Do you like Buzz Breaks? We recently launched 12 in 12 -- a series of a dozen breaks of past wax boxes and wax packs in a dozen hours. This is a single-pack break in that style -- but not the launching of a new 12 in 12. (We'll perhaps have one of those later this month. Click the logo below to see the previous posts in the series.)

The pack: 1983 Topps Greatest Olympians
The cost now: $8
The cost then: Less than $1

With 52 autographs in every box -- as well as a posh party invitation -- it doesn't take a lot to see the dollar signs inside each $25,000 box of 2016 Topps Transcendent Collection baseball cards.

Those invites alone get a good chunk of change back (details here) and each case's 1/1 Kris Bryant autograph using one of the 65 historic Topps designs commands some, too. Those cards have sold for as much as $2,182 on eBay (so far) and all seven sold have gone for at least $1,000.

Meanwhile, the asking or bid prices in current auctions are over the $1,000 mark in all but one instance and range as high as $7,250 for those in the historic set.

But the priciest find found inside one of those 65 silver briefcases? It's much more impressive.
