Cards are waaaaay too much just save your money and buy cards off Ebay. retail blaster boxes have autographs inserted 1 in 2500 packs or something crazy the really expensive hobby boxes have them one per box. I got a "cheaper" hobby box of topps chrome football off Ebay for $50 and completed this years set. The autographs are normally sh!tty even if u pull one. topps Chrome had one rookie signature per box five players were good the othe 30 sucked @ss. I got Gerald McCoy lmao.

I would need another job to get serious about ball cards anymore.

I've had luck with Topps, Donruss (Zenith), Tristar, and Upper Deck. Now all there is is Topps. The other guys are no longer allowed to sell MLB or MiLB cards.

I've pulled several certs. Just the other day I was in a dollar store and was looking to pick up some Topps cards they were selling. They had sold them out but they had some 2008 UD Documentary packs. I picked up two packs and pulled an Aaron Laffey cert. That doesn't happen very often...

2008 Topps (both the base set and the updates) had a GU card in every box (the ones they sold at Target and WalMart). I wound up with a ton of those cards and traded most of them for base cards. Recently I pulled a Troy Conyers (USA 16U) jersey from the 2010 Bowman Draft rack pack. Don't know anything about him so I'll have to hold onto it and see if he gets drafted some day and how he turns out. I've also gotten two or three of my GU cards signed.

Granted, most of the certs and GU cards I have pulled are "nobodies," really. But it's still nice to have, I guess.

I have been collecting topps baseball cards since 2004 and over 6 years, i have only pulled 1 autograph(2007 Anibal Sanchez No-Hitter) and 1 jersey card(2010 Topps Prince Fielder Peak Performance). I normally buy the $20 blaster boxes with 81 cards and loose packs. So I was wondering, what boxes have you guys had success with from autographs and relics?
