    Congrats to the other winners! I opted for some MagPro cases of various sizes to get an idea of what size to order in the future for the cards I want to put in these kind of cases.

    I overordered the thick ones (but even the biggest wasn’t big enough for the one card I can’t find the right size case for). But since I’ve gotten into patch/swatch cards which are natually thick I’m sure I’ll end up with cards to fit at least some of them.

    Here are some of the cards in the new MagPro cases. I really like the look with the team labels! Plus the cases are great quality!

    I got two blasters and was very surprised to get an auto in each box! I’ve never had that happen before. And each had good variants/parallels

    My engagement prize for April arrived yesterday. Thanks SO much!! Looking forward to trying out the differnt size MagPros with my different thickness cards. Will share some pics when I’ve got them loaded up and looking good. I’m a big fan of the look of the MagPro cases!

    Thanks too for this site! It’s fun to learn more about collecting cards. I’ve learned a lot in the couple of months I’ve been on here. And the site encourages me to keep track of what I have coming in—and to organize my collection better. Plus I really like seeing what others collect. There’s such a variety of possibilities out there.

    Thanks for sharing a variety. I like seeing things very different from what I have.

    This is a cool card. What do the backs of those look like?

    I think it’s especially fun to get cards in the mail during playoff time when you’re totally into that sport right then. I’m rooting for your Spurs to take it all

    Second box. I’m not sure if I ever got an auto in a blaster before. Well today was for sure a record for me because I ripped two Bowman blasters and got TWO autos!! One in each box.

    The red Yanquiel Fernández is a fun redemption card IF he were to win Rookie of the Year. And I’m happy to get a 1st Bowman Chrome of a Braves prospect

    It makes sense to me that a swatch of fabric requires a thicker card. Especially the older uniform fabric which could be pretty thick. Or a piece of the logo. The past couple of years the players started wearing thinner uniform materials. I’m not sure if the cards are now thinner too. I think they might be.

    But cards like the Inception set are always thick cards. I’m gradually learning the sets. For the longest time I had no idea of the thickness of the card I ordered. I was surprised when the first thick ones arrived lol

    As you can tell I was a big fan of the Brooklyn set design and got Strider, Harris, and Olson autos with that design from that year.

    On the Zion page with the MagPro case category. The labels are some of the last ones. You can also order custom labels. I’m pondering that for my non-Braves cards

    Y’all are both right! It’s hard choosing which cards to put in the MagPros!

    I felt like I was pretty lucky with these two blasters. I hope you get an auto or numbered or both in your basektball ones that are on the way! It’s fun to rip, isn’t it? I always get something I’m happy to have, and today’s rips had more cards I’m happy with than maybe any other day I’ve had since I started collecting a few years ago.

    I do buy into breaks now and then. And try the random ones as well. It’s definitely gambling. The now-and-then wins keep me coming back. I had beginner’s luck with the first break I bought into and got the case hit with a Deion Sanders Braves colorblast. I didn’t even realize colorblasts were a big deal! lol
