Just back in the hobby, need advice!

Hey guys, just started buying cards again, want a cheap fun rip tonight, the walmart up the street has a hobby box of 2010 topps chrome for 50.

Would it be better value wise to get that or two blasters of 2012 topps chrome?

Thanks for the help!

2010 topps chrome had a huge checklist. There is good hits such as stanton and castro but the odds of getting one are rare. Id probally go with the blasters myself tho

I'd go with 2010 where your at least guaranteed 2 autos

2012 all day

Hobby all day. Go with the sure thing. If you haven't ripped in a while might as well know you're gonna walk away with something other than potentially nothing but a lighter wallet

My local Wallyland has had a ton of old hobby boxes recently: 2008 Donruss EEE, 2010 Topps Chrome, 2010 UD, 2008 Bow Chrome, 2007 Artifacts, 2009 UD Signature Stars, and a few others I can't remember right now. I've been tempted on a few but never pulled the trigger.

Same with mine. I was tempted but said no.
