The thing with "case hits" is they are just on average for the entire run. For all we know they make mega special cases that every single box has a kaboom and then they can have 20 cases that have 0 kabooms and they still average out to 1 per case.
@entropysmith69659 ай бұрын
A case of hobby boxes is around $8k, with 1 Kaboom per case. A case of blasters is around $700 so, I’d bet there is 1 Kaboom per 10-12 cases of blasters or, 1 Kaboom per 200-240 blaster boxes.
@Jtevkicksandcards9 ай бұрын
You gotta figure in all the other value in autos and stuff pulled in hobby to account for that 8k. In blasters thats oretty much all the value sonit cant be 8k worth of blasters man

The sad part is that I ripped a ton of 2022 Absolute Gravity Packs last year (you know, the ones that sell for $1.25 at Family Dollar) and those were 20x better than those blasters. I pulled a numbered Kenny Picket that sold for $35 (back when Pickett was valuable) a numbered Brock Purdy that sold for $40, along with a numbered Kyler Murray and Lamar Jackson that fetched a little money. Those gravity packs from Family Dollar have the exclusive Yellow Parallels and I pulled a lot of Yellow Parallels of big name rookies that I was able to sell for a few bucks. Each pack costs $1.25, has 5 cards and guarantees that you pull 1 rookie and 1 yellow parallel. And then you can get lucky and pull the numbered cards. I would take those all day over what I just watched. Sadly though, the 2023 gravity packs don’t seem to be quite as good as the 2022s when it comes to pulling numbered cards or inserts. You still get a guaranteed rookie and yellow parallel though

These all came from target online so they were all random. Think that’s the best route since a case isn’t guaranteed.
