buying "CHASE" boxes
Today, which is my B-Day.
I decided to go online and browse at cards and stuff.
I am more interested in vintage cards.
i collect either baseball or football and some nascar.
So i decided to go with this:
My question: Are these really worth buying? I will soon find out when my package arrives...and yes i got 5 boxes.
It should be a good, but late b-day gift.

I agree with everyone else. I do not see anything good coming out of any of those boxes. Good luck though.

RE: buying "CHASE" boxes
Sorry it wasn't better - there is another thread here about the mixed boxes at Walmart and Target (company is either Fairfield or Excel - something like that)
10 mixed packs for $10 or 16 for $20 or some variation of those - they seem better since they are mostly packs from the last 5 years - rarely any from 80's and 90's.
Still not likely to be big hits, but probably better inserts/base than the "chase" ones.
CURRENT NEEDS:
*2011 Topps Black Diamond Wrapper Redemptions (wants marked in ORG)
*All Carl Edwards Cards I don't have (wants marked in ORG)
*Marcus Thornton, Kevin Johnson (NBA)
*"Air Coryell" San Diego Chargers
