I agree with that. I was not impressed much with too many boxes last year. At that price you are going to want decent return, and that might only come from The Cup or ITG Ultimate, if you hit it and that is the risk you take.

If you can hold off until SP Authentic comes out. Do it. Ive bought cases the past 2 years and have always made money off them. This year looks sick too if you haven't seen the card design.

If you like basball at all I recommend a case of the Just minors mystery gamers. not a jersy card, not a patch but the real deal game sued hat, spikes, 2 pair of batting gloves, and (jersey or fielding glove) very good hit list as well. Just some absoluetly cool stuff in there from cool players.

Looks like basically $1300 on DA's site for a presell price:

But think they have weird rules now with new product from Manufacturer that can't ship to Canada until product been out so long, least I think I read that somewhere. But not 100% on that now.

I did not fare so well in my boxes, but others have. It is not a bad product, but there are no rookies. The major hits are HOF player autos. There are a lot of so-so autos and some boxes only have one auto if they have the rainbow foil mini #/11. Not sure you would make your money back, but I have not seen anyone bust a case. You might want to search youtube to see if anyone broke a case on there and see how they did to get an idea.

THATS A GOOD IDEA.. I WAS LOOKING TO BUST SOMETHING IN HOPES TO GET A FEW HITS.. ITS MORE ABOUT THE JOY AND EXCITMENT THAN MAKING MY MONEY BACK.. I AM A FAN OF THE OLDER AND HOF PLAYERS AND JUST LOVE THE LOOK OF THE PRODUCT AND ALL THE DIFFERENT VARIATION AND SUBSETS. I THINK IF I WERE TO BUST A CASE I WOULD SELL OFF SOME AND KEEP SOME. I THINK IF I GOT 75-80 % CASH VALUE BACK I WOULD CONSIDER IT A SUCCESS.. LOL

I also enjoy the HOF players and 11-12 Parkhurst probably has the best grouping of HOF Stars like Gretzky, Roy, Lemeiux, Howe, so hopefully you will hit one of those to help pay for the case. I liked 08-9 Masterpieces and 06-07 Parkhurst as well for HOF players. The 06-07 Parkhurst has 4 autos, but I think there are a lot of lower end ones, whereas the 11-12 Parkhurst has a good bit of lower end ones as well, but some of the mid-range ones are seeded at long odds and they seem to book better because of the seeding ratio.

I did make the mistake of doing spgu, though still pulled 2 letterman in a half case and couple dual autos low numbered. Parkhurst is ok at best. I tend to stay away from ITG stuff. BAP is always fun, along with crown royal and dominion.
