WHAT A DISASTER! THANKS PANINI! | 2023-24 Prizm NBA Hobby Box Review ($1000 Per Box)

[@gregwilliams855]

That was beyond brutal. You mentioned what happened in your Wednesday night break, but you truly can't believe it until you see it. That was the worst box of Prizm Basketball hobby that I have ever seen ripped. You didn't even get big names on the color/numbered cards. I'm impressed by the composure that you showed during the video. You are a true professional in the hobby. After the NFL & NBA licenses are gone, Panini is going to be last place in the US trading card industry. How hard is it to create good will with customers in the hope that you can retain them after Fanatics acquires NFL & NBA cards by at least providing a decent product? I think once Panini lost the Fanatics deal, the powers that be just decided on a massive cash grab until they can't keep the printers running anymore.

[@pJ-us2vl]

Prizm has always been really bad with nothing in most of the boxes but this year they really messed them up missing cards, damaged cards, I did an FOTL break and 1 of the FOTL boxes had 0 FOTL in it .

[@gregwilliams855]

@@pJ-us2vl I think I saw a FOTL break with 0 FOTL too. The "find 2 auto graphs" wording is also pathetic. If you are running short on autos because guys signed with Fanatics, just release the unsigned signature as SSPs like they did with Donruss Basketball. What the heck is going on with dirty cards in Prizm breaks too? Embarrassing.

[@BigT42l994]

Nah if anything, sealed boxes will go up. Especially if the players pan out

[@TrongNguyen-dc8kq]

It looked that way to me. You got ripped off by Panini.

[@BigWillyScott7]

Thanks!

[@AcmePacks]

Ive seen so many boxes missing autos. Absolutely ridiculous in a $1k box.

[@mrbob8618]

You can blame that 1 on topps fanatics. They're the one that print the cards and their factory. Set the packs up for panini.

[@BigWillyScott7]

I haven't seen one have 2 autos yet. Thats just effed up. Has to be false advertising or something

[@BigWillyScott7]

Acme, your blaster Boxes were better by a mile that this!! One blaster box compares to that box

[@mattgohlke8216]

It says 2 autos per box, it's false advertising and they are legally obligated to make good on it.

[@djmedo17]

i think panini it going to made much money as thy can till 2026 ,, than is TOPPs the hero with the licence !!

[@vancitygrizzly2993]

I've been watching lots of Prizm basketball hobby and FOTL rips, and people are getting screwed left and right. Missing autos, missing FOTL numbered cards, and lots of damaged cards. It's insane. Thanks very much for ripping these terrible hobby boxes so the average collector doesn't have to. We appreciate it.

[@pJ-us2vl]

I just said the same thing and I did a 3 box FOTL break and 1 of the boxes had 0 FOTL in it lol

[@peternguyen7962]

Everyone is getting panini’d, I almost brought a FOTL but glad I didn’t…. Would have just resell the sealed box.

[@slowroc]

@@pJ-us2vl😮 this is frightening

[@boldon]

Same with me - fotl with no fotl exclusive inserts. I called panini and they offered me 150 points ridiculous!

[@BigWillyScott7]

Nevermind my RPA Tank Dell to 10 that if I'm lucky may get in 2026. No one can logically if trying to make money recommend a single Panini product moving forward at this point. This is 100% just raking in as much dough as humanly possible with the time remaining. Its Bullshit that they put out a Checklist of EXACTLY Stating what is available and yet they are not and never will be. I'm not sure what the recourse should actually be but only way they'd get hit is with a class action lawsuit across all of their products. They should but for all of us customers, not getting a fair compensation regardless. The redemptions is mind blowing. How can there not be a time limit of the 6 months or you get cash back for the running FMV of that card at the time of opening? i don't get it how they aren't getting massive pressure for this BS.

That was so bad my dog even said "Rough"

It’s 2025 am so happy they losing the license they are totally stealing from hard workers and kid

[@MrWheezyE420]

If you think they are going to do any better then I have a bridge to sell you. Fanatics ruined the collectable merchandise market, they are going to do the same with trading cards.

[@peralta2912]

So your ok with cards being stolen and back doored, sold on eBay, having dub 1 of 1 Topps is so great lmao

[@marioblaauw5760]

And you are okay with paying $1000 for nothing..okay to each there own@@peralta2912

[@Dj_________]

Yes the box was brutal, but your video editing had me laughing out loud several times🤣. The clips you added, and the timing of it all was spot on 👌 pure genius if you ask me

[@softaco3088]

I've seen multiple videos of missing autos in these boxes. Panini fudged up with this release

[@DrPepperPat611]

Same! I don't know if I've seen a video yet where two autos are pulled! Fucking rip off

[@kintarooe4539]

I always saw two autographs, but they were trash.

