Hit bucket lists via opening wax

I know many people have quit opening wax, but I still dig at it on a regular basis because that’s how I hobby.

Does anyone ever get into a product and keep buying until they get that hit? Could be a case hit or a specific insert, something that will cause you to keep going at a product until you’ve had that experience of hitting that certain insert.

I was able to achieve two recently - I finally hit an auto out of 2022 Allen and ginter chrome - chipper jones. These are supposedly one per case.

Also finally hit a retro pmg out of 2021 metal universe champions (yes, I was still opening this product, lol) - Shane wright - these cards still look awesome in person.

It’s funny, usually when I pull that specific type of hit I am looking to experience, I’m done with the product and go on to the next challenge.

I usually open Allen ginter every year and then stop after I finally pull a rip card. Some years, I hit one in the first box I open, and other years it takes 5-6 boxes. I always get the boxes from different sources, 1-2 boxes at a time so I don’t “cheat” and spend too much at once by getting a whole case anymore.

Anyone else have these insert hit bucket list goals?

I still have yet to pull an Ohtani auto of any kind and other bowman chrome autos that I desire, but I have pulled superfractor autos, cut autos and other hard to pull inserts in the past.

I have no desire to pull a tacofractor, however.
