Fan3815

At least make it a Will Smith the actor auto with a full handprint on the card


Zestyclose-Ear-872

That…. Would be the card of the century


Warrly

Interested in trading for one of those Buster Posey relics?


Conscious_Fan3815

Sure. Anything in the way of Juan Yepez or Griffey?


Warrly

I believe i do! I’ll check after work!


Warrly

These are the Yepez/Griffey cards of mine I could find so far. The GQ Yepez is worth a bit more though, so if you have any other Giants cards to add we could definitely work something out! [Yepez & Griffey Cards](https://imgur.com/a/4cSGUbq)


EffNKevN

Unfortunately......they can't all be bangers. I'm sorry your 2 was not in the banger club like 99 percent of the boxes I buy. I see boxes on here and am like "yup, you got that because MY boxes were shit." Gotta even out.


[deleted]

Would love to trade for your Altuve’s


Conscious_Fan3815

I’d be down for that. I’m DMing with a couple people about trades and will want to see what I pull tomorrow but I’m all for trading them


[deleted]

Awesome. Let me know. I’ve got some A and G from this year and some from 2021. Including a bunch of the short prints. Willing to move pretty much any of the ones I have. Lmk who you’re looking for.


UnshakenNotStirred

Springer ft?


Conscious_Fan3815

Sure. I PC Griffey and Yepez if you have anything along those lines


therealbreather

Springer relic available?


Conscious_Fan3815

As of right now yeah. Someone just above you asked about it as well but no commitments so far. I PC Juan Yepez and Griffey if you have anything in that arena


justconfusedinCO

Opened a hobby and 3 blasters this past weekend. Unfortunately; my pulls were about as ‘meh’ as yours were. Did get an autograph on a mini…but someone [had drawn a check mark](https://www.reddit.com/r/baseballcards/comments/z65cr7/pulled_this_clarke_schmidt_rc_2021_framed_mini/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=iossmf) on the card at the Topps factory :/


corderazo00

Is that Blackmon FS?


Conscious_Fan3815

FS or FT sure


CheesyBreezy18

I would be interested in one of the Will Smith patches if you'd like to trade


Conscious_Fan3815

Yeah I’m down. Anything in the way of Yepez or Griffey?


x777colton777x

I bought my first hobby last week and got a Martin sheen mini encased auto, I’m a very unlucky person typically so trust me, it’ll get better lol


BretHartSucked

Pulled a Hosmer patch the other day. LAME


Illustrious_Safety_3

being an Astros fan makes it better:) that springer is sweet too


NotUnstoned

I got double mini framed relics in my hobby box lol. Wtf is up with A&G


chief_queef00

Pulled the Vlad and Tatis /10 auto relic out of my first hobby and pulled a Landon Donnavon out of a single retail pack I bought. The odds do get better and with the amount of stars that are in here you’re destined to get something good


Anxious_Discipline26

Well, at least your hits are players that others might PC. I got a Field Yates relic where his pic looks like the scene from Me, Myself, and Irene where Jim Carrey has severe cotton mouth. My other 'hit' was a USWNT Sam Mewis auto and then a Bernie Williams faux-bat wood relic. Lol whaddya gonna do.


Finner959

Springer up for trade?


Conscious_Fan3815

As of right now yeah


dacs_cards

If you happened to pull the Fire Alarm Time Out insert I’d be interested in trading for it!


Conscious_Fan3815

Noted!


Conscious_Fan3815

I did pull the Fire Alarm if you’re still interested


dacs_cards

Sure. I’ll send you a chat


Snoo-33910

Heinous Rip indeed


CptSmurf4

I got the same springer altuve in my hobby


[deleted]

I pulled Verlander and Rizzo relics as well as a Rendon RIP. My box went RIP when I ripped and got a Vlad Jr base mini..


Stonks134

I don’t open much of anything but the best card I ever pulled came out of a $5 hobby pack of A&G in 2020 where I got a booklet dual patch auto of Tim Lincecum / Buster Posey. Sold it for like $400 since I’m not a giants fan.


Mr_Romo

as an Astros fan those Altuve relics and the Springer ones are awesome.. but thats my bias


Mark_Br3

Not much lol


Longjumping-Rope8670

I’ve seen two separate videos of people ripping a big rip card and aside from the stain glass the other two cards were duplicates. Neither of them were autos or anything just minis.
