what should i buy?

[comfortably9numb]

ok so im in a pickle....i want to get a box of some sort on friday...but i only have about 130ish to spend (with another semester or college coming up i don't wanna spend too much)...im torn between getting a box of ultimate and then some random packs i see...or if i should buy a box of something like BAP or artifacts...i've never bought a high end product like ultimate so im kind of nervous of putting all that cash into one pack...but it seems that everyone is liking it so far...any ideas?? thanks!

ultimate all the way :)

thats what im leaning towards...im just nervous haha i've never bought something high end...but i REALLY wanna open one...half just to say i opened a higher end product, half because i have a better shot at better cards (and i won't get a lot of worthless base cards that take up a lot of room)

well if you get the ultimate you could hit it big!!!! even though one pack is a huge gamble..i got one pack and got a carey price auto a numbered rookie ( not a biggie ) and a dual 1 clr jrsy of grant fhur numbered to 100..so i wasn't too impressed..if you are getting it from a lcs then your chouices will be a little limited..but if you look into blowout.com or dave and adams .com..i'm sure you could find something with more bang for your buck on there site..imo..good luck

well i live in buffalo so dave and adams has a store here...they have pretty much everything on their site in their store as well

ok so i narrowed it down to either ultimate and some random packs or a box of artifacts...i haven't really seen anything from artifacts tho...anyone opened any? do you like them??

[comfortably9numb]

anyone else have opinions?? i haven't really heard anything about artifacts

[max91ess]

ehh its too expensive artifacts been backordered a lot..So distributors, have been running around getting it for the big $$$

So instead of being 80$ a box tehre all like 100$ minimum and that price not worth it

2 rc..will be okay..nothing huge

Rookie redemption unless you get: Myers, duchene, tavares, nothing sells weell

jersey sell under 5$..

sometimes there big hits:P

but mostly, not worth it wait for artifacts 10-11:)

ultimate huge hit or miss, i would go with SPA

I sometimes get a year or two old box cheaper. The downside is redemptions could have expired and if you're selling, the new RC's are always hot. When I get Ultimate, I save up ans ONLY buy 4 pack boxes. You get them a little cheaper per pack and are guarenteeed the nicer patch card. I like SPA hard signed autos, but I usually get a year or 2 old SPGU box for $110-130

yeah thats probably a good idea...i guess ill just have to stop by and see what they have...i have tomorrow off so im planning on going tomorrow and ill just have a decide when i get there...i'll make sure to post whatever i pull tomorrow! thanks again guys!
