is it worth it buying a mtg box
If you don't have a good base of cards I think it is worth it. If your buying boxes your almost better off buying at least two on a small set like Worldwake but on Core sets you are better off buying 3+ if you plan on getting playsets of everything. I buy boxes for a card base to trade with and give people things they need.
So small sets 150 cards or less 2-3 boxes.
Large sets (Core Sets or large expansions like Rise of the Eldrazi) 250+ cards 3+ boxes.
Yay full play sets!
Price wise it's worth it too. (If you buy them online, or find a store that is smart about box prices.)
Booster ~ $3.79 (Based on various game stores, Walmart, and Target)
Box (36 boosters) ~ $90 - $100 ($2.50 - $2.78 per booster. Price based on various online stores.)
Some "local" gaming stores will try to sell their boxes for $125 - $145 so that they don't lose as much money. (Since they usually make more money selling individual packs.)
