Ryan 1/1 Logo Pulled On Blowout Forums

I am sorry for the long string of Exquisite posts, but damn, this was a nice fucking pull by a guy who posts on the blowout forums. Of the big rookies, this one was the biggest, and I am glad that it went to a regular guy who buys his boxes from a shop, rather than a big corporation or hobby big wig.

Also, it looks much better than the Patch Auto because of the pic change and the design for the logos. For getting rid of the Rare Materials 1/1s and making them /10 and /35, UD did an awesome job with these 1/1 logos.

    Ok, now THAT is nice. Golf claps for Upper Deck. Good to see it go to a collector.

    I also really like the halo effect around the pic, it makes this card really stand out. I thought it was going to be tough to beat the SPA 1/1, but this is much better. Plus, when you add all the stars and vets into it, this set is killer.

    And you were just posting about Beckett pulling the Ryan 1/1 on the FCB.

    If you wanted to buy a case of Exquisite would you rather buy the full case or buy 3 boxes independently(assuming it would cost the same either way)?

    I was thinking about it and thought maybe you would increase your chances of scoring better hits by buying independent boxes from different sources. What say ye?

    Are there no rare materials signature 1/1s this year?

    If you are going to pay for 3 boxes, you might as well get a sealed case as you are most likely going to get a case hit (some cases are shorted I suppose). If you purchase them independent of each other, each box has a 33% chance of getting a case hit. Your odds are only that good if you get these boxes from sealed cases and its not a left over box after the case hit has been pulled.

    The scenario is different if you were going to get 4 boxes. Two from two different cases you have a 66% chance of pulling a case hit from each set of two boxes. You have a 44% chance of getting one in both.

    Remember, the odds are independent of each other if they come from seperate cases.
