Which Prospect Product to Bust

Nikobaseball · Apr 6, 2009

Likely going to have a decent amount of PP coming in.
Contemplating between the choices seen in the poll.

If you pick other, please post what "other" thing you're referring to.

08 Contenders. SP autos = big money.

They're SP'ed for a reason though. With only 5-6 auto's, the odds of me hitting the big ones isn't likely. 07 elite has a HUGE top prospect auto checklist, and I also love 08 Draft's as well.

True that. Also, give Razor signature a second thought to. My second best bet would be 08 Draft.

Staying away from Razor entirely. I've given them chances and have bought probably 8-10 razor boxes, with very little success (minus one hot box, with a tim beckham blue /25

).
Probably between 08 draft/07 elite for me.

I would say 07 draft

If I were doing multiple cases, I'd likely agree, BUT the chance at garbage auto's only and a green case leaves me with some base chromes, and nothing else.

It would have to be the 08 Draft or 07 EEE in my opinion. In a case of 08 Draft, you will probably hit one colored auto (gold or better)....which could be Stanton, Inoa, Posey, Beckham, Montero, or Flores. Those are high tier prospects that could be big $$$....plus, you get the aflac!

07 EEE could be huge if you hit a nice Wieters parallel auto....it wouldn't be a bad choice either.

Understood but the price point is the lowest it has been since release and a bunch of the autos have potential. If you were looking to rip and flip I would say 07 elite

Think that's what I'll do. Still interested to hear more opinions though.
Thanks guys

The one thing I have learned though is that in the long run its better to buy full cases than partial ones multiple times. Yea, once or twice you might get the best cards out of the case in the few boxes, but usually you wont, and thats assuming the boxes aren't from a partially open case in which all the big guys have already been pulled. Obviously that is not possible with the price point of 07 elite

ah, only if that were true....lol! i've seen many many MANY cases with the highest color being either blue or even xfractor

for the money now, the cases are at its highest so i dont think 08 draft is worth it

and no to 07 bcdp. actually, wait til tomorrow to decide on that. andrew's doing a 3 case break.

my money says 07 elite or 08 bowman (very very underrated product!)

'07 Donruss Elite. Loaded. Lots of potential and impact players. Couple redemptions.

Obviously, I voted other..You know how I feel about busting wax

HoustonTeams4Me · Apr 6, 2009

I chose "other"....I'd buy single's (almost guaranteed a better return)! But if you're looking to have fun, rip some box's (of course if I'm looking for fun & the excitement of gambling...I go to the casino)!

Good Luck either way bud, Dave.

Jordan-

I could use the relaxation of a nice wax busting session...I think I'm actually narrowed down between 07 EEE 5-6 boxes and a case of 08 Bowman (if I can find one for a reasonable price). While singles would undoubtedly give me a better return, it's worth the fun for me, for now at least

ehh, a ****** would be a better relaxation session and the payoff would be MUCH MUCH better..Busting wax is akin to lighting that $$$ on fire..
