Remember when you were younger and dreamed of the day when you could buy a case of your favorite set, say, 1988 Topps? Well, over there you can and for about a third of the price of when they came out. I have done that with a few sets and when you see that case sitting on your doorstep and realize your are about to participate in an dream come true it blows anything else out there away. Good times.Coryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05304319598950151727noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2275201469792545329.post-76790932378113677252012-01-31T14:02:31.981-05:002012-01-31T14:02:31.981-05:00I am strictly a blaster guy now.

Best bet is to lock in a pre-order early before the prices rise the closer the release date approaches.flywheelshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17404740580161509052noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2275201469792545329.post-30936153905391980922012-01-31T10:57:58.165-05:002012-01-31T10:57:58.165-05:00If I remember right, the price of the 2011 Topps h...If I remember right, the price of the 2011 Topps hobby boxes last year actually rose after they were released because of the Diamond Giveaway cards.<br /><br />I usually get a hobby box of the first Topps set each year, they're always around 60 to 65 bucks w/shipping. If you're going to buy a 2012 Topps box, I'd recommend doing it ASAP.Nickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13508921644099472101noreply@blogger.com
