3 blaster boxes 2008 Bowman DP&P

[djscrib]

I was weak and grabbed 3 more 8-pack blaster boxes from target.

Box 1:

Nothing, not a damn thing, except for a Gorkys Hernandez common I'd been looking for.

Box 2:

Matt Harrison Refractor
Taylor Teagarden Blue Refractor (62/99)

Box 3:

Brandon Boggs Refractor
Chris Carter Refractor
David Shafer Auto (SoTF)
Joe Mather Orange Refractor (in the same pack as the Shafer Auto)

Anyhow, how does this stack up vs. a hobby box in people's opinions?

You guys are talking about commons of those guys?

Posey and Beckham are only autos in the set. They don't have any base cards yet. As for your 3 blasters you did pretty good with the blue and orange refractor but for the same price you can get a hobby box that will garuntee a Chrome auto let alone a colored chrome auto and you have about a 1 out of every 10 box chance of pulling a Aflac auto. The Porcello Aflac sells around $100 and the Jason Heyward sells around $120-$150. So I think the value is in the hobby boxes. Although you run the risk of spending $60 on a hoby box and pulling a Cody Adams Auto that will net you $3 if your lucky. All in all there are a lot of good autos in 08 Draft and it is a pretty decent gamble. The Chrome propsects will pan out in a year or two and those will be worth anywhere from $2-$8 a peice for the handfull of good prospects.

Very nice summary.

I've had some amazing luck with my hobby boxes so far with Posey, and a few AFLAC's all coming my way. So I definitely prefer hobby even though I've never tried a blaster (wouldn't waste my money)

P.S shoot me a PM about a trade for the orange refractor I have a friend that collects the cardinals. Thanks!
