It’s interesting to listen to you walk through your rationales for what you bought. I looked at the prices and thought, sure if money wasn’t an issue that would be fun to buy and rip/hold. Looking forward to seeing some of what you bought in the RCEB. Have a good one and thanks for sharing.

Thanks Neal, appreciate it. Every June/July I start planning/saving for November. But like you said, bulk buys of modern retail aren’t for everyone. You need to have a plan for how to monetize it, which based on the product can range from difficult to very difficult.

Issue with Blowout is they wont take MVP buybacks in mail. Crappy anti collector move by them. I still went ahead and bought one 22 Update Jumbo at $175. Hard to pass up at that cost. Dave and Adams though I managed to get 23 Chrome Jumbos and other stuff with the buybacks. 18 Update stuff too pricey for me to go get. Thanks for sharing your thoughts. Still luckily have over 80 boxes of 2018 Bowman boxes btwn blasters wnd Megas stashed away.

I saw they made that change this year. In-store only. D&A would be my preferred place to shop, all else equal. Customer service is solid. Good stuff. I picked up some 2017 TCU also which is solid (small checklist) but lots of good autos that are expired reds.

Actually it was 2022… first year of Bowman NPB though with licensed 1sts, and with guys that could be hyped/relevant 3-5 years from now. An alternate MILB almost. The downside (other than no autos) is the talent is heavier on pitching.

@tonyballard925611 ай бұрын
Thanks for info, I picked a lot of blaster items in small quantities. Noticed your observation that most 'good' deals were not supported by prevoius sales and I'm guessing when I try and sell Blowot will compete with me which is strange but guess thats how they keep prices within range.
@Philmington11 ай бұрын
2018 TU I especially liked because I believe Acuna and Soto’s markets have room to rebound in the short-term… and of course Ohtani isn’t at an all-time-high anymore Unrelated but what also motivated me on the 21 NPB TC is that D&A had it on their buy list at the time for $245 (BO was selling it for $100)
@tonyballard925611 ай бұрын

I think regular hobby is a better buy at $100 if you’re opening it. But if you’re considering that then hangers at one-sixth the cost of hobby might be your best bang for your buck. When it comes down to it, all are good prices depending on what you’re using it for.
