I recently experienced something similar. I went through many cards I own for the first time in 10 years. I did so after seeing the Kobe Bryant rookie cards jump astronomically in price and knew I had an absolute mint rookie of his. It brought in renewed interest into collecting as well.

For that UD series 2 box you bought...If you get a Kaprizov young guns, sleeve it and throw it in a top loader right away. Sells for $350-400 on ebay today. The hobby is so hot right now that even getting a card professionally graded will take at least 6-9 months and those companies jacked their prices as well.
