🔥RETAIL VS HOBBY🔥 2023-24 Panini Select Basketball Hobby Box vs 8 Retail Boxes

[@justina3489]

**Community questions* *What would the value range be for numbered gold rookie cards? *What apps or resources/tools do you use to find the most accurate value information. What do you do with all your cards that are in that couple dollar value range? *Is the only option is listing them individualy on ebay or a app? *Last question thoughts on collx app personl preferences and why?

[@BobTheCardCollector]

Some good question!! Hoping the community get's those these!!

[@BobTheCardCollector]

Pinned the comment to get some reactions :)

[@FailureWillFollow]

I use eBay sold to find value on stuff. As far as CollX I use it, but mainly for cataloging purposes. They don’t accurately show card values.

[@BarkinGoodStuff]

That Thompson card won it for hobby this round. That's a nice card. But I'm still picking retail overall because it's nice to be able to pick up a blaster or mega and have a chance for at super nice hit. Panini did a nice job with Select retail this year.

[@BobTheCardCollector]

Yeah Retail at the same price is difficult to beat!! But for this round I would indeed go with Hobby. Thanks for sharing!

[@ShofsCards]

That Thompson card is too cool to not be game worn 😭

[@BobTheCardCollector]

Yeah that is nice!! Rookies are never game worn. Unfortunately 🥲🥲🥲

[@Kapitalas_]

Last card magic. Very beautiful patch. Congrats.

[@BobTheCardCollector]

It really is!

[@red0332]

Awesome rip... To be honest I will go with retail than hobby.. It's more fun to open lots of boxes 😊😊😊. The thrill and excitement are real❤❤❤. Thanks for sharing Stay safe 49:20

[@BobTheCardCollector]

Thanks Red!! I understand that. Nothing better than ripping packs 🤪🤪🤪

[@petermitchell7824]

Huge opening. I really like how you also included a few blasters on the retail side. It gives the vid more variety.

[@BobTheCardCollector]

Thanks man!! I appreciated that :)

[@DatHobbyGuy319]

Love the rip! I’ve opened some and I’ve already pulled 4 Victor Wembanyama’s and some of them more rare! Select is definitely the best retail product of the year! Also shoutout to you for showing love to Sage the collector not only because I am bulls fan too but he is one of favorite channels to watch who got me interested as well into getting into the hobby!

[@BobTheCardCollector]

Thanks!! And wow, that is amazing!! Sage is the man!!

[@tjmcleroy]

I use 130 point and center stage to price, and enjoy grinding out the $2 cards on eBay to get some money back, always spend way more than I sell! Thanks for good content.

[@BobTheCardCollector]

Nice! And thanks for sharing!!

[@TN-hu7dc]

Would have been a cool experiment to grab half boxes from Walmart and Target. I heard Target's boxes are more loaded at $5 more

[@BobTheCardCollector]

I would have love to do that but I don’t live in the USA 🥲🥲. So difficult for me to do

[@brandonbaker6629]

I paid 35 for select blaster at Walmart. Hit red prism wemby lodestar.

[@AnimaUnda]

U mean Walmart 5$ more expensive with less cards but target r loaded

[@TN-hu7dc]

@@AnimaUnda Speaking specifically about the mega boxes

[@youtubenchill2423]

Nice rip!! My first select Wemby was also a premier level. I have two more mega boxes waiting to be opened. Can’t wait! Ps: I watched sages video other day and you gave him so many bulls cards for his pc. I think that’s very cool that the two of you have built a friendship through KZbin and card ripping. Keep making fire content and being yourself my man. You’re awesome!

[@BobTheCardCollector]

Yeah, the community has been awesome! And Sage is a big inspiration. Thanks for sharing man!! Happy to have you on the channel. Good luck on your future rip!

[@Apollo-xb8cm]

Bob you create amazing suspense in your videos, your enthusiasm for the hobby really shows! I saw Sage’s video with the package from you, it was awesome of you to do that. Plenty of people just take take take from the hobby, it’s refreshing to see someone giving back!

[@BobTheCardCollector]

Wow, thanks! Thank you so much for saying that. Really motivating for me to keep going on this track :)

[@bobvonk4873]

Best way to start my morning, watching you doing a fun rip. Hobby takes it because of the more numbered cards i think. Had some good cards in total and the Luka scope is cool for your pc

[@BobTheCardCollector]

Lets goo Bob!! Yeah this was a really fun rip. Would you go with retail or hobby?

[@bobvonk4873]

[@saucypulls]

so i just heard u are from Europe so these mega boxes are exclusive to target and the ones that are shorter and a bit longer so i suggest u get those. ive seen many boxes opened and those are by far wayyy better. now the reeves card is a tri color green white pink

[@BobTheCardCollector]

Thanks, yeah.. I can only get the walmart ones in Europe. Which sucks!!

