Looking to buy a box
Within the next week or 2 I plan on buying a sealed box of basketball cards. I have roughly around $100 to spend. So I ask you all, what do you
think I should get? I've been eyeing the Topps Treasury set, but I tend to like Upper Deck stuff a little more. (Not saying I won't buy Topps
though). For good pulls and what not, which set would you recommend I get?

I wasnt exactly sure if you wanted a box from this year but if your looking 07-08 or 08-09 id say 07-08 upper deck spx... idk though
maybe if you want to go slightly up to around 115 u could look at sp game used

I'd possibly be willing to go up to around $115 or so. I'm looking for anything from 07-08 or 07-09 really.

yea if you want a lot of hits id go with sp game used, i think theres somewhere around 12 hits per box, so two hits per pack... it would be a fun box
to open and you get some quality cards

Do not buy Treasury you will regret it. Trust me. I would personally go with either SP Rookie Threads or SP Game Used For that amount.

ya treasury is nice but unless you get a money rip card or a rip card with a patch or logo man or auto and depending on who your rookie auto is you
prob wont make your money back.

Hrmmm
Well here is my opinion. Ihave had awful luck with Artifacts. Bought about 5 boxes and havnt really pussed anything great. With 100 or so bucks you
can find boxes of 2008/09 Topps Signature Basketball Hobby Box. one auto per pack and 1 A list auto per box. A list consisting of. Larry Bird,Chris
Paul,Magic johnson,Dwight Howard and Paul Pierce. There another 12 or so i dont remember. But if you love autos i recomend that box. But if your like
me and like cool looking cards 08/09 SPX. Can get a nice Rose out of that and countless other great cards.But goodluck and let me know what ya get.
