A Self-Christmas Present WWYD?

[Middies31985]

Over the holiday break (teacher here), I am going to relax away from the Covid petri dish that is my classroom by opening up some product. Probably spend around $400-500

I am curious what you think I should rip...

2019 Bowman Value Packs (12 packs) - $180ea.
2019 Bowman Mega - $70ea.
2020 Bowman Mega (4 Boxes) - $235
2020 Bowman Jumbo - $300 @ LCS

What combo would you do?

I have also considered just buying the cards I want outright, but the rip is the fun part. Love the checklists in the Bowman Mega stuff and pulled a Jasson auto from some 2020 that I found in the wild this year.

I am a big fan of that 2019 class though with Wander, Julio, Marco, etc... That's a great checklist.

None but the singles you want

If your LHS is selling 2020 Bowman Jumbo HTA boxes for $300 then you should probably buy every one they have. Unopened Jasson Dominguez product is worth its weight in gold

Forgot to type Draft in there. It's Draft Jumbo.

Their Bowman Hobby and Jumbo are both pretty close to release prices. Just a little bit lower.

What card are you hoping to pull from that group? You can probably buy it for $500.

I know I can buy it, but I also would like to rip some packs and I am willing to take the chance on some stuff. I just really enjoy opening quality product.
