It sucks for those of us who like to rip. Prices have been expensive for a long time, but at least singles prices were a reflection of box prices. It makes zero sense to even rip retail these days with how affordable singles are. I enjoy breaks, but they definitely keep the product moving and the prices up.
@huxbux3 күн бұрын
The shame of it all is that opening boxes has always been part of the hobby. It's part of the experience. It's mutated into a star in the sky for a lot of collectors. Kinda sad.
@SlammRecords3 күн бұрын
I agree with you. “It is what it is” is the most overused phrase in sports. You are nearly guaranteed to hear it and/or read it in every player (or coach) interview! Other phrases that are overused and need to go away: “At the end of the day…”, “kind of”, “kind of a little bit”, and “just”. Watch a postgame interview and you will hear “just this, just that, just whatever”. “Just” is the new “uh”, “er”, or “um”. Honorable mention for the phrase “the narrative”. It’s not a narrative, it’s an Opinion.

Great breakdown. With Prizm slated for a week before Christmas, these cards about to tank in value. At 300, i think Mosaic would be a no brainer. At 450, need a lobotomy after buying a box.
@huxbux4 күн бұрын
Consider my frontal lobe penetrated! 🤣 The singles will tank, but wax prices will not. Funny how that works.
@kevinmaurer78063 күн бұрын
$300 is still ridiculous as you will only get about $100 in cards.

I got 2 of the FOTL boxes at the last dutch auction price drop before they sold out. I opened one of them last night and pulled a Jayden Daniels Storm Prizm, a Justin Herbert Signature Highlights Auto and a Tyreek Blue Prizm /99. I agree with you that they are certainly not worth the $700 secondary market price, but at $450, I'd buy 2 more if I could.
@huxbux4 күн бұрын
After watching a few FOTL boxes that were highway robbery, I'm hard pressed to pay anything for a box.
@michaelfiasco55514 күн бұрын
@huxbux Yeah, I've seen some pretty brutal youtube reviews on these as well. I'm hoping my luck holds when I rip the second box, lol. I can say that the 2 FOTL exclusive swirls I pulled were nothing special, but the other pulls more than made up for it.

Talking about Mosaic, I think it’s hard to earn your money back even in full case PYT breaks, not to mention hobby box break. In my opinion, only mosaic blasters are worth to rip.
@huxbux3 күн бұрын
It's hard period. I have a hard time telling anyone you can get an equal value back ripping wax. It doesn't happen often enough. It's like a casino. You might win once or twice, but in the long run, the casino is bleeding you out.

But WHY do they include 10 different types of numbered cards in hobby and 2 types of numbered cards in retail? It's not like anybody but panini themselves decides which cards go into which product format.
