Just opened 2 Series 1 Mega boxes and am not exactly happy

[billybgame]

256 cards each box, so 512 cards total. Granted, way too many inserts, per usual.

Still need 50 cards to complete series 1. Did not get the following:

27 Trout
62 Judge
100 Goldschmidt
150 Acuna
206 HendersonG
250 Rutschman(R)
330 RodriguezJ

Is that some craphouse luck or what? Got one turqoise(blue/greenish) 1988 Eddie Murray, but it's scuffed on surface. Inserts very ho hum.

Design is ok, but wow, those are some of the most valuable cards of Series 1 that I didn't get out of a hell of a lot of packs.

Not real happy with my purchases, to say the least.

Bad luck to say the least...........The inserts are insane..............Might have a few that you need if you'll list them out...........Mike

I'm a set builder really.....not much into inserts. Maybe should change my way of thinking though.

I'm just kind of stunned at the cards I need to complete the set. Some of the top valued ones I'd guess.

Hey! I have most that u need: 27. Mike Trout Angels, 62. Aaron Judge Yankees, 150. Ronald Acuna Jr. Braves, 250. Adley Rutschman Orioles RC/rookie cup and 330. Julio Rodriguez Mariners Rookie Cup. I can post it as free cards and u need to confirm it so that I can get your mailing address. Best regards, David PS Rodriguez is the around $4.00 to $6.00....and the most expensive veteran is of course Mike Trout.

Let me know if u still need them and then I'll post it as free cards. Best regards, David

Due to the rising prices of boxes during COVID I quit buying boxes and really have no desire to now aside from opening a few packs here and there to scratch the itch. I build sets too and it's much easier (and cheaper) just buying lots in bulk and working off those.

At a show last weekend I picked up a lot of about 600 2021 and 2022 Upper Deck AEW base/golds/inserts for $15,which is about 1/2 the price of a blaster. How can you beat that? Each set only has 100 cards lol.

Box prices are going down you can get Chrome blasters for $26 on eBay and there are a good handful of hobby boxes you can score for under $100 dollars generally between $69-$89 dollars which compared to this time last year is cheap atleast in my opinion.
