Here are the highlights from my final two Gypsy Queen retail rack packs. I made out pretty well with my Framed Green parallels:
Here are a few highlights from the base set, starting off with a couple of Red Sox currently on the DL...
...three Hall-of-Famers...
...and a couple of short prints:
I got quite a few more inserts that I needed, including these few:
The minis were pretty boring to be quite honest, but there were two of note. Dustin Pedroia...
...and my first Sepia:
Oh yeah, I also pulled this in the very last rack pack:
Well that wraps it up. It was fun while it lasted but now Gypsy Queen retail is nowhere to be found. I'm left with just over 100 cards from the base set, a good chunk of minis, and a decent stack of inserts and parallels. If I want to keep ripping I seem to have only one choice...hobby. Ugh.

When it comes to blogging... my timing is terrible. I'll see things on ESPN
or on other blogs that inspire a post, but I don't have scans ready to go.

When I was out of town last week, I saw a full box of Gypsy Queen packs. I couldn't believe it, because GQ disappeared from my town a long time ago.
Topps really screwed set-collectors with GQ. How long was it on the shelves in most places, 2 months?
that's funny, the only GQ my hobby shop has is retail packs at $6 a pop. There is no hobby packs to be found.
I ain't paying $6 a pack to just look for Braves though...
