I ordered 1 box of Topps Sterling from Atlanta Sports cards and Just opened the wrapper and mystery pack. In the mystery pack I got a Ryne Sandberg Silver Card 1/1 and the box is of TY COBB! Pretty good luck to pull that right? I am debating on opening or just selling the box on the bay... Opinions?

Since you only bought one box I would imagine that you could make your money back on the card whether it is a regular jersey piece or something better. So, my opinion would be to open it up and post a scan :)

Isn't hoping for a box like Ty Cobb the reason you BUST it anyway?

Bust,you'll end up making money either way between that and the 1/1.

You already pulled the Ryno 1/1 which you can sell and make a decent buck or 2 on---and you have a Chance at possibly pulling a really sick Cobb Bat Barrel or something---for that shot I would open it....you can always sell everything out of it, if you decide you dont like it and be just fine because it is Ty Cobb....

i think he busted it and didnt get anything and is now mad at all of us for selfishly wanting to see what he got/pulled instead of telling him to go sell to the highest bidder as this hobby is only about the $$$$$$.......

LOL, that actually sounds kind of funny coming from me

you guys are funny... I have not busted it yet ... I put the cobb box and the 5 prime cuts in my car.... I have no cases here at work to store the cards so I am going to bust them at home and live break them.... I am leaving work early so watch the box break boards

You can sell sealed for like $400. You can sell what is most likely a GU for about $250. So do you want to pay $150 for a chance at a barrel/cut?

You're making money whether you bust or open, so it can't hurt to give it a try...
