What would you do??
|
After waiting an extra 2 weeks for my 2 boxes of Super Jumbo Bowman Chrome, the mail today had 2 boxes of regular Jumbo! So, now the vendor will send me a 3rd box of regular Jumbo to make it up to me. 9 autos instead of 10, but 3 Jumbos cost more than 2 Super Jumbos.
Did I get a good deal or not? 
I would say you got a better deal. 1 less auto, but I would argue the chances for more serial numbered cards is better. Plus, there are some pretty solid prospects in this year's set, so getting a couple extra Rutschmans would make up for 1 less auto in my opinion.

RE: What would you do??
I haven't bought a box of cards since 1987 and am not a prospector at all but if you're looking for prospects, I would go with the deal that will give you more cards. I assume there are more cards in a Super Jumbo box than a Jumbo box but I don't know how many more. If three Jumbo boxes have more cards than two Super Jumbo boxes then that is what I would probably opt for. The one auto you miss out on could most likely be a scrub anyway. The big factor for me would be having the boxes in my possession and resisting the urge to bust them open.

I would accept the third box and move on, with a mental note to stay away from them in the future.
If you pull any Riley Greene stuff please let me know my good man!

I made the right decision...for once!

Then, pack 8 of the 2nd box...Riley Greene Blue Autograph /150 Yowza!! That just paid for everything else.

The autos are intended to justify my spending.

Every card was miscut so bad white was showing on the left border on most of them.
