This is a bunch of brown boxes.
There are 48 showing in this photo, but I assure you that I was told by someone who knows boxes that there are more of these same type of boxes behind the currently visible boxes.
The person did not elaborate much about the boxes, so going on that information alone, I would guess there are at least more than 50 boxes. If I was a gambling man, which on occasion I am, I would say there are, at minimum 52 or more boxes.
If I wanted to be really crazy (and obviously I don’t), I would go out on a limb and say there are at least…56 boxes.
Ooops! Sorry to shake your mind up with that last bit of wild speculation on my part. Let’s just take it slow and say there are roughly 50 boxes, and potentially even more boxes than that! Any possible number of boxes over our safely assumed 50 boxes would be a nice surprise.
Everyone likes surprises…right?

Is it the new Beckett web site? Where’s Monty Hall? :)
Comment by JRJ @ SportsLocker July 22, 2008 @ 7:46 pmYou guys are better than other people think.
I am not sure what is goin on here though. This is strange strange strange.
Why dont you guys sure that SCU website? They make card collectors look like jackasses. I bet you could sue them, they are jerks to you. In addition they make fun of people who get cards on ebay and who like cards like refractors and exquisite stuff.
All of those companies have lots of money, so get with them and do the hobby a favor and get rid of people who are just jerks.
Comment by Azzfilter July 22, 2008 @ 11:00 pmLooks like boxes containing slabs for BGS/BVG, or the new issue of Beckett.

You are complaining about SCU and you have the name Azzfilter? Jesus.
First off, SCU is one of the best blogs there is. You dont like it because you are one of the people who they make fun of on a daily basis.
Secondly, you think Beckett is great because they give stuff away? Im glad thats all that matters to you, its a real strict policy decision. Azzfilter’s “No support unless you give away tons of swag” policy.
Next up, Azzfilter’s favorite team is the Kansas City Royals because they gave a free t-shirt to kids under 12. He wears it proudly.
Comment by Azzfilter???? July 23, 2008 @ 2:16 pm@Afilter – Thanks for the compliments and all, but I am not sure Beckett is in the business of suing someone we’ve never heard of.
Comment by ejahnke July 23, 2008 @ 5:07 pmWhen did I say I like things given to me free? You made up a lie right there, I guess that is real strict policy decision
Whoeveryouare’s “Can not win without lying” policy. That always goes ovwr well with the miserable people.
I dont care if I am one of the people SCU makes fun of. They are bitter and filled with hate, and they cuss too much. Lots of thier readers are sad people too
I know they wont cop to it, but inside they wonder why people only like them on the website, but not in real life.
Miserey loves company!
Comment by Azzfilter July 23, 2008 @ 9:19 pmBased on box size, shape, and apparent weight ( it requires runner assists), and the fact you have 100 boxes of them— my guess is its the new Beckett Almanac of Baseball Cards and Collectibles No. 13, 2008 Edition .
But thats just my educated guess. Probably wrong but I like guessing,,,,,,,,
