RAK Monday Adds
Every Monday on Twitter, I run a RAK Monday where you post up wants and others try to help you out. If you are chosen to be helped out, you must pass it on to someone else. Or just give and not take, that's always great too.
Usually the thread goes pretty well and I see a good amount of both. I also join in and receive as well as the administrator of the thread.
One of my last Monday's I got a solid haul from @dtgordo.Breakin' Wax:2021 Panini Prizm Draft Football Blaster Box
Finding football cards in retail outlets is like finding that onion ring in your Burger King fries order, it doesn't happen very often. But, it can.
Every 2021 Prizm Draft football blaster box only comes with 30 cards which is 6 packs of 5 cards. There are no hit guarantees and only thing you can find is a Purple Wave refractor which falls one-per-blaster. Blasters cost $20 per unless you buy from a flipper, then it's $40.

90's Cards Over Coffee:1997 Zenith Football Box Break
It's About Time
CARDBOARD REVIEW:2020 Topps U.S. Olympic&Paralympic
I will admit I am not much of an Olympic watcher, so bare with me on this one.
But, that doesn't mean I don't root on our country participating in the big games and it doesn't mean I don't collect the cardboard from it.
So seeing Topps release another product based on the Olympics was an easy grab. Just like it was in 2016, which by the way, some singles from that set (specifically Simone Biles) go for a decent amount. These cards are nothing to shake off.
Let's see how I did,
In every box of 2020 Topps U.S. Olympic&Paralympic comes with 24 packs of 8 cards per pack. Each box comes with 3 hits, one guaranteed autograph, and boxes run $120 or so.There are 76 cards overall in the base set with some athletes getting two cards. It appears early on that the Nyjah Huston base card is going for decent amount.
New To The Games is exactly what it says. There are 13 of these to collect in the set.
