Opening TONS of RETAIL PACKS until I pull a RARE CARD! 😰🔥

I am opening retail blaster boxes (Fanatics & regular) & hanger packs of 2021-22 Panini Select Basketball until I pull a rare numbered card or SSP animal print parallel for our next sports card pack break! While Select has a high ceiling, pulling the bigger cards is extremely difficult. I am setting out to find out how much you need to open to pull one of these rare cards! The highlights will be available in my Arena Club showroom in the near future! What are some other cards we should chase in this series??

[@Kevinu73]

The concept of this video is amazing for the hobby right now!!! I wish you did this for all the major retail releases for football, basketball and baseball. The transparency for hit percentages should be shown at a scale like this for every product with how over printed everything is. Or panini should give the exact print numbers of each release. Thank for you this and please keep these going!

[@RaidersReds]

Agreed!

[@joemarsh2050]

Agreed!!

[@greekcardscollector]

I hope it will ce back to normal even the prices for the boxes... 🤞

[@berretta28]

I agree

[@Screwit87]

Coming from the hockey card hobby, the fact that these aren’t posted is wild to me. Many of the upper deck hockey packs/boxes state the estimated probably of pulling particular inserts so that you can get a real idea of what the odds are. The fact they don’t list these on basketball card boxes just makes a box purchase a blind dart throw.

[@flawlesssportscardsandcomics]

Exactly why I never rip retail anything anymore. Not even close to worry it especially when they doubled the price at Walmart and target

[@jasonking971]

They're $30 at target. That's not double. And it's never been easy to pull a animal print card. It's a case hit.

[@reidsrips]

[@twoprinces6735]

Love this retail style format packman keep this series up if you can but also make sure not to forget the opening until a case hit series love that

[@PackmanCards]

Which case hit should we chase next???

[@mrmachine3167]

Packman: Do we have a lot of space? No The infinite trashcan behind him: ):

😂

[@Gregory12453_]

Yes keep doing retail vids!! Love your content packman👍

[@PackmanCards]

Thanks!!

[@Geddoed]

Love the video, really gives a good sample size of what we are facing

[@robbiepowell5405]

Moral of the story - just buy the card you want

[@delusion7172]

Def do more of these! Maybe some sort of thing where you open a hobby box and then open retail and see how $ in retail it takes to get the same value out.

[@JASONWILLIAMS-de5tg]

This was my fav break video. For us poor folks it is nice to see what we are battling against lol

[@user-ci6fd3gh3r]

True

[@jasonvtsportsguy2692]

Epic rips! Thank you for sharing the love of collecting!!!! Thank you for the opportunity!!! Happy Holidays all!

[@montagecityy]

Love these type of videos pack… I usually buy retail cause I can’t afford hobby so I love to see a huge quantity of retail at once

[@kevinhayes7967]

Wow, thanks Pacman! I love these PSA videos as a reminder to buy singles!

[@GameICY]

I got a blaster of illusions while waiting for moms script to be ready at Walmart. After I ripped it I had buyers remorse 😅

[@blxnkz480]

Yup I opened the same thing, absolutely trash lol

[@simmyyin8040]

🤣 Damn bro, I was hoping for a crazy pull. lmao Had me in the 1st half! Better luck next time 🤞🙏

[@GriseldaBSF410]

Yeah Illusions not a great retail product

[@simon2722]

@@GriseldaBSF410 the base is kinda cool but the hits are nonexistent

[@lebronblew5finalsnottop5ne22]

Illusions is terrible

[@ghettoasiandude]

Thanks for the sacrifice Packman! That was tough but very informative! Congrats on the hit too!

[@PackmanCards]

Thanks! Glad the vid was helpful!

[@ZeeFighter28]

That green paralel Jokic could be worth a lot right now

[@josryngarcia9867]

For every set that comes out i always look forward to seeing your videos and pulls! Keep up the good work man and thanks for getting me into the hobby lol

[@packerlegend1744]

You are one of the main reasons I’m still in the hobby been collecting since 1992/93 . thank you so much 💯

[@PackmanCards]

Love to hear that!!!

[@jcslater310]

I appreciate your show been watching a month now it gives me a idea of what to or not to buy

[@dirtybird1333]

Very helpful. Thank you for all of your content. When do you go live on whatnot?

[@zeekmc8559]

Another amazing and informational bro! You really are keeping this hobby alive!

[@zeekmc8559]

Informational *idea

[@PackmanCards]

Thanks a lot!

[@brandonoliver5304]

You walked so we can run! Appreciate the sacrifice u made opening these packs!

