    The Cup or not The Cup.... for PC?

    So everything I have seen pulled of 09-10 The Cup has been very impressive and as for a personal collection of a player, Jordan Staal his cards in this brand look (sic).

    Though Im drawn to the 3 clr/4clr visuals and the lot of RC's Im debating if I should sink at least 2 boxes worth into The Cup or investing that much into moderating prices mid to high prices PC cards and memorabilia.

    I kinda know the answer but I wanna read what other PC collectors VS pack/boxes/tin busters think of what they would do, thanks.

    I would never bust The Cup unless I had about $1000 set aside to just spend on cards. Otherwise, I'd buy PC cards.

    Defiantly depends. I'd break 2 tins just because there seems to be that one great hit in each tin. Maybe you get a shield and there is your money back, then you have 8 other cards to play with. Now those chances are unlikely, but with the patches in this product, you can't go wrong.

    I learned my lesson, I spent several thousand on various boxes over the last 3 years. I got one PC cards and less than %50 in trade value. I could have secured every top Zetty card I need for my PC with that.

    Buy singles. I'm a player collector though I'm addicted to busting packs/boxes. It is like crack. Buy singles will smart and wise is boring. Gambling is fun expect when you lose which is most of the time.
