POLL: Better investment - PSA 10 '92 Stadium Club Brett Favre, or Unopened '92 Stadium Club Series

I'd "put my money" on the wax, but if it were really my money, I'd be waiting for 2006 UD Exquisite FB and holding onto the unopened stuff... find a friendly dealer and you might be able to buy in at $450 a "pack" and turn it around in a few years for at least $1500 on the open market

Buy a boatload of the Favres ungraded. No doubt that 30-50 years down the road they'll all be worth something.

Yah no doubt.

Cards are like gold!

BTW, how's those 100 count Dave Magadans doing ya?

Hehehehe

The unopened '92 Stadium Club Series 3

Modern rookie are very fickle. When the player is hot, the rookie cards are hot too. After HOF induction ( 5 years after retiring) they are out of the public eye and new hot cards come along. Prices actually drop and level off at some point. I cannot think of a modern rookie that has risen or near came anywhere near the HOT time of the card. I think I would take a 10 card lot of Farve sell 9 later on a hoping to break even and own one. I do have an unopened box of 1991 Ultra. That should yield a few Farve rookies.

I'll go with the wax. The individual Fav-ruh cards will be sought after by Facre fans but the whole Series 3 wax will attract both the Favre cards and the set builders who appreciate the tough-to-piece-together sets. Add in the graded versions and the set registry and I'll say the wax has a better chance of increasing in both pereceived and actual worth.

Bjork,

No brainer, the wax is a better investment. If you do buy the wax and break it open, i would buy every Darren Woodson RC you could find in there. I am trying for a 10 after sending in several that received PSA 9's.

Keep my email address: ssgunnip@yahoo.com and I will buy them if you do it.

I think it would be close to a tie. The wax seem hard to come by, but so are the PSA 10 Favre's. I would sure love one for my collection.

Only 300 cases were made and 16 boxes in a case. Total was 4800 boxes. Each box had 3 to 5 Favre Cards. I had a case in 1992 and that is want I was told by the person I got it from. It was not offered direct.

Neither.... why not spend your money or some nice vintage stuff?

Anything from the early 1990s was mass produced, regardless of what people claim. If you want an investment, you should spend your money on something you do not see everyday, something that appears on eBay once every 3 or 4 months... then you'll start making some money.

Good luck.

In most cases I would agree but when it comes to this product you are mistaken. It's tough to find and that's a fact.

Don't trust Topps production numbers. While they may not have pulled a Upper Deck (high series French hockey was probably produced in 10 to 20 times the quantity they originally publicized), they were known to have printed insert cards in later years than they publicly claimed (remember the suit where a man bought over 150 of a certain player's gold refractor that Topps had said was less than 150 produced).
