[@ofbreaksandtrades]

Wow! Teal explosion looks awesome!and Jabari Smith to end it! Fun rip sage!🥰

[@SageTheCollector]

Definitely a good explosion to end on! 💪🏻

[@ofbreaksandtrades]

@@SageTheCollector I also bought fat packs from card giants. I'm just waiiting for it to arrive. I hope you can also check my channel. I would really appreciate it!. TIA!💕🥂

[@Bangpaulxu]

Cannot wait to get back t9 the states so I can be buying boxes and packssssss. Great video as always Sage!!!💯💯💯🔥🔥🔥💪💪💪

[@nickolasharris8569]

Nice to see those Chet cards! Congrats on 4000 subs!

[@SageTheCollector]

Thanks!

[@BigJBasketball]

Not bad! Definitely not easy to pull a teal explosion of a top 5 rookie!

[@SageTheCollector]

I'll take it 💪🏻

[@gamedaylegends515]

Nice fatties! The postcard inserts are beginning to grow on me! Thank you for sharing Sage

[@SageTheCollector]

Check out the holo versions. You'll really like them then. 😉

[@jooc415]

Been enjoying your videos friend, thank you for posting. Curious to hear your thoughts on favorite year for Hoops? Opened my first packs of 21-22 and that was fun!

[@SageTheCollector]

I dig '89 thru '91, but I'm biased. Most modern designs look pretty similar. I like them all except for 2020.

[@hawkman_cards]

I’m a new sub, hoping to get to you’re level sometime soon. Great content!

[@SageTheCollector]

Thanks! Welcome to the channel!

[@CMP_18]

Just pulled a Andrew Nembhard auto out of one of these! Was so happy to see an auto that was an actual solid role player.

[@SageTheCollector]

Nice!

[@jonathanlupfer5262]

So, just a quick question. I just started collecting a little bit of NBA Illusions, should I continue with those or go for something like Optic Cello packs, Hoops, or maybe some older? stuff like Ilussions 2021, which I can still find at retail.

[@SageTheCollector]

My answer is always: collect what you like. If you like Illusions, keep collecting it.

[@mattrawlins3571]

That Paulo rookie ink is such a sick card!!!!!! If you are lucky enough to pull a /25 that could be iconic card!

[@jeffreyachaibar5438]

Do you always hit bull players parallels? 😂 great video

[@SageTheCollector]

I wish! That was would sweet. 😁

[@jvkicktensai]

Nice I bought a box of these on ebay at 110$ kinda bit pricey for me hahaha. You deserve to have more than 4k subs Sage.

[@SageTheCollector]

Thanks, JV! 🙌🏻

[@jonathandavid9389]

i'm just starting my short break now with cards while i'm paying the expenses for my upcoming basketball season . i would like to pull the dyson daniels explosion for my pc as i'm aussie Y& collect aussie players for my pc

[@SageTheCollector]

Snag one off eBay. They shouldn't be too pricey after a month or two.

[@nickolasharris8569]

I'm the opposite as you when it comes to "many base cards". It just takes up too much space. I'm not sure if others feel the same, but I feel like the longer I collect I veer more and more towards fewer cards and more expensive packs. I have a bookshelf full of cards, and am discouraged to do anymore organizing lol

[@SageTheCollector]

Yeah. I actually purged about 30k cards a few years ago. And I'm sure I'll do it again fairly soon.

[@andrewrossi7164]

Nice rip Sage, would definitely spend $7 a piece, congrats on hitting 4k subs to brother 👍

[@SageTheCollector]

Thanks, Andrew! 🙌🏻

[@ShabbaMoneyBags]

4K all day

[@SageTheCollector]

😲

[@MrModgling]

Do you use PSA or SGC for grading?

[@SageTheCollector]

PSA all the way. Even if SGC slabs weren't worth a fraction of PSA slabs, I'm just not a fan of the tuxedo slabs.

[@official315]

do these have any 1 of 1 cards

[@SageTheCollector]

No. Just orange explosions #/25.

[@townsenddyer]

First three packs 🤤😋

[@sharpcornercards]

I’d definitely pay $7 for a pack, especially with so many rookies. The fire hands coming through this time with all those top rook parallels!

[@SageTheCollector]

🔥🙌🏻🔥

[@ShitzusRule]

where did you get these fat packs at

[@SageTheCollector]

Card Giants

[@808nyc]

walgreens 😉

[@aaron2a82]

I dunno how, but Ive bought 2 packs of retail, pulled a purple Paolo, they $12 AUD here and fat packs $15 and just today bought my second pack got Paolo teal explosion, I seem to go through seasons I get lucky and seasons no luck, but since 2012 Ive really enjoyed buying a few hoops packs

[@SageTheCollector]

Nice! A teal Paolo is a sweet card!

[@everythingcollectibles]

I would say that that Jabari is worth more than $10, especially of how hard it is to pull any of the top guys. You are too generous sometimes! 😉

[@SageTheCollector]

Yeah, I just had to take a guess, since there are no comps yet. If Jabari was having a better season, I would have valued it higher.

[@shidlord72]

I got a teal explosion of Shaedon Sharpe out of one of these fat packs

[@SageTheCollector]

Nice

[@sly-1429]

Yes I would pay 7 for these fat packs!!!

[@timbo1992]

Pulled a teal explosion lamelo ball in this pack

[@SageTheCollector]

Nice

[@bradmccubbin1569]

I would spend $7.00, they will probably be $9.99 in my area.

[@stratman3771]

So I pulled a significant auto card. I can’t seem to find the odds of pulling that.

[@SageTheCollector]

Panini doesn't release odds, so we can all only guess

[@varnaizsolt22]

this pack is more than 20dollar in my country in a card shop nearby me.... where poeple avarage earn less than people in usa. i cant buy it here sadly, not worth (Hungary).

[@SageTheCollector]

😕

[@dominiksallai6139]

Lose or win?

[@SageTheCollector]

You tell me 😉

[@808SSCamaro]

Definitely not worth it 7 bucks if you getting double deandre LOL
