HBP card list and box/case breakdowns

[Guest]

I'm not so sure that those were 10 individual boxes from different cases.  The breakdown is right in terms of the numbers of costumes, props, autos, and filmcards.  Shazhop, did the seller send the case topper with your order?

The Autos and film cell cards are the right number that you would get from 10 boxes from one case but i think i counted 3 props instead of 4 and 9 costumes instead of 8 so it does seem like 10 individual boxes.

Artbox has never had 100 percent perfect collation with any of its sets.  It's a major accomplishment that we haven't had one report of a dud box.

Hi all,

Thanks for the kind welcome.

I wasn't sure I was going to buy that amount to start with, so I bought 3 boxes, then 3 more, then caved in a week later and bought another 4.  So thats how I ended up with 10 individual boxes.  The company I use never advertises cases, only boxes, and as far as I know, they never give away the case card, only sells them - so I ended up buying one individually, but at least I knew which one I was then getting.  For all I know, they could been boxes from one case, or different cases that the company had, as they still have boxes even now for sale.

All of my boxes had 2 good pulls in them.  I had heard that some of the POA update (think it was that one?) that had lots of dud boxes going around.  The BHP seems to be much more evenly distributed.

LOL!!
Don't mention PoA Update to me please shazhop!.

That set will be the death of me

For all it's dud boxes i can't stay away from it. I think it has a supernatural hold over me!

Ah, your boxes definitely didn't come from the same case.  The repeats stink, but you did get a very nice break from those boxes.

I know the feeling about POAU. I have about 20 boxes. I don't know if I should open them or keep them sealed.

Exactly!. That's how i feel when i see one one come up on ebay. I tell myself " I won't buy this one..i've had too many dud boxes in the past and this one will proably be the same...i'll save my money ".
And then i end up telling myself "What if i leave it and then knowing my luck it will be a great box ".
So i end up buying it and then HEY PRESTO!! another dud box and i think to myself " Why did i buy it..i knew it would be like the others ". LOL!

Ok, we received the bulk of our boxes today (one more mm2 and one more HBP coming though)

We received 4 HBP boxes today, and I feel we did pretty well.

Box 1105/7000
BT1 - Draco
Puzzle Cards - 1, 3, 6, 8, and 9
CFC6 - Harry and Luna (Dumbledore in the cells) 150/314
Maggie Smith Redemption Auto


Box 1321/7000
BT1 - Draco
Puzzle Cards - 2, 4, 5, 6, and 7
C5 Gryffindor Students 152/630
P2 Advanced Potion Making Book Pages (Numbers on Swatch) 187/380


2464/7000
BT2 - Snape
Puzzle Cards - 1, 3, 5, 8, and 9
C7 Dumbledore Robe 448/500

2715/7000

So I think we did pretty well for four random boxes, the Smith auto is cool, as I ALMOST bought one the other night on ebay, but opted for Gambon and Bonham-Carter for the same money, good thing I went this route.  Im happy about the cool variants as well.  I'll be posting our MM2 case and box breaks shortly.  Also, we'll have a nice scanner soon as well, so I'll be able to show some of the neat stuff we've pulled.
