Everyone has there oppinion about which places to buy from online. I personally buy hobby from LCS's that I trust, such as Line Drive Sports in Tiffin or TCI sports fan. Most places wouldnt risk searching boxes and losing customers, not saying some dont, but for example when TCI gets in new product, they have so many customers the boxes dont last long. I got 2011 Topps Platinum box the day the got them in the store, was standing there waiting on the UPS. They opened the case and put all the boxes in front of me and I picked whichever one I wanted. As Far as online chose Dave and Adams for a box of 2011 Contenders and pulled 8 autos out of the box including one autographed superbowl ticket. Its all a gamble and all about luck. If everyone pulled a something spectacular out of every box it would kill the hobby and make the cards meaningless. There was a day when you werent guarrenteed anything as far as a "hit" in a hobby box, it seems this year even in retail your guarrenteed something. Dont get me wrong its makes it worth my money but Its disheartening when people are crying cuz they didnt pull a cam newton, tim tebow,sam bradford, andrew luck or rg3 out of every pack they open. I spend money on old stuff just to be suprised even though I know my chances are not that great and actually getting something because I find it FUNNNNNNN!