[@SageTheCollector]

Daaamn, that was a lot of packs! 😮 Retail was looking pretty good, but then that gold RPA popped up for hobby! 💪🏻💪🏻

[@BobTheCardCollector]

You got that right! Hobby coming in clutch with that Last Pack Magic!

[@M.L.Anobody]

You made it more clear to me about hobby and retail. I liked how you’re not bias as most I seen prefer hobby. I do think retail is more affordable.

[@BobTheCardCollector]

It was really close for me! But the gold Amen was the thing that put hobby over the edge

[@nicholaslubke]

Interesting to see the hobby base is different. I actually like the blue of retail more, plus it's a nice mix of getting something good for the price point. Great pull with the jersey from hobby though.

[@BobTheCardCollector]

Yeah it is an interesting comparison. Retails has something nice for it!

[@fnf.collects]

Thats some dedication 😂👏🏼👏🏼🔥I think hobby won this one cause getting a gold Amen from it is sick and also the Porzingus ofc🤣💯

[@BobTheCardCollector]

Hahah yeah! The Amen was sick for sure!!

[@APylar1]

Subscribed to your channel after being a Sage watcher for a couple years. Love this stuff.

[@BobTheCardCollector]

Thanks!! Appreciate your sub and hopefully you enjoy my content too!!

[@joncaruth4006]

Awesome video! Hobby definitely took it. Those retail packs were ruff. I opened 4 megas and got a wemby tri color concourse true silver concourse wemby blue cracked ice wemby and a pink cracked ice rookie revolution wemby numbered to 99. So I think I would still go with retail though

[@BobTheCardCollector]

Wow your retail luck was amazing!! Congrats on those hit!!

[@michaelbest1648]

It's always ok to pause and check the back of the box. Green white and purple is the name of that parallel. 🙂

[@BobTheCardCollector]

Thanks Michael!! Yeah should have check the box but did not want the video to take longer

[@kennydv544]

Hobby for the win! Select always one of the best products each year, though I liked the design better last year. Nice Joker hit too😊

[@BobTheCardCollector]

Yeah it is a good design for sure!

Great comparison and rip Bob!I jave to stick with retail.Ive opened 12 megas and 4 blasters.ive hit 3 gold(the best being Antman premier)2 Elephants(1 was Lauri)and 3 Autos(okoro was the best 1 😔)Also,a Wemby of each level except Courtside.doubles of a couple and the retail blue/holo

[@BobTheCardCollector]

Thanks Josh!! That sounds like a solid opening!! Antman gold is always great and Elephants are cool too!

[@FailureWillFollow]

Skunked on all select I’ve tried so far. That insert you were getting stuck on is just a tri-color prizm, or a green white purple

Nice! I’m just getting back into collecting and I’ve started this channel to showcase my boxes breaks. Subscribe and join the journey! 😄

[@AnimaUnda]

Yea u n everyone mama

[@altonT]

3 orders of 10 mega boxes total. 1 Wemby base concourse, 2 Wemby concourse blue ice, and a Wemby mezzanine blue ice. 2 pink ice, a mid range vet and a Scoot thunder lane. No auto's. Don't know where you get your retail but I only paid $550 for my 10 megas.

[@BobTheCardCollector]

I am in Europe... the mega boxes are 100$ per box here - blaster $50 and Hobbby $700. So that is why my price are a bit higher than the US.

[@breakinballers]

I may be incorrect, but I believe that the red, white and blue cards are called "tri-color", and the green, white and purple cards are just referred to as "green white purples". However, there are numbered cards that come out on a "teal white pink". That looks nearly identical to the green white purple so you need to be wary of the subtle color variations. Hope that helps... or further confuses you. ha ha. Cheers brother.

[@BobTheCardCollector]

Thanks bro!! Yeah you are correct! Thanks for sharing, I was blanking in the video 😂😂😂

[@seanfoley7855]

I'm always going with hobby over retail. It's just a better bet on hitting a life changing card.

[@BobTheCardCollector]

Yeah I am the same! But have been appreciating retail more and more

hope ill be able to pick up a blaster at some point. maybe ill get lucky.

[@BobTheCardCollector]

the % of getting 6 vs 1 doesn't really matter. Just need luck as you mentioned! Good luck!

[@DatHobbyGuy319]

Big difference between the target and Wal mart mega! I think if these were 6 target megas you would have seen more action

[@BobTheCardCollector]

Really!! How can I see the difference? I don't live in the US, so I guess we might only get Walmart here

[@DatHobbyGuy319]

@@BobTheCardCollector are there not Target’s where you are located? Target gives you two more packs so instead of 8 you get 2 out of their megas. It’s red cracked ice instead of the orange flash which the red cracked is more desirable and I’ve just overall seen better things come out of Target for Select. I literally just uploaded a video opening Target select and hit a SSP of one of the top rookies from a Target mega yesterday

[@michaelong05]

You should try the Target retails! They are also good!

[@BobTheCardCollector]

I want too!! But I live in Europe so difficult to get them here :(
