From RittenHouse:
Q: What does “Limited” and “Very Limited” mean in regards to autograph card quantities?
A: Normal = 500 and up
Limited = 300-500 range
Very Limited = 200 – 300
Extremely Limited = 200 or less

Just assume that a basic auto has a product of 1000 and treat each level at their worst
production.
Add up all of the autos/ divide by number per box, and you will have a rough idea of how
many boxes it will take to get your desired auto.

This is not really for the break but the company.
I’m just not sold on Rittenhouse quite yet.
I LOVE their sets but their incentive programs
are kinda crazy.
Please tell me how many collectors can afford to buy 3+ and/or 6+
cases of one product to obtain 2 cards that are VERY* limited in box releases.
I do commend you on keeping autos and sp’s to a minimum but what reason
do I have for buying a pack and/or box at bloated prices knowing that the
chances of getting a BIG HIT are extremely small?
I can wait 6 months after the product is released buy a complete set of base cards and
most inserts for $10 on Ebay.

*I emailed Rittenhouse CSR after seeing the checklist online to inquire about the availability of the Peter Dinklage and Sean Bean cards from Game of Thrones and the Neil Grayston and Colin Ferguson (my surname name btw) from the Eureka set.
I did receive a very prompt reply that all the aformentioned cards would be, (VERY) in bold letters and all caps limited in boxes. SO 1 in 100,000 or 1 in 1,000,000???????????????
