Don't get discouraged and keep busting. Auction off the hits and sell inserts, parallels, and sets as a lot. It's been my experience that it's pretty easy to get at least 75% of your money back if not more. The cases are so cheap and there are plenty of collectors of this product out there.

Assuming you got these for around $20 a box and you get 4 hits per box, you really can't do that bad.
Plus if you open the whole case, maybe you can make some base and insert sets.

Even at $20 a box, I think these are really bad buys. I did my research the last time you said that and didn't like the results at all (This is not a flame directed at you in any way)

A majority of the auctions in completed listings on ebay merely just don't sell. At all.

I got the case from Blowout for $424, technically a little more I guess since I used up $290 from COMC funds for a $250 blowout store credit)....but I wanted a bust a few and then try and sell off the rest of the boxes on ebay...I know I will take a loss on ebay for each box....but figured if I can lose only $2-3 per box, Then it was worth it for a shot in the big baller promo....

yeah, it should be 10-15 a box. i remember when this first came out at 80 a box and i was like no way can i make anything back. i can get some up and comers like dustin lynch or jon pardi for like 2 bucks each. did grab a chris young auto /25 for $3 at a card show, so that was pretty good.

considering all blaster boxes of sports, wwe and star wars are $20 each with only a guarantee of 1 relic or patch card per blaster with astronomical odds at the really good stuff....not really that bad of a buy 4 hits for $20, with fairly decent shot of hitting something worthwhile

there are so many boxes out there.. unless you were selling a full case, i would bust them all. a nice miranda will cover anywhere from 4-9 boxes of value depending on how good the miranda is. Don't get discouraged, as you said you'll only lose a little per box, but you're really paying a smaller fee for a chance a greater prize. keep busting.

Sold one box on eBay for $30.99...after fees and shipping, i actually made $2.59 on the box. ..i may end up selling a little cheaper to get more sales though....

Now if i only lose about $60 on the case I'd still be happy that i got the chance in the promo

I chose the same case for the Baller promo- Still haven't decided what to do with it, as I really planned on just selling the boxes but I would like some of those autos for my PC as well... plus it's just too fun to open them. I'll probably just crack the whole case since I don't currently own ANY of these cards at all.

It isa fun break...I actually thought this had my best chance of getting most of my money back, esp at the current price...I know I balked at this product at $50 (still bought two boxes at the 2015 National from blowout though, one of the mystery packs from panini got me an autographed Tracy McGrady baseball cap)....but I can't imagine buying this at $100 per box...ouch....

If I have any of the autos you wanted, just let me know...still working through ebay prices of what I already pulled....

The best part for me is that I'm not a huge Miranda Lambert fan, so if I get lucky enough to pull one I'm not tempted to keep it. I'd really love either the FGL Dual Auto or the Big & Rich dual, but I'm not sure how often those combo-autos fall, whether there's one per case or not. I'd be satisfied with maybe some single FGL autos, a LeAnn Rimes, and a Rucker for myself. Maybe a set of the Perry autos too. Not expecting a profit, but most will probably be sold off. Adding some PC stuff and getting a tournament entry seems worth the price of admission. Really wish Randy Houser or Rascal Flatts had been in this though, not sure how likely another set will be.

no - not one per case.

each of my last 2 sealed cases - i got one multi signed card per case. there are 18 different multi signed cards plus 3 colors of each. so essentially 54 different at approx. 1 per case
