does anyone else do this

At target a box of playoff prestige is 19.99 it has 8 packs in it. At dacardworld a true box with 24 packs in it is 79$. It's cheaper to buy 4 boxes at target and get 32 packs. so thats what I'am going to do. There's good stuff in these boxes too. Yesterday i bought one of those boxes and pulled a julius peppers gu. please give me any input.

Its retail so your mostly likely going to end up getting 2 GU in a hobby box and if your lucky get 2 in a retail. Nice pull on the Peppers.

You got lucky with that Peppers GU. You will pull much better stuff with Hobby.

[truffleshuffle]

I agree with that you will have better luck pulling something from hobby boxes but you can get good pulls in retail too. yesterday i bought a retail box of ud rookie debute for 9.99. At the time i didn;t know it only had 4 packs in a box or i woulden;t have bought it but im glad i did. i pulled a culpepper sunday swatch and a rookie auto. I don't remember the auto players name off had but getting a auto and a jersey out of a 4 pack 9.99 retail box is pretty good

its all a crap shoot, nice rip.

[celtics4]

why do you have less chance on getting a good pull in retail if the packs are in seeled boxes. There not getting pack searched.

[CrawfordFan13]

Because companies make the odds worse on Retail and put bad cards in them.....

[11chaos]

I dont know about bad cards but the odds are different. Look at pack back. If I can afford if I will only buy hobby, but sadly I am not rich so I must buy retail blaster boxes to satisfy my need to rip.

Of Course I am the Anti-Mojo Master, hear me roar, Dang it!

As a rule I never buy loose packs as they are more often than not searched. Hobby boxes come sealed too... you don't have to buy the loose packs from your local store.

Retail: Three 8-pack boxes. $60. Junk cards with chance of maybe a couple good cards.
Hobby: One 24-pack box. $80. Nice cards with guarantee of a many good cards.

Also alot of nice subsets are Hobby Only meaning you can't find them in Retail packs.

I agree I went to target once and bought one of those 9.99 box that has like 12 different packs in it, one pack was the UD nfl legends, opened it and got a Johnny Unitas autograph, bks at 175.00!! Keep buying from there!!
