its a pretty average product, expect to pull sweet FA if you do buy it. the price is decent, but your better off saving a few extra bucks and buy a good mid price box.

pro sigs if hobby box will get u 1 auto per box. its a low-end product so i suggest just keeping ur cash for some singles or try to see if u can get a better box for that cash.

 

[axeman23]

Yeah, I agree... It's low cost/low reward product, if you ask me... I'd be more tempted to add a few dollars and go after something else, either singles of stuff u like, or a better box. Just my 2c...

 

[mattyj]

im not sure why but i dont like buying singles...prefer boxes...plus with the wife collecting now too she likes opening boxes like me...

any suggestions of a nice product to look for??

 

[wade7]

Its a nice product, fun to break. Think I got mine last time for $51 deliviered. I'll say its a decent and fun to break for around $50-60. For 70, I would save a bit more and buy something nicer, a higher end product.

the other one i liked (because i like the look of the common cards and im a set collector as well as player collector) was 04/05 Fleer Tradition for $60

id buy a box of 04/05 skybox LE and a 04/05 throwbacks, or a box reflections for a bit more cash. sweet shot is nice too.

 

[mattyj]

where do you guys buy your boxes from??? ebay? stores in aus? the states?

so far ive bought in the passed few months 3 from america and 1 off ebay..

where the best place to get them??

3 main US online stores:

http://www.dacardworld.com/default.das
http://www.ocsportscards.com/servlet/StoreFront
http://sccentral.com/index.html

or sonny (sasquach) or justadabestcards can do you a decent deal on boxes.

 

[clarkescards]

Fleer Tradition you should really only pay $40 for, not $60. You only get 1GU in the box, get a full set (and lots of duplicates) and maybe some inserts. 36 packs though (in Hobby), if you like busting lots of packs.

 

[WoobieZarz]

Yep, what they said.

Nothing much in those boxes, you're probably better off buying the card from that box that you want.

Or get another box of something else.

id buy a box of 04/05 skybox LE and a 04/05 throwbacks

I'll be busting a box of each this weekend when my brother comes to visit. It'll be my 3rd box of Throwbacks and my first LE. Fun fun fun..

 

[Shihad]

Yeah pretty much what everyone else has said is correct. Skybox L.E and Fleer Throwbacks are two products that stick to mind. I didn't win my weekly box of L.E for once lol. I get my boxes from edge believe it or not, even though a lot of people on here don't seem to like buying boxes from him.

Funkadelic, I'll be looking forward to those box breaks!

 

[mattyj]

how come they dont like buying boxes from him???

i havent yet but i noticed he has a few thousand positive feedback

 

[Ja$e]

I've bought from him before and had no problems, but he rarely responds to emails and they are very short and blunt when he does respond. Other than that he's a good dealer. Don't think anyone dislikes him, he just lacks some "social skills" as someone put it.

 

[Dream34]

I brought a box off him a couple of weeks ago and they where arrived damaged still awaiting the insuance claim by him.
Fingers crossed

 

[mattyj]

did he say he would replace it????

how come it was damaged? was it not packed properly or something or was it more Aust Posts fault do you think??

 

[Dream34]

Well he wrapped it in a little bit of newspaper just scrunched up. not taped around it. he is putting in a claim for it at the moment for undelived, because it was express post. It was only a small box but all 100 cards got dinged up on their corners. I coped two damaged boxes in two weeks of two different sellers, talk about bad run.

 

[mattyj]

bugger....what are the odds of that!

ive had 4 in the last month - 3 from the states and 1 off an aus ebay guy and all have been fine...maybe its the posties up your way!!!
