I too like to buy the blasters with the hopes of pulling something good....they are mostly always crap though. I like the thrill of busting packs, not knowing what is inside. After my last retail binge resulted in a loss of $60, with a bunch of crappy base rookies to show for it (Sure they are worth $100 or so.....but not really) I vowed to save my money and spend it on something really nice from ebay. I do still however fancy the idea of buying a hobby box sometime in the future.....Can never rationalize spending $110 on the box I want though.
Collecting Greenwood, Woodley, and other Steelers. Also collecting 1993 Pacific Prisms (Check my org for set needs)
