    Certified or Threads?

    Hey,
    So I'm looking to crack a box open soon... but it'll probably be towards the middle/end of May. I've got 2 final ideas, but need help on what to choose!

    I'm looking at either 09-10 Certified or 09-10 Threads.

    09-10 Certified:
    $77.75/box
    4 hits (at least one auto)
    10 packs, 5 per pack
    I've seen some good breaks
    Some nice cards for Trade Bait

    09-10 Threads:

    $81.95/box
    24 packs, 5 per pack
    4 hits (at least one auto)
    I've seen some Really nice breaks
    Some good cards for trade bait.


    Now I'm leaning more towards threads, because there's almost 3x the amount of packs.... it'll be a longer, more exciting break IMO, and there'll be more parallels, and I think there's cooler hits in Threads over certified.

    But what do you think?

    here's what I'm thinking right now... Threads looks to have the same kind of hits in each box, and some common parallels... but Certified has a bunch of different Hits (see the 6 or 7 patch cards spelling out team names?) and other #'d, etc., but less cards.

    Now Classics has been brought up as well, may not be newer players but 18 packs + 5 cards/pack at, what I'm looking at to be $84.95, looks pretty good. I might consider it.

    Would like to get a few more suggestions though!

    I really liked the Threads, Helped that I pulled a Blake Rookie letterman auto i guess!

    And I have a box of Classics on order, I really like the cards but dont know what hits to really expect.

    Overall probably depends on what you want. You should get nearly the whole base set from the Threads, not with the Classics.

    I agree!!! Classics is a ton of fun, but if i HAD to choose between Thread and Certified, def Threads basically for all the reasons you mentioned in the original thread. Good Luck. Hope you pull something crazy cool!!!!
