    Everytime Mike posts that pic I think about torpedoes. Really, they don't sag and they don't tune in a satellite. Definate torpedoes man ....

    After opening fresh cases of a lot of different stuff, I honestly believe that a wax case will yield more Gem Mint cards per capita than the others, assuming the cases have been handled equally. However, this can change during certain years/manufacturers. For instance, Donruss cards from the 80s are usually better coming out of rack. Same with 89/90 Fleer basketball. However, I think for the majority of product from 80's and earlier (Topps), you will get more 10s with wax. Here are my overall rankings:

    1- Wax
    2- Rack
    3- Cello
    4- Vending
    5- Factory sets
    6- Grocery racks
    7- Cut card cases
