Hobby Boxes vs. Retail
Collecting sports cards is a great hobby. You may decide to pursue collecting your favorite player, favorite team, try to build sets, or collect cards as an investment. No matter what reason you decided to collect cards for, you will, without a doubt, buy packs of cards. The thrill of opening a pack and finding your favorite player in a low #'d insert, autograph or rookie card is bait that I've yet to meet a collector who could resist taking. You may even up the ante by opening boxes or cases (but if you're opening cases, you probably aren't going to gain anything by reading this any further!).Packs and boxes of cards come in several forms. I want to take the opportunity to add to share what I see as the two main options for packs and boxes!
RETAIL
Retail packs/boxes are found in larger department stores (e.g., Target). They may be in large glass cases, under lock and key, or they'll be slung all over the shelves, with basketball packs inside Pokemon boxes! The boxes themselves are usually NOT sealed, as most store policies require the sales associates to open the boxes before they put them on the shelf. Usually, the only sealed boxes you can get in retail stores are called "blaster boxes" - boxes that have been sent directly from the factory to the retailer and explicitly state "for full box sales only - do not open". This is good. These boxes have advantages, including "free packs" you won't get by buying the individual packs from the opened boxes. Generally, no one working in the store will know anything about sports cards and will not be able to help you make an informed decision on what to buy.
HOBBY
Hobby packs and boxes are found in hobby shops, at card shows and I've even found them at some smaller retail outlets. Usually, they will be well organized and someone there will be knowledgeable enough about the products they carry to help you determine what you might want to buy.
