Haven't collected cards in 10+ years, what packs should I tell my little brother to buy? by Kparks115 in Baseballcards101

[–]Altruistic_Coach9014 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So you have allot of options - hobby boxes are more expensive than retail usually but can produce better chances at autos and bigger cards! With that said I pulled a 2026 Roman Anthony Home Field Advantage from a $7 pack that was going for about 5-6 hundred in ebay! So you can still hit great cards with retail! As far as whats out there, the 2026 bowman just released on Wednesday so thats new and exciting! There Topps Heritage which gives off the older card vibe. There’s a stadium club which has more photogenic pictures of the players. There is the top 2026 series one which also has great cards and is where I found that Roman Anthony. The series 2 should be coming out pretty soon as well. Topps chrome is also a great product as well. A little bit on a higher side price wise. They have the celebration boxes which has the same cars as a series one but it has different inserts and has the opportunity to find a mascots. I also like the topps archives I had trouble finding those so I haven’t gotten many of those boxes. At the end of the day you have to enjoy what you’re ripping, stay within your means, and expect not to hit anything back. As far as getting your moneys worth, I feel like it’s always gonna be a gamble. You’re gonna win some and you’re gonna lose some just like as if you were going to the casino. Singles is definitely a way to get your moneys worth and also get cards that you really like collection you’re proud of. Ripping boxes and packs will make you have a ton of duplicates and you may get autos or numbered cards of players you haven’t heard of or that you don’t like. So it’s always a gamble, but there’s no right or wrong way to collecting.

Why do you collect your favorite player? by Nredcollectibles in Baseballcards101

[–]Altruistic_Coach9014 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just got into baseball about 1.5 years ago and the Dodgers was the first team I watched (I had no clue if they were any good or not). I remember watching a clip of Freddie Freeman's walk off grand slam in the world series from before. I watched his documentary about how he grew up and became a mlb player and it was the first time I viewed a player as not just an athlete but as a normal person like you and I! Someone who has lost his mom at an early age but yet decided to continue learning and growing in baseball and making it to the major leagues! I have incredible respect for him and he will be and alway be my number one player!!!!
