wasnt hobby limited to like a little over 400 cases or so? i couldnt find any but found a retail box of 24 packs. bought it for 30 bucks with free shipping. got me an auto (a. tucker), jrsy (b. udrih) and ruby (base - c. billups) and a couple metal cards. not too bad. would have been nice to pull any rose rc's (only got 4 in the box), hickson was the nicest one. the rose would have paid for the box.

thats not to shabby for a retail box.

Not worth $105.This stuff is loaded with $6 GU.I bought a box from blowout last year for $48 and didn't like the product enough to buy another box at that price

[Phlash]

you can get the gem cards in the yellow retail boxes

[hairyangryfella]

If you pull a green of a decent player you've paid for the box (and depending on the player possibly several times over). Just the non-PMG stuff tends to be pretty rubbish. If I could get a box for $100 I would get it.

I have searched for a hobby everywhere online and any shops I have been to and haven't seen any anywhere. I found my retail on some place called wowzzer on the bay and ammazon store but I believe you can only get metal universe out of retail. My son pulled the Lebron metal univese out of some retail i found at a Kmart But a good pmg or a ruby or even a good Rose... I got the Bosh red pmg. If you get it, good luck and post the break I am interested to see what you get.
