At the White Plains show on Friday I picked up a couple of boxes of base Topps (one from 2012 and one from 2013). Brought them home and ripped one on Friday and one this evening. I don't open much but for the most part of the lsat few years I've opened RC products or mid-level rips.
Opening the packs (especially the 2013) with a family member was a ton of fun. The photography was great, 10 cards per pack including 1-2 inserts in most packs and the inserts were interesting (highlighting cool moments) as well as really cool looking (the "Cut to the Chase" cards are some of the nicest I've seen in years). 72 packs cost me just $80 and it was truly a great experience.
No real point to the story, just that I'd forgotten how much fun it is to open packs when the focus is on the players and photography and look of the cards without thinking much about pulling anything of value.
