Newbie here...

I just won a 2004-05 Bowman Signature hobby box on Ebay for $36. Is this as big a steal as it seems to me?

That's what I'm hoping for.

I've been buying quite a bit of 04-05, because that rookie class is very underpriced at the moment. No way Dwight Howard should be priced that low - I don't understand how beckett can adjust Andrew Bynum's prices to reality and barely even touch Howard. He's the best big man in basketball, really easy to root for, super exciting to watch, and his rookies are worth less than freaking Emeka Okafor!

Then you've got a bunch of other great potential steals like Josh Smith, Al Jefferson and Andre Iguodola.

So hopefully I'll come away with at least one star auto. Very rare you get a chance for one this cheap...I'll post back here once I get the cards.
