Why is Rd2 retail almost the same price as the hobby boxes? I have seen the retail boxes selling at $92 a box when hobby is usually $100 to 110.

I want anything 1/1 of Machida will trade or pay cash!!

Isn't the #88 base exclusive to retail? If so that might have something to do with it.

Thats what they said with series 4 and the first case i bought I got eight /88 base cards hahaha. I wouldnt think that is the only reason I mean it sure wouldnt make me buy them when I can pay an extra 10 to 15 for a hobby box.

A Rd2 retail box just sold on ebay for $55. I think the price you saw is just someone trying to pull a fast one on first time buyers, hoping they don't know the difference between hobby and retail. When I first got into collecting I remember buying retail off amazon and thinking I got a great deal. Then I came here and figured out what hobby was, haha...

Also, I know Rd4 wasn't but Rd2 was pretty good about keeping the base /88 in retail only. I have opened at least 2 1/2 cases of Rd2 hobby and only pulled one bronze. 
Selling BJ Penn collection!

Lots of 1/1's, rubies, red autos, triple threads, dual autos, etc.

PM me if interested!

Collecting MOT /88s, Base Autos, /25 Autos, and Dual Relics
