2013 Just Minors Mystery Gamers

[MarlinsFan1993]

As some of you may know this years Just Minors Mystery Gamers are now being shipped out and I have found two cases which have already been opened. I thought it would be nice to start a thread showing what has been opened to see what people who are buying this product are pulling from the cases. The product sells for $1,200 and comes with 2 pairs of GU batting gloves, 1 GU cap, 1 pair of GU cleats, and either a GU jersey or GU fielding glove (these are much more rare). Below is a copy of the product info and a list and pictures of what has been pulled thus far. I will try to update this thread as more people post their case breaks.

Im gonna have to check that out...like you said maybe pool together with someone and see what we get...1200 for a box is kinda pricey but i like the players listed as obtainable .

I miss the good old day of $50 for a box of cards.


But I have to admit, I did shelled out $100 a pack of NBA card a while back - got real lucky - a 1/125 Kobe Bryant autographed card.

Sold that sucker right away for $500 and never bought those expensive packs again!

I have always really liked this product and would love to open a case or two at some point but it's just too expensive for what you could possibly end up getting.

Most of the jerseys are probably ones that nobody really wanted on MLB Auctions. It's not worth the $1200 risk.

From what I can tell you should expect to find about $500-700 worth of stuff... in most cases. The thrill is worth something but that's a pretty steep price in the end.

I've done much better buying some of the past Billy Butler pulls than I think I would have done buying cases... Neat product, but like you I always got back to average value of about 750 or less, unless you hit one of the handful of really big items, say the Chipper Jones jersey or something.

Saw another case posted online produce:

Batting Gloves:
Michael Choice 2011 GU Signed
Adam Jones 2008 GU Signed

Cap:
Prince Fielder 2012 GU Stars and Stripes (worn on May 28, 2012)

Cleats:
Pablo Sandoval GU Circa 2010-2012

Jersey/ Fielding Glove:
Matt Dominguez 2007 GU Jamestown Jammers Home White

Also from looking on eBay noticed that someone pulled (from this years product):

Logan Morrison 2010 GU Cleats

Delmon Young 2012 GU Throwback Jersey Negro League Detroit Stars

B.J. Upton 2003 GU Charleston River Dogs Road Gray Jersey

I agree with many of the posts above. This seems to be a great product to open, but the money just seems to not be there for the majority of the breaks. Especially with some of the cases containing Minor League jerseys. I think it's indeed better to wait until the items are pulled and resold individually and then buy whichever one you like from a particular player. I am looking to see when Josh Johnson's jersey or fielding glove is listed for sale. His cleats were already pulled from a case and resold. Wouldn't mind a Hanley Ramirez jersey either depending on the year its from.
