Top best sets of the last ten years (2001-2010)

[TraderJake]

Ill go with

2001 Bowman Chrome- Started the chrome autograph craze with the best of the bunch.
2001 Topps Heritage- Brought back set-building and SPs
2005 Absolute Memorobillia- Probably the best mem set with the best jersey card of the decade
2005 Bowman Draft- Tons of big names both auto and non Auto
2010 Bowman- reinvigorated collecting with Strasburg and Harper, and would have had one of the best prospect checklists without both those guys

What do you have?

I would have to put 05 Prime Patches in there for sure as well as 05 Ultimate.

2002 Bowman Chrome Draft!! It seems like about 25% of the cards in that set have been hot at one point or another:

Cole Hamels, James Loney, Jeff Francoeur, BJ Upton, Zack Greinke, Dontrelle Willis, Joey Votto, Curtis Granderson, Jeremy Hermida, Matt Cain, Josh Johnson, Shelley Duncan, Corey Hart, Jason Stokes, Dallas McPherson, Casey Kotchman.

Before that set came out, there were very few people into "prospecting". The 2002 Bowman Draft set changed the hobby.

And you might be able to tell from my signature that I'm a fan of that set, too!

I can't stand Upper Deck, but the frenzy for 2009 Ultimate qualify?

The first Legendary Cuts has to be on the list. It was the begining of some amazing cut sigs!

2007 Donruss Elite. Return of a great brand, and anyone who busted in bulk likely made money if they played it smart (Heyward, Moustakas, Price, Weiters, Parker, LaPorta autos plus many many more that had great life).
