    Should I buy....?

    I haven't made many racing trades recently because for one, money is tight and I haven't bought any boxes. I'm looking at buying a box of Premium, but honestly, I haven't been too impressed with what people have gotten for their money (with a few lucky exceptions). I thought about Eclipse too since I haven't bought any Eclipse boxes, but I didn't see anyone selling them on ebay (sold out??) Is Premium worth buying or should I just wait for Stealth to come out? I can probably just buy the base set of premium fairly cheaply and get the rest of my Eclipse '08 base by trading, so I was thinking Stealth would be my best bang for the buck. Any suggestions?

    Also, where did David Munoz go? Haven't seen him on here in quite a while.
    (Never mind...I see he is still around. I thought he went to go play baseball LOL:

    I'd probably hold out for Stealth....I, personally, wasn't too impressed with Premium, and Stealth looks awesome this year.

    Eclipse and Premium were both pretty good for me...but with what I hit, who wouldn't say that? LOL

    I say go with a Premium box and see what happens...Stealth is a hit/miss product with me, IMO

    WOW!! My first baseball card. Should I start autographing? LOL. Don, whatever you do, hold on for next product, Premium is pathetic!! My 3 boxes were absolute crap!!! Some have been fortunate, but it doesnt look like its average across all boxes, it's do or die across the board. You either hit well, or hit nothing!! The card design leave much to be desired also imho. I used to love Premium, but from what I've seen in these past few years, they suck. Eclipse was a sweet release across all their cards, including their low level inserts. Speedway, is just a renamed Traks from what I can see so far. It's Press Pass way of trying to get people to buy, since they did so poorly with the past 2 traks releases. Traks has been a poor seller since it's first release in the 90's, and it appears Press Pass is continuing the trend. Stealth looks to be as good or better than last year. I Might pass on speedway and save for extra stealth boxes this year.

    I'll tell ya what, I wish I would have saved my money on Premium this year. I went 0 for 3 on it this year. I thorougly enjoyed Eclipse. I would definitely hold off for Stealth. I thought 07 Traks wasn't that bad, as long as you got a decent deal. Just my thoughts though.

    personally....I'd rather have Premium instead of Stealth...but my Premium luck was pretty decent...3 signings, and 2 Hot Threads in about a box and a half...Not as big a fan of the Chrome thing but like a lot of things...it kinda grows on me...

    Thanks for the info Dave! That baseball card is still yours as soon as we make another trade. I have very little new stuff, so I haven't made any updates on my trade list for a while.
