If you had $250...

If I had $250 to spend on cards, I'd go with 2 nice boxes, maybe 1 04-05 Finest and an older Upper Deck box? Something like that anyway.
You can't beat busting open boxes. There's always a chance of finding something good, never forget that. Just like with my 01-02 UD Pros and Prospects bust. Odds, 1 game-used per box, with the possibility of an auto. Out came a Jamison jersey card. I thought it was all over and I was ready to sell the rest of the packs on eBay. Then it got the better of me and I busted them all open to see if I could pull a decent RC (odds, 2 per box). Then out comes a Kobe Jsy/Auto BV $400! With only a few packs left, out comes a Chris Mihm Gold Jsy/Auto no'd to 50!
Moral of the story? Never religiously follow odds on the box, just like that Sweet Shot break from Ruckers. To further that point, most of you know about my Kobe buyback auto pull from 1 pack of 01-02 Upper Deck Series 2 on this forum. That's right, 1 pack purchased in a lot from US eBay left over from a box break that was probably passed around several times before getting into that lot.
Sorry for going off topic too, lol. Still taking credit for pulling 2x Kobe Auto's in my lifetime so far, and it ain't over yet! I hope, lol.

Carlos, Col did them for 80 cents US ea for a while here with the 32pt ones. I was getting about 50 a month for a while there. I don't know if that price is still current though as it was a case for us guys.
Not much use doing a group buy though as the shipping doesn't get any cheaper and then you have shipping around Australia once here. I got the large global mailers with 25 in them each as it was the most cost effective method.
