2012 topps?
I was just trying to get some input on buying ..which would be better to get a so called hit ? Single packs , rack pack , blaster box , or the 10.00 box?
I purchased a box yesterday didn't really get anything besides the free patch card, a cool Broadway Joe (nameth ) card and some cool mini cards I call them tobacco cards. All help and suggestions will be appreciated .
Thanks

I think the 72-card boxes are the best, I believe they're $14.99 ... you get one rookie jersey and 16 rookie cards, whereas a blaster for $19.99 has only 12-14 rookies and no guaranteed hit, other than the manufactured patch card.
Basically, you get a better mix of cards for $5 cheaper, which means you could basically add a free rack pack for the price of a blaster.

I'd wait a few days til hobby packs are released and buy a Jumbo HTA box. But if retail is your only option I'd stick with a blaster or 10.00 value box. loose packs and rack packs can be searched (damn idiot at my local walmart bending packs every wednesday).

Bending packs man I got a guy who bends and measures packs and even feels the top of the pack and ends up damaging cards in the process
