personally i very rarely buy singles. i usually buy hobby boxes of topps products only. but my intent and priority is different. i love the nostalgia. Going to the baseball card shop and buying packs to open brings back some good memories. i like ripping wax with my kids and hope that they will also grow to enjoy the hobby. For me, the negative ROI and sunk cost is worth it because I dont collect to invest or make money. I do it purely for the fun of it. I also only buy Topps products because they still hold the license for MLB. I just dont like the way that unlicensed baseball cards (Panini) looks when the players dont have the logos on the uniforms. That part is just a personal preference.
none of these are upper end product. if you want to get into higher end stuff, sky is the limit. Top of the food chain is probably Topps Transcendent (not sure they still release this product) which is gonna run you $20K+ per box. Topps also releases other premium product that will run you anywhere from $500-$2K per box. If you want to hunt for prospects, you want to go with Bowman or Bowman Draft. If you want a guaranteed auto, most hobby boxes will guarantee a "hit" card (auto or a patch card). Some sets like Topps Archives guarantees an auto but its literally 1 card per box.
For a 6 yr old I probably wouldnt get into higher end product cause its going to get real expensive real fast. I always recommend that collectors first getting into it stick with the flagship product (Topps Series 1, Series 2, Update) which is affordable and has history, or go with Bowman if they want to prospect chase.
