For the football, the entire gamble is likely on those 3 autographs and 2 numbered cards. Whether they make up the cost of the box is beyond me, but thus is the life of the lottery ticket buyer.

Combined they have to be "worth" an average of $120 each and unless Walter Payton is signing who or what is going to
return anything near the cost?
Like you said may as well throw 600 towards a mega millions lottery.

Based on the prices offered online at card stores, that is a bargain.
Whether it is a good buy is a totally separate question.
I'm not a huge football collector, but that's not even a premium brand is it?

I think you're right , 600$ for a box may now be the new "mid-range" product , still it's a hard-worked weeks pay for me, ironically i'll likely have some singles from that product within a month.

There is so much other things to spend money on.. such as dentist work for the kids, perhaps buying some low value ETFs? Paying down your debt?

Those who can plunk that kind of money down seemingly don't have those cares or worries, either they've discovered the fountain of cash(are doctor or lawyers)
or live at home with the parents.

I am on a tight budget so I have given up on boxes, I find it easier to just buy the cards that I want. Sure I miss the chance of a huge hit, but I don't have a whole lot of luck anyway. Panini has basically priced their collectors out of buying boxes.
