I am doing a 26 regular case super slow break. Also have 5 jumbo cases coming, I will try and sell them and the redemptions on the bay. If the redemptions and cases sell as I think they should, I should have a price point of about 500-550 per regular case. Should be a pretty safe break and keep me entertained for a few months.

Will be a bit different than last couple years as the rookie set is 1-55 and prospect set 1-165 vs 1-110 & 1-110 last couple of years...

Most of the guys that bust 20+ cases for themselves only buy into Bowman/Crome/Draft..... They then turn the cards on eBay and such for a nice profit if they are organized..... It takes practice and patience but Bowman usually is a decent money maker when bought early and in bulk and then turned around quickly..... Put 15K on the credit card, bust, flip and pay the credit card off..... At least that's how I see it happening ......
