I like the silver and gold, except a lot are miscut. They remind me of ud collectors choice from the mid 90's. Also there are a lot of cards with minor dings, but overall, pretty good.

and seems there is still some collation problems
Mitchell Starc signature redemption.
Im not complaining though, as I only really wanted 3 cards, in order of priorty, Perry, Starc and Smith Signatures. Just glad I didn't get a case with two James Faulkners.
Now I'm left with a dilemma. I have 8 boxes that probably only have 1 medal winner in them. I'm not scummy enough to put them on ebay, and try to con someone with a chance of a sig. I think i'll check how close to the gold and silver sets I am first, but I may sell them at discounted prices.
There are 12 different Superstars & 12 different Young Stars. In a case of 14 boxes you should expect to get 7 DIFFERENT young stars & 7 DIFFERENT Superstars. In Case one you got one extra Superstar & one extra young star, however only 6 different cards in total - 3 young stars & 3 superstars - from 14 boxes. One young star you had 4 of the same!
Looking at breaks from case 2 - you already have the same young star three times in first three boxes. I thought they had fixed the duplications?
I know you said you are happy with two sig redemptions the same, however most people would be really annoyed at getting a case where the two major hits are the same ones even though there are six different ones on offer.
Im only happy, because they were my main target cards, and im not a master set collector. If I was, id probably be fuming. It isn't good enough though.
OK, everything is sorted now. Very impressed on the golds. In 2 cases I got only 1 double, and only need 14 for the set. here are the stats
Golds 166/180
silvers- 1 complete set and 15 short of a second
2 complete Best of the Bash sets
2 complete Memorable moments sets
superstars 6/12 with heaps of doubles
young stars 5/12 with heaps of doubles
happy to trade to complete some sets. I've started a sell thread for the complete sets to try and get back a bit of the cost.