[@lancerfong930]

That was a lot of packs opened. Maybe I’ll get back into collecting cards in the future

[@pfillmontague3587]

Thanks for taking those packs/boxes out of circulation. Hopefully my blaster I open for Christmas has all the good stuff in it.

[@PackmanCards]

GL! 🎄

[@penamike9679]

My boi got a question wats the best way to organize my cards really need help

[@rogerwooten7392]

Lmao I feel a select retail give away coming 🤣 😂

[@PTdoubleOT]

Agreed on the hangers. I know I'll likely never rip a really nice case hit from these but the ceiling is at least there unlike the rest of the retail products. A nice courtside is a decent pull and doable but It's straight pain when you hit a courtside and its a base lol.

[@entropysmith6965]

I pulled a. josh Giddey courtside zebra from a hanger pack, so the potential is definitely there.

[@PTdoubleOT]

@@entropysmith6965 haha I mean yeah, it's at least possible but that's like a 1:1,000 pull brother. Congrats!

[@thisguyiscrazy4419]

Cool concept for video pac, do illusions next chasing a short print king....those cards would be set of the year if there weren't millions of them.

[@chaddcox5360]

This almost reminds me of ripping Topp's Chrome before finding out the short prints were left out lol

[@jshah1961]

Same lol freakin Topps trying their best to be as bad as panini

[@TLew77891]

You have a card supplier on speed dial for extra packs?? Or just have extra on hand

[@NoahMcleany]

Ooof dude, that was tough to watch lol. Good looking out for us out here though. Now send me an entire base set 😂

[@bburn6157]

This vid was a great representation of what ripping retail is really like. I think the blue Cade was my favorite...even though I don't like the blue retail.

[@chiefwiggam39]

Thanks for the content Packman. Question...the volume of cards you have from all your rips, was wondering what do you do with all those commons and/or insignificant cards? Donate? Give to a third party to sell for you? Have a warehouse to store it all? The number of cards you have must be astronomical!! Thanks for your time and content and look forward to your reply.

[@twitchklaymatic72]

I loveeeee the retail videos

[@DNorbs7]

That was tedious but also fun. :) Love the idea of a bunch of Panini execs sitting around a conference table watching this video, just belly laughing like, "Look at him go! He's still opening packs trying to hit an SSP! He refilled the table 4 times!" 😂😂 If nothing else, this video shows just how absolutely brutal (and often NOT cost effective) Panini retail can be. On the other hand, someone could obviously go into the store, buy that one blaster, and hit the AD elephant. Ah, gotta love opening packs. :) PS: Have to agree that it's absolutely unnecessary to put that extra prizm pattern on top of the animal print. Def takes away from it.

[@timbedair4003]

Ive got 4 boxes of these select boxes have not opened them yet I have opened about 8 boxes so far and nothing big at all kinda wondering if i should hold sale or open lol

[@scottscollectingagain]

I’m starting to think that it’s probably better to buy into a hobby break than to spend a dime on Select retail. Thanks for the Rip!

[@briancollects]

Good stuff and great patience. Classic Panini. You finally hit a big one and it has to be massively off-center. Bummer on that, but congrats on finally catching the hit. I was starting to wonder 💭 😂. Peace and Happy Holidays ✌️

[@devalato]

Holy hell, I didn't expect it to take THIS Much to get ONE animal print cards.

[@chadlinfilion4621]

Love your videos so fun to watch

[@vidalibanez4168]

Retail has really been tough, bought a few boxes from select to prizm, chronicles , donruss .... no hits ... again great video let's keep them rolling!

[@ZeeFighter28]

Its crazy how luck can vary so much with certain packs compared to others

[@jasondow274]

Love this! Cause Im not a fan of retail select but the zebras are a nice chase

[@alexmccormick888]

You should do this with the new absolute football looking for a kaboom or explosive

[@entropysmith6965]

That would be great!

[@joshkimmerly5568]

You should do the same thing but with absolute football and chasing a kaboom!

[@andrewharris5851]

I just started the video, AND I CAN NOT FRIGGIN WAIT MAN!

[@laraeraygoza6291]

Awesome content! Keep up the chase!🔥

[@PackmanCards]

Thanks!

Any Topps Stadium Club Baseball content coming? Love the photos in SC!!! Reminds me of photogenic

I'm impressed that the amount of product you had to keep going.

[@bobbylight5165]

chase videos are the best

[@dwiii1635]

Man, they really bent you over and took you to pound town with these packs. Brutal.

[@sill_cards3656]

I don’t know if you have any but I would love too see this years optic football until you pull a downtown

[@alexlisting1691]

I think the next retail chase has to be Prizm, chasing that Red or Blue parallel! Would definitely be fun to watch that opening too!

