Totally agree!

Optic, prizm, and Contenders are my preference.

For under $100 I found Donruss to be one of the better budget boxes. If you like set building you can likely pull an entire set in one box. There is an opportunity for some big hits, like the Luka Next Day Auto that sells for $1,000+. I bought three boxes of these when I first returned to the hobby and hit a Bagley Next Day Auto and a Giannis Dominator /45 auto.

Personally, I like Optic/Prizm. Optic you can definitely find in your price range.

Hobby Optic from any year would be decent if you’re looking for base, holos and some color.
