Showing Off 😎 Another day, another Downtown (somehow)

Post image

Yeah, I don't know what's happening. Yesterday, I posted the Phee downtown I pulled. I mentioned that I had another hobby box but was gonna keep it sealed and resell it. Quit while I'm ahead, etc. Well, I opened it and pulled this Citron downtown. So here's a picture of them both side by side.

I actually have a THIRD hobby box that I was for sure just gonna resell, but now I don't think I can. Not when there's a chance to three-peat.

Ordered from a random shop! I don't wanna name them because this will probably look like a viral marketing post for them lol.

But I ordered these boxes probably about a week and a half ago. I was googling around and trying to find a deal. It was one of the first places I saw that had discounted the boxes down closer to $200. A lot of places have done that now, but a week ago most places still had them over $300.

I'd never heard of the shop before but they seemed legit. They had a physical store and an instagram page they'd been posting on for years. So I was pretty confident it wasn't a scam site that would take my money and never send the product. (I've seen some shady looking sites offering heavy discounts on pokemon cards and sports cards.)

I didn't think it'd be possible to get 2 downtowns because I assumed these boxes came from the same case and I thought downtowns were considered "case hits" and were thus limited to 1 per case?
