I have a question for all of you and it will help me decide what to do with a Bonus check I have coming in the next month or so.
“I want to buy a ½ case or so of cards($600.00) and was wondering what to get based on the odds of pulling something GREAT. What products will give me more for my buck I guess! I really like the Legends, but is there a product out there that has a better return on it? Plus I think $600.00 will only get me about 6 boxes of 18 packs per box with a return of a average of 12 race-used and 6 auto’s.
Was just wondering what your thoughts where.
Thanks Kevin

If you are going to hang onto too it, I would have to say either Eclipse or Wheels American Thunder. Little more per box but the pulls are there per box.

Eclipse - 1 autograph & 2 race used on average per box
Undercover, Double Cover

Wheels American Thunder - 1 autograph & 2 race used on average per box
Cool Threads, Double Hat, Single Hat, Pushin' Pedal

Either is good - depends on what kind of race used you like best

I would look at the products like:
Eclipse
WAT
Legends
From there you should look at the RU/Autos in the products and pick what you like best.

LOL, sorry Kevin, I did not even really go into odd's just gave you my opinion on products. Your odds on the products people have been listing are the better ones for pulling RU and Autos. It does depend on what year products your going to pick up too. Plus not only would you think about odds but which RU it is in the boxes. Keep in mind that Eclipse really works off Car Covers where the WAT has several different RU and Legends you know has different ones...

I have opened 3 ten box cases of Stealth...
you get one auto per box and at least one # card.
and either a corporate cut ,rookie prospect or gear gripper .
Of the 3 cases I opened I pulled my odds out of every case ...
also something to consider would be if the boxes contain Signature series or high $$$ autograph...
even though several people like American Thunder you should weigh out the what is the BEST card you could pull out of it....
VS
what is the best possible pull out of Stealth....
American Thunder Best card unless it is a car # race used is
Jeff Gordon Auto....
Stealth best pull....
Jr Sig series glove # to 8
or a multicolor 4 wide
or a 1/1 Hat redemption
or
Red ink signings of one of the big dogs....
to me for the value Stealth was the best product for the $$$ spent ......
Although the RUSH of getting race used and autos out of Legends is nice and there are still some OUTSTANDING cards never seen....
they may not be in the boxes....
I know that Stealth has the sig series I have seen Jr ...
Pulled a Gordon ,2 Crocker sigs, Kurt Busch 1/1 hat redemption, Kasey Kahne Red ink auto 1/100 ....
And you can get a 10 box for right around $600 if you can find them...
this is only my opinion and it is very biased toward Stealth ....
I may have been one of the lucky people on them....
however ...
I am addicted to Legends ...
and almost hit a buy it now for $1200 on a 12 box case....
if I had hair I would pull it out right now...
