Box Break - 2007 Upper Deck Future Stars Baseball

I've never purchased this product before, nor really heard much about it. For under $60 a box and promising 4 rookie autos, I thought I would give it a shot. Overall, I'd say it was worth the price. I didn't hit any of the huge rookies which would make this a no-brainer but I did score one extra autograph (Kinsler) and was happy with the serial numbered inserts. This product has no game-used items (or at least none guaranteed) but so what, this product is about rookies and I would recommend it as an affordable attempt at scoring some rookie gold. For example, as of this writing the Dice-K and Joba Chamberlain rookies are both going for around $250 each. :-) My big rook was Chase Wright, currently listed at $15.
