In your opinion, which easy to put together/cheap football set do you think is better.....Topps or Score? I put together the score set already and sounds like I choose more wisely. Thanks for your thoughts. Matt
Here is how I break it down:
Score Hobby box:
- Cost: $61
- Hits: 3
- Cards: 20 packs, 5 cards = 100 Cards
- Card design: not so good
- Rookie Uniform: college
Topps:
- Cost: $95
- Hits: 3
- Cards: 10 packs, 50 cards = 500 Cards
- Card design: nice
- Rookie Uniform: NFL
- Long shot chance at a Rookie Premier auto.
I would have to say Topps is the better choice: especially once the price on the jumbo box starts to fall (and it will). I also tend like Topps better "just because": weak argument, I know.
I used the Jumbo box for the comparison because I wouldn't consider buying a regular hobby box of Topps. I'm willing to pay a little extra for the shot at a Rookie Premier autograph.
