I don't buy it anywhere but a store, when I happen to get lucky and find some.

I know the 2001 UD Vintage is worthless, but I like it anyway.

Instead of turning $200 into $20 you turn $200 into $800

Default Let’s see one of your INVESTMENT Wax Boxes - I’ll start....

‘18 Topps Stash

Technically I count the Chrome Update Pink refractor set as sealed along with the 3 base chrome update sets. A few paper update sets as well with 185 gold bars.

“They don’t make any more of these, once they are opened, they are opened. “

Hah, I appreciate the offer. I’m pretty content with hanging onto it. I picked it up about a year ago.

The thing I like about unopened wax is the mystery.
ANYTHING can be in an unopened box of cards. Once you open it the mystery is gone and you’re stuck with a bunch of cards that could have little value.
I assume tatis sapphires are in each of my unopened boxes, a Zion silver in my prizm gravity feed, maybe even a pulsar, and there is definitely a super in my finest flashbacks. That’s the appeal to me.

This thread is validating my thoughts on putting some resources in '18 Update blasters.

Years back there was a member GemMT (or something similar) who bought like 50 cases of 2012-13 Flawless Basketball upon release and provided pictures. Wonder whatever happened to those cases.

Old picture there were 130 packs, a bunch underneath the ones on top, sold about 30 since then. So 100 left and I’m liking these at $200 but there’s more room to grow.

Question for the group, are you buying everything flagship once it comes out? Or are you hanging back until a product demonstrates its potential value before buying it?
