    What boxes should I buy?

    I want to buy about 3 or 4 boxes soon. I was leaning towards BAP (80), OPC Update (50), CC (25) (for my set), and maybe something else (about 35-50). What do you think? I don't want to buy a box more than $90-100 though and want something that will give me a good return in value. I also want to have a little money left over so I can buy some singles. I have about $200-220.

    EDIT:

    A DECISION HAS BEEN MADE!

    Here is what I want to get assuming there are these boxes at the show:

    08-09 Artifacts Hobby x2 - 55 each, 110 total
    08-09 UD 2 Hobby - 50
    08-09 CC Hobby - 25

    TOTAL: $185

    Stay away from OPC update IMO. BAP is good, you can get Artifacts for a lil more then OPC Update. Maybe 1 CC, 2 Artifacts, and 1 BAP. That will set you back about 220. Maybe even 1 CC, 1 BAP, 2 UD Series 1 (about 50 bucks apeiece). That will set you back about 200

    Yea, UD S1 definitely delivers in value, i got about $200 back in bv without the base. i agree with 07mears07 on the way u should go. maybe replace one of the UDS1 with a S2 for a little variety even though they don't have the best rc's, u can still hit the Filatov, Brunnstrom, or Varlamov.

    Any more input? Now I'm leaning towards this:
    BAP
    UD 2
    CC
    OPC Update or Artifacts (not sure, what can you get from Artifacts???)

    I think I'm gonna do this:
    Artifacts - 60
    BAP - 80
    CC - 25
    UD 2 - 50

    That leaves me $5 for singles...I'll let you guys know what I get from the boxes!

    Thanks for the input guys, really appreciate it!
