no sense sitting on retail or hobby, Topps produced plenty more of Round 2 than rd 1, and you can see that already with hobby boxes now in the $80 range, especially if Uncaged comes out on 2/24, like expected( I know, I know) I would def. sell the retail, you only get 1 relic OR 1 auto, and the odds of autos are pretty high, then again, me and my brother bought 8 packs out of a rummaged through retail box at target and pulled a Rich Franklin auto, so you never know.]]> Sun, 13 Dec 2009 09:54:44 +0000 http://www.buymmacards.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=358&PID=2611#2611 http://www.buymmacards.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=358&PID=2608#2608 Author: Thallion

Thanks for the advice everybody.  Getting the retail boxes was an accident in the first place.  I didn't pay attention to the fine print about it it being a retail until the day after I bought them and they had shipped.  One auto and one relic for 24 packs seems ridiculous.  I am going to have to fight the urge to open up some of them though, because I haven't cracked boxes of cards in a long time, much less UFC cards.  My most regrettable thing is that I missed round 1 entirely.  I didn't know about it until the prices blew up.  Anyhow, I do hope that I can turn some sort of profit somehow with this round, but there seems to be a huge quantity of these compared to R1. 

To answer allan's question, my favorite fighter is without a doubt GSP.  I didn't jump on the bandwagon either.  I have been pulling for him for awhile.  Some of my other favorites are Griffin, Machida, Couture, Arlovski, W. Silva, Huerta, Guida, Penn, and Faber.

I would re sell your retail and try to gain that money back.   Sit on your hobby.  

Retail boxes are horrible IMO.   You might complete a base set currently selling for $10 or less.   You get one hit and that could end up being a card that has a hard time getting a $1 bid.  

There is always luck, but retail sucks.   I'm selling my boxes for $50 even though I bought them direct from Topps for 69.99.   You will never pull 69.99 out of a box unless you have awesome luck.  

Hobby boxes contain a chance at the Nickname Red Autos and could possibly hold their value, but with the rate of new releases, I doubt it.   I definitely think they are worth more as lottery tickets than cracked crap.  

I speak strongly because I've probably invested more than anyone I know.

Hello!

I am new to the site, and I absolutely love the sport of MMA.  I am most familiar with the UFC, and I am slowly becoming more familiar with the WEC.  I live on the coast of North Carolina, and I am a die hard Tar Heel fan.  (I know we are struggling this year.)  I decided to join the site, because everyone seems very helpful and some of you seem very business savvy.  I look forward to sharing my experiences with you all as my first boxes of Round 2 are on their way as we speak!  Speaking of which, I was wondering if any of you had any advice as to whether or not I should crack all of them or leave some sealed.  I definitely plan on opening the two retail boxes, and I have four hobby boxes coming.  Any advice would be appreciated. 

I also am beginning to collect UFC memorabilia here and there.  I have two different certified autographed pairs of GSP fight trunks, and a glove signed by Griffin and Bonnar. (Also Certified)  The big kid in me has the entire Series 0 set of Jakks UFC action figures as well.  Although I am a huge fan, I also am looking for a possible profit with some of these things in the future. 

I am once again looking forward to sharing the MMA experience with all of you.

Thanks!
