Buzz's Pick Six: Bargain-priced boxes I'd bust right now ...

Have you seen the latest cool cards from a new release? With so many options for collectors of all kinds arriving every week it's possible you haven't. That's where Buzz comes in -- well at least on one brand you'll see here from time to time in what we're calling Buzz's Pick Six. Simply put, here are six cards from a new arrival that seemed interesting to this collector and we think they might interest you, too.

This week's list: Bargain boxes I'd bust right now ... for a few reasons.

TEN PACKS, TEN AUTOGRAPHS
The Box: 2008 Razor Signature Series baseball box
The Price: Click here
Why it’s Buzz-worthy: With the MLB Draft tonight, I figured I'd give this one a nod both for the power of prospect cards in everything when it comes to baseball these days and for the reality that not all draft classes age that well. This one has an autograph in every pack and a number of guys who made it to MLB and then many who didn't really make much of a mark. Your most-notable autos here at this point are Giancarlo Stanton (in his "Mike" days) as well as Buster Posey, Charlie Blackmon and Eric Hosmer. Others that have been of note at times? Tim Beckham, Pedro Alvarez, Yonder Alonso and Matt Wieters to name a few. An autograph in every pack makes this one fun but it can be a bit of a bummer if you don't land one of the bigger names ... but at the low-price volume still makes for a decent rip and you can find parallels and dual autos, too.

Keep reading for five more interesting items in this week's roundup ...

CHASE THAT INK
The Box: 2013 Panini Beach Boys hobby box
The Price: Click here
Why it’s Buzz-worthy: These boxes have big potential if you land autographs -- seriously, click here and check these out -- and that should be enough to get you to consider ripping here. The autos are not impossible, falling a few times per case, and there are other rarer inclusions here that can also pay for a box. I have not checked the prices on inserts and parallels -- they had been cheap in the past -- but if there's somebody out there looking to finish off one of the serial-numbered sets or other cards that don't drop as often (some of the mem cards might be SPs based on when I looked in the past) there could be other cards that might surprise price-wise all these years later. (This one has made my picks before ... it recently resurfaced in our Bargain Breaks section for me to remember its power.)

UNIQUE SIGNERS
The Box: 2018 Topps US Olympics & Paralympic Hopefuls hobby box
The Price: Click here
Why it’s Buzz-worthy: There are a number of signers here who are found nowhere else and there are also enough A-list names that could pay for a good chunk if not all of the box at the current price. Recent sales of snowboarder Chloe Kim's first autos here are over $150 for a card limited to 60 copies and there are other versions that are tougher to pull than that. (And asking prices are high, too.) There aren't a ton of these cards out there on eBay, either, and that could pay off if somebody is looking and finds yours. The risk here? Yes, there are some cheaper autos to be found right now but releases like these always do a lot better around the time of the events where people are looking for new winners or past names. Asking prices for Lindsey Vonn autos -- she's on the box -- are as high as $400. It's a low-risk kind of rip with a strong upside compared to a lot of bargain boxes out there these days.

CHASE HITS ON THE CHEAP
The Box: 2007 Press Pass Elvis Is 24-pack retail box
The Price: Click here
Why it’s Buzz-worthy: This one might not hit your musical tastes -- it's not really mine -- but there are a lot of people out there who do remember The King fondly and appreciate a lot of what's in here. Beyond being a simple and affordable gift option, this is also a box that has some strong rip and sell potential with its inclusions. The first time I ripped into one of these long ago, I landed a mem card and a printing plate -- that was an A+ box -- but past breaks have typically yielded a hit of some type for me than not. (It's not statistically a guarantee based on the odds but they are found often.) There are a number of memorabilia cards with Elvis-worn swatches and then autographs can include band members and past co-stars such as Nancy Sinatra, Barbara Eden and Yvonne Craig.

THE INK FLOWS HERE
The Box: 2018 Topps WWE Women's Division blaster
The Price: Click here
Why it’s Buzz-worthy: If you're a regular reader here, then you know I've busted a ton of these boxes (all years) because the autographs can flow well here at a price that's below the price of a hobby box. You won't get an autograph every time but they aren't impossible finds at all and that can undercut the pop of a hobby box if you have some luck and go 1-for-1 on ink here. (Hobby boxes guarantee ink and a second hit every time.) Parallels are also often found here, too. Unlike other WWE blasters that rely on autographed Relics for their ink chase, these include standard autos in their bonus packs ... and there are several notables with autos to be found inside, including Ronda Rousey's first WWE ink. Parallels have sold for as much as $400 recently on eBay.

SIMPLE WITH POTENTIAL
The Box: 2019 Topps Big League MLB hobby box
The Price: Click here
Why it’s Buzz-worthy: Yes, this is a cheaper brand but it's one that can still pack autographs and numbered cards within its wrappers and those things with the lower price make it a break with up-side if you get lucky. If not, it's one that should satisfy one's collector side, too, if it's there. I had some solid results with a box of this one in the past and it's always one to consider with key rookies on the checklist, a meaty base set, plenty of inserts and ink. Go look at the eBay auto listings ... whew. Among the autographs in this one? Cal Ripken Jr., Juan Soto, Kris Bryant, Mike Trout, Nolan Ryan, Ronald Acuña Jr., Shohei Ohtani, Vladimir Guerrero Jr., Fernando Tatis Jr., and even the Houston Astros' mascot, Orbit. (He didn't cheat.)
