Soccer is a sport that many collectors probably overlook because it’s not the traditional America-based pastime, but Panini America’s recently released 2015 Panini Select set shows there are a few reasons that they should pay attention.
A few thousand (dollar) reasons.
When the next Panini America soccer product arrives in January, it will bring all the international flair and fervor of The Beautiful Game, but it will take things up a notch in spots compared to its predecessor without a dramatic high-end hike in price.
The brand is 2015 Panini Select and it’s set to arrive on Jan. 6 packing three autographs or memorabilia cards per box along with a selection of inserts and parallels. The previously released 2015 Donruss soccer boxes had just one autograph per box, while Select will include the first memorabilia cards made by the company for its international soccer releases.
Given the size of the box for 2015 Leaf Memorabilia Vault, we should all know that — literally — big things are possible when we see the seal broken and the items start to emerge.
On Thursday morning, more than one box of this all-memorabilia product packing 10 items inside was busted via BlowoutTV with the buyer getting their drafted choice of item for $100.
What would you choose from a case? Keep reading and you can see the 10 items that were found inside. You make the call on what you might take — let us know in a comment.
