I also know that I'm less likely to say "Hey, I bought a blaster and it sucked!" I think the main reason is that those times when nothing good comes out of a pack or blaster is when I kick myself and ask "why did I waste that money?" Do I really want to write about that?
Well, after reading about Night Owls hot box Heritage blaster, I thought I'd share the contents of my latest blaster.
That's my haul for $20 plus tax. Two short prints and one blue variation. I'd categorize that as a failed blaster. Don't get me wrong, I like this set. I want to collect this set so almost every card was new and needed. The thing is, I could get the base set 1-425 for the same price as a blaster if I was just a little patient.
I still had fun opening the packs though. That's always fun.
I had this same discussion with Ethan at Playing with My Cards last week. Why does anybody buy packs when if you just wait you can buy whatever you want for a fraction of the price.
ReplyDeleteI need to bookmark this post. That way... I can pull it up the next time I'm thinking about paying full price on a blaster for this stuff. I think you have the right idea... I might just hold off and buy a 1-425 base set instead.
