What's Buzz-worthy: One from the bargain bin that I didn't rip much of last year, Gallery is probably best tasted with the bigger box (link up top) that gets you more volume of everything and then two autos guaranteed. That's your best bet at landing more cardboard of substance. This one? It's lean for sure -- and not that fun -- but there are still good RCs to b found and plenty more ... just not as much in this format. You can expect the Proofs and foils here but that's about it ... so if you land a better name in one of those spots there's a chance at something. If not, tough sledding. Even the Jeter Proof isn't all that pricey here but this was a bargain-bin box so it's not of rough of a break vs. the original SRP or even with the one chain's even higher mark-up price. It's worth the look as a collector as it's crisp and clean with some chase cards like the super-rare stuff like that Mona Lisa card out there ... check eBay.

Product Grade: A- (departs from artwork for a second year in row)
Box Grade: B (slightly dull but two Jeter appearances made this bargain-bin box above average ... but not great)
Fun Grade: B
