    Box Busting Advice Anyone?

    Well I got an email today from my LCS saying that they are having a special for the rest of the week. If you buy two of the following boxes you get the third free. Here is the list of what they have:

    FOOTBALL
    2009 BOWMAN JUMBO
    2009 PRESTIGE
    2009 PRESS PASS SIGNATURE EDITION
    2009 DONRUSS ROOKIE AND STARS
    2008 BOWMAN CHROME
    2008 ROOKIE PROGRESSION
    2007 BOWMAN
    2007 ARTIFACTS
    2006 TOPPS
    2006 TOPPS TOTAL

    I'm wondering if anyone has an idea of which boxes would be the best. I was thinking either Prestige, Rookies and Stars or Bowman Chrome. But none of them have much of a big pull potential. So I thought I might just order a box or two of some better 08 stuff instead. Has any one busted any of these boxes and how has your luck been with them?

    I think Rookies and Stars would be the best of those!

    Definately rookies and stars I've busted two boxes and both are solid. Check out some of the posts on the box break/product review threads. Haven't seen a box that didn't have a patch auto, 2 jys & 1 patch or more. Those are just the minimum of what I've seen so far, some have 2 autos (1 patch auto and 1 reg). Saw one the other day had a patch auto, a jumbo jsy and two patches. I would definately go w/ rookies and stars.

    I agree with your original thoughts...R&S and Prestige from this year are good and 2008 Bowman Chrome would be a pretty good box as well. The only other one I would even consider really is 2007 Artifacts...I kinda like that product, but I know there were a lot of bad breaks of it.

    I like the Artifacts. But it looks as though I am a minority on that one.

    I'd be all over the Bowman Chrome.

    Alright guys I went to the shop today and picked up three boxes of R&S. I'll probably opening them tomorrow and post on the product review boards. I never busted more than one box at a time, I better get something good out of 3 boxes.