[@entropysmith6965]

If you’re into football, Absolute blasters are a good chase. They have Kabooms plus you can get low #’d cards and autos.

[@armyatc22]

@@entropysmith6965Absolute is one of the worst retails out there. The Kabooms are 1 in like 5 cases

[@trianglecardcollectors6318]

Wow, the bleakness is palpable. But thank you, Packman, for enduring the pain so that we may be spared. It is truly a blessing that you undertake such hardship for the benefit of others.

[@manimals3329]

My favorite card was the elephant Anthony Davis card. This can sure cost a consumer a lot of money chasing those animal cards. Lol

[@tylerladd4043]

Amazing how off center their "chase cards" are xD feels like something they would pay more attention to lol

[@brickwall2016]

Awesome video. I think I've bought my last box from walmart. Gonna stick to buying singles for now and maybe sometime I'll save up for a hobby box.

[@mattgohlke8216]

I really like the '22 Select Football series, not sure why the die-cuts get so much hate but I think they're really cool. I wasn't able to get very many blasters from that series but i I found it to have a lot of variety, and I got at least one numbered card in every blaster.

[@domnomakeo8264]

Where can I buy stuff non retail like hobby boxes

[@cedwalker5249]

Bro I really just watched this video actually hoping you’d pull one early… 😂 man that’s a lot of opening

[@stevenhayes7455]

What do you do with all of the leftover product? Love the content

You have your link for your showroom on arena club?

[@PackmanCards]

Link in the description! My room is featured on the showroom tab!

[@dachosenone9352]

I enjoy the chase videos and trying the different formats just shows how hard it is to get a short print/rare pull and at least you got a decent player. I enjoy opening retail formats just wish the odds were a tad better especially since my card shop closed recently so now I gotta order hobby boxes online

[@PackmanCards]

Retail definitely needs some improvements or at least lower prices!

[@johnnyeproductions]

Also it is so weird seeing these Blue Shimmers from the hangers and they aren't worth much of anything... yet in UFC Prizm they had the Shimmers but they were FOTL Prizm and they were SSP low numbered! I have a Gold Shimmer /5 Blue Shimmer /7 and have seen some Black Shimmer 1/1's.

[@chrisb900]

My hats off to you my friend for ripping all that. Reminds me last year of myself. I ripped roughly 800 Select cards from different products, blasters, cellos, megas, and I pulled One #’ed card /25 of Jahmus Ramsey which is in G League I believe

[@josephdill3776]

Panini retail is brutal. Although they only make baseball products, Topps has a MUCH HIGHER chance of a good hit and even an insane hit! I pulled a bat down Acuna out of 2018 Topps hanger box for 9.99 at Walmart that’s a few hundred bucks now. And in 2020 I got a frank Thomas commemorative patch auto /10 that I sold for $600. My best Panini retail pull since 2019 was 1000 points 😂

[@jshah1961]

Yep that’s what I love about topps Wander Franco one of one pulled from a Walgreens hanger box! Short prints and variations galore Panini saves their best for hobby by far!

I’ve bought about 6 blasters and 3 hangers and my top card from that was probably a LeBron true silver premier level. Retail is tough. Cool video…I’m glad you are publicly ripping this on camera so people can see how hard it is to hit stuff.

[@philiphewitt1801]

The vendor got all the hits 😡 great video 👍

[@montana01]

Glad you hit a nice one at the end... I used to get retail cases of prizm/optic blasters before things went crazy. You'd hit about 0-3 , #'d per case. Average would probably be about 1; or like 1-2 autos and a #'d card per 20 EA blasters. I assume the odds are even harder now.

[@Dragonballzdeep1455]

Can't believe Target stoped selling cards siting the intense demand and people actually fighting over them. They're retail packs, the hit probabilities are terrible. 🤣

[@jasonking971]

I got a couple fanatics select blasters thr other day and first box I ripped had a tiger stripe wooo. Unfortunately it was precious achiuwa premier lvl lol

[@pyrobully_gaming9970]

Seems like this Select Product is probably a Gamble not worth taking, especially when you pull a desired card and it's way off center lol Thanks for the excellent Video, I was happy you finally pulled it

Wow... Select blasters for UFC is Soooooo much better! I have pulled /5 Emerald Green Mezzanine, Gold Concourse Flash, I've hit 2 Zebras but Tigers seem to be pretty hard to hit from retail for UFC. I'd love to grab some of those Giannis cards from you! I don't PC basketball but I do Giannis! He earned it with getting us the 2021 Championship!

[@entropysmith6965]

I’m sure they made far fewer UFC blasters than NBA, which increases the odds of getting a good hit.
