With so many card producers around, you should expect prices for packs of cards to vary a little bit. However, you may not expect the scale of variance we see with hockey cards. Some packs can cost as little as $1, with high-end packs costing $100 each.
If you’re paying a high-end price, you should expect to receive more content, inserts, and more valuable cards. High-end packs tend to include jersey cards, autographed cards, and rookie cards. Cheaper packs will usually only feature base cards. As such, investors should focus their money on more expensive packs and immediately store any card they receive that has the potential for future value.
