When it comes to chase cards, learn the strategy of patience. I’m not sure if you’re old enough to remember the Lombardi Trophy Hologram chase card from Pro Set. My father and I chased the hell out of that card. “Only a thousand of them were made!” We never hit it. Now, that experience between father and son was a huge turning point in collecting perspective. If you want a chase, wait for the chase to be over, and buy the prize. This doesn’t mean you can’t buy a box for the experience of the chase, but never continue to chase in expectation. Shoot your shot, but don’t exhaust your mag.
