Cases - Love them..not the super expensive ones but whatever I can get on closeout or what just looks fun. I tend to stay around from the $2200 cases as they tend to be hit or miss sometimes but anywhere bwtween $800-$1000 is fine. The most fun I have had in awhile breaking was '12 Topps Heritage, it was just a blast to break the case, sell the singles and now I have more $$$ for the next adventure! I really think I just like opening things.

Meant I not u, lol. I could have bought 20 musial autos for the money i spent on boxes, lol. After looking back it really sickens me. Just sticking to singles for now haha

every dollar is precious, so its gotta go towards intentional cards!
boxes are FUN-
Being broke with a $2 no-name auto is NOT FUN

I busted wax in the beginning. While its fun I got tired of getting hits I just did not want. Would sell them but in the end your spending way more than you can make back. Spent the last 2 years buying/selling/trading what I want and my collection is the way it is now because of that. Why spend thousands on cases to get Marlon Byrd and Fauso Carmona Relics and Autos when you can save that towards a Pristine Bowman Auto Pujols

I try to bust a pack or two of each new baseball product and I pick up the Topps Factory set each year but other than that it's singles for me. The most fun I have is taking a couple hundred dollars that I've managed to squirrel away and head for a card show. Last time I spent $160 at a local show and came home with over $4500 worth of singles. Better yet, they were all players that I collect.

singles

I enjoy both.....but for high end like TRIBUTE, I just could'nt shell out around $3 BILLS on a box. So instead I bought some singles that caught my eye, nothing too expensive I set my limit at under $20.00 a card shipped. I've picked up some pretty neat stuff though in that price range!!

The only way the vast, vast majority of people can bust more than a box these days is if they have the opportunity to sell what they pull, in effect making themselves 'middle-men' or distributors for the card companies.

So if you like selling, bust a case
