RE: Am I wrong about my thoughts on buying boxes?
I think buying singles or lots is always the smarter buy because you cant pull a RG3 auto in every box but there is no replacement for the excitement of busting a box of wax. NONE!
Depending on your budget for cards maybe spend 75% on singles/lots and 25% on boxes that way you have the best of both worlds haha.
BTW share your PC with us. Id like to check it out.

RE: Am I wrong about my thoughts on buying boxes?
the urge to bust and pull big is always addicting. and even if i pulled huge in the first box, i'd waste it by continuing to bust until i was on the losing end. so, no, it's not a bad thing to just concentrate on your own pc.

RE: Am I wrong about my thoughts on buying boxes?
The best pulls I've ever had are Matt Ryan autos from 08 Topps Chrome, an Unrivaled auto Matt Ryan from a group break, one UD Premier brett favre redemption, a 2010 Supreme Favre, 2009 Ultimate 6 patches with Sayers, smith, sanders, Piccolo, campbell, hornung, and a marino 08 ud premier auto. Most of everything I've pulled is trade bait.

Thanks for all of your feedback. I have gotten into group breaks and I def feel that group breaks are the way to go when collecting trade bait.

If you don't mind me asking, how do you get in your group breaks? I have always been curious on how they work.

RE: Am I wrong about my thoughts on buying boxes?
i buy boxes once in awhile.. depending the product.. all in all if i want specific cards i will not turn to boxes in HOPES to find my needs.. way easier to buy individually for certain needs.
Collecting Terrell Owens,Tom Brady,Peyton Manning, Josh Hamilton, Alex Smith
If you don't have any HIGH end cards, please don't try to acquire one of mine. Thank you.
