i would say draft...its at a good price and has a solid checklist of autos, 2012 bowman is too expensive now to have a good chance of recouping ur money back, if you would have gotten in early it prob would have been easy to though....bowman chrome has way too much Harper hype and is overpriced because of it....I dont think gypsy queen will have the same level of demand as last years and its tough to pull enough solid cards to try to get ur money back.....so that is my analysis lol

well idk about that....there will be so much attention to 2012 bowman once it comes out that it will prob drive the price of draft down cause all the demand will be focused on 2012 bowman

Not always. The ultimate factor of driving prices of cases up or down is how the player is selling/performing.

2011 bowchrome: Went from ~$650 a case to $924. Why? Because Lawrie, Harper, and Hosmer were selling HUGE. Also because the Harper super allegedly hasn't been pulled is a factor.

The Non-Auto has been pulled but not the auto super.

More yet, the non-auto that was pulled was from regular Bowman. The Non-Autoed Super, the Autographed Super, and the non-auto Canary ALL have allegdedly not been pulled.

Good luck on trying to regroup your cash from 2011 BDPP. A case of base brings 175.00 so you have to hope you get 500.00 in autos and color. If you plan on holding and selling the cards as players hit the bigs, that's a different story.

You mean a singular case? Good luck with that.

I suggest going with the set with the Japanese phenom Do Som Research is in.

one case of anything is a BIG gamble. any type of prospect product is best with multiple cases. increase your odds on color and up the player ct. lots. then wait for individual players to get hot.

there's almost no rip quick and profit on products that have been out for 6 months.....

Do Som has an amazing heater. Some might call it unreal.

I would say this is a pretty fair statement. I just opened a case last week and all the crap I got (not including sets which hopefully will bring $50) came out to about $200. Fortunately I hit a Gold auto which should allow me to break even
