Yeah I’m in the same boat, I started getting into collecting hockey cards right before 2020 and didn’t know “hobby” boxes were a thing until I started watching this channel in the middle of 2020. I only got boxes at my local Walmart occasionally. I stopped after I seen how high prices are for hobby, it’s a fucking joke. I bought two fat packs on a big sale a year ago and that was it.

@@odeszaa..I just look for singles, Eg. Hall of Famer rookies(no matter the sport), or guys who’ll be in the Hall that are still playing. If you’re looking at slabs, look around 7’s to 10’s. There’s plenty out there for decent prices. Even base cards of Hall of Famers are worth it. With new cards you’re paying Extra for the card stock.

Yep, it was bad enough when I was paying $10 an autograph in some football draft pick blasters in 2016 and now I’m supposed to pay $20 US a Young Gun? Totally ridiculous. The only thing I will buy will be series 2 retail as sit on it for about 10 years for Bedard and the rest of the crop. I have no competition where I live for hockey retail. If the crop pans out then the unopened tins and blasters will increase in value and if he doesn’t then I’ll open it all up. I did this with 15-16 retail but it also was a lot cheaper.

For certain years, yes. Especially when the tins were $25 and in some cases $15 on clearance. I bought a ton of 15-16 series 1 and 2 blasters and tins when they came out and they have gone up in value substantially because of McDavid. Even 19-20 you could buy entire tin and blaster cases for less than $200 on close outs and those are going up because of the Hughes boys and Makar. The problem is this years tins will not, they are already too high for and SRP and the Young Guns are all carryovers with limited potential. Series 2 might be worth sitting on for 10 years if Upper Deck doesn’t raise the SRP because of Bedard.
