Many of you participated in the ’54 Topps group break on net54 last month, while many of you wanted to participate but didn’t get in before the break was sold out. I was lucky enough to win the Aaron RC myself.

I enjoyed the experience so much that I decided to do a set break on my website: www.burlssports.com

This break is of a '54T set that is in slightly worse condition (about Good overall), and the price point is therefore slightly lower. $9 per slot, $3 shipping. (Additional slots are $9 each.) A complete set of scans is available on my listing: http://burlssports.com/product/1954-topps-complete-set-group-break/

Rules for this break are as follows:

1. Payments are to be made via PayPal, check, or money order once the break is completely full. Payment is due within one week after break is completely full. If payment is not received, your slots will be surrendered and resold. (Add the item to your card, choose checkout, and check payment if you want to wait and pay once the group break is full. You can still send payment via PayPal at a later date. You slot is not reserved until you click “Place Order”)

2. Each purchase is for one slot in the set break. You are guaranteed to receive a card from the 1954 Topps set for each slot you have.

3. The random drawing will be done live via online video (info to come) and recorded for those who won’t be able to watch it live.

4. Until Friday (10/17) at 9 PM CST, anyone may reserve a maximum of 1 spot (one purchase).

Once that time is up, you can reserve as many spots as you would like. (All slots will be assigned at random.)

5. Once you purchase a slot on the listing, you agree to pay for the spot reserved.

Interested? Check out the full listing, along with rules and a full explanation here: http://burlssports.com/product/1954-topps-complete-set-group-break/

This is a neat idea. I'm in for one slot. Thanks a bunch!

EDITED: Heck, I went crazy and bought TWO slots. Now my odds are 1:125! :-)

Thanks to everyone who has purchased so far! Only 87 slots left! Lots of people have added slots to their cart but not "checked out." Make sure to check out, even if you want to wait and pay when the break is full--that way your slots are reserved. At this pace, all slots should be sold out by the weekend. Thanks!

Got 2 commons and Richie Ashburn. Not bad at all

4 commons and Teddy Williams #250...not too shabby! Partially makes up for having been shut out in the inaugural Net54 set break!

Almost got that Williams at the end but got #249 instead. Two commons altogether. Fun nonetheless.
