Sealed product

I will admit straight up, I have a REALLY hard time holding on to sealed product. Boosters, boxes, whatever. I love to see what the lottery has to offer. I think its one of the reasons I enjoy draft, finding cool stuff in the piles that go around. 

Today however, I have finally acquired an auction win from a month ago. Took long enough, right? I paid a grand total of about $30 US (winning amount plus fees plus shipping) to get the following:

BOOM!

Not too shabby if I do say so myself. Now- what to do with these fine pieces of sealed product?

First I point to the current values:

Onslaught booster pack goes for $14 a piece on TCG.

Onslaught 'Tournament Pack' goes for $44 on TCG.  (I might point you to the fact that there are only 9 available to buy as of writing this)

So the perceived value currently for my sealed product is a grand total of $72. The value of sealed is potential. Not what actually is in the pack, its all about potential. And why is Onslaught valuable right now? Original fetchlands! Bloodstained Mire, Polluted Delta, Flooded Strand, Wooded Foothills, and Windswept Heath. In that order, are the most valuable individual cards in the entire set. There are 6 other cards worth more than $10 each as well.

My thought, right now, is to bid my time and trade my $30 investment in sealed product for some cards I need at a later time. Who knows, the value might be increased by the time I find the right trade partner. 

And no, I am not playing pack wars with Onslaught boosters.