I’ve seen like 20 boxes of this product opened now and none of them have returned more than like $150. Straight robbery 😢

[@chasejackson7248]

You can't get robbed of you let them do it.

[@benzosbreaks-bam]

I definitely wasn't buying prizm hobby for $1000, but jeez, that is brutal.

[@jeffmcdonald269]

I've watched several of these being opened and none of them have been good but that was brutal.

[@djwatts44]

Finally someone who agrees. I watched so many breaks on what not and laughed at how bad the pulls were. What a ripoff of a box.

[@MrMlev123]

RGL please do a follow up video to document if Panini reimbursed you or offered to replace the autos in this box. I’d love to know.

[@Mutedx0331]

People keep buying, Panini keeps scamming lol

[@DarrenFerguson-mw1tk]

Thank fuck Upper Deck hockey has thier shit together this is bullshit

[@Mutedx0331]

@@DarrenFerguson-mw1tk yeah and the crazy thing is, this isn’t the only situation where this has happened, 2 on avg I would still think you’d at least get one auto card.

[@michaelhobbs3924]

@@Mutedx0331 Exactly, and I honestly don't know they can even say two on average, ton of boxes with zero autos, and I'm yet to see a single box with 3 or more.... so its not even on average, its more like "up to 2 auto's"

[@chrisritter8552]

I’ve heard a lot of people saying they got shorted autos, I’ve got 2 from blasters and they’re both second year g league guys

[@Knockoutsportscardz]

I'm not a fan of prizm , but that's disgusting at the highest level. A hobby box should never be that expensive unless your guaranteed 3 autos atleast!! Just a kick in the nuts!!

[@jingtianzhao3961]

But autos is not the chase in this set anyways, should guarantee 20 numbered cards imo

[@streetreps6837]

autos arent the chase, theres like 3-4 chase autos lmao the only way im buying this is if its 250 per box NO MORE

[@Knockoutsportscardz]

I was generalizing hobby to price to autos. It makes it worse when the big chase has no auto!! Just a lackluster product IMO

[@pJ-us2vl]

Prizm is always a couple junk autos, some numbered cards of nobodies and a ton of base. Even the good base autos like Paolo last year are some of the cheapest autos to buy and this year no good rookies even have autos.

[@doonside5061]

wow i was gonna spend on this box but if the autos aint guarantee whats the point? but can the reversal be true and get more than 2 autos per box?

[@Murphyyyyyyyy]

Thanks. I’ll definitely not be opening this in Hobby. Definitely contact them FAST

[@pJ-us2vl]

Less than $50 in cards for $1000 box looks like every Prizm box I've seen the last 3 years besides the missing autos they usually gave you atleast 2 junk autos.

[@RambisRants]

Was having a terrible Friday, I can see I’m not alone unfortunately…speechless Run speechless!!! You’re so entertaining and hilarious about it, but man that hurt even me my man…🤦‍♂️💔

[@itradingcardscollectibles8595]

You deserve an 👍 and a medal 🏅 for just ripping this box and sharing with the community. Thanks for sharing

[@mattgohlke8216]

The video intro was so positive and like " let's do this! " 🤣. Ben Simmons /75 🤣🤣🤣. Lololol I love the self loathing you feel after getting ripped off by Panini 🤣🤣🤣

Run Good has the funniest comedian in the hobby!!! Deprived sleep for 72 hrs with a diminished bank acct. But we always come back for more. Lol😂

[@vincegarcia914]

Wow! You just pulled the No Card-No Auto! It’s so rare that it doesn’t even exist! 😢

[@alexgauthier2448]

Topps will send you hits if you are missing them. Does panini do the same?

[@droach1985]

I saw a comment somewhere and the poster said he saw a break that had 4 autos in 1 box. So many reports of no auto boxes its crazy.

[@masterjiraiya224]

I work at a local lcs, and a gentleman that comes in at least 3 times a month maybe more. Bought the new recon hobby boxes. And he said he didn’t get any autos in his either.

[@howievision]

That is brutal. I saw another box that was shorted an auto. I think it was Pacman s FOTL?

[@nunzi83]

Missing autos is just ridiculous. Nothing gets me more angry. Thank god you have everything recorded. I open a ton of product and don’t record anything bc I rip for myself. But missing your hits is beyond frustrating.

[@andrewg5672]

The math is there's only 10/10,000 possible cards that may value higher than an 80$ pack. That's gives you a 99.999% chance of losing, and 99.9% chance of losing very badly. I have never seen a product so outrageously priced in my life. Think about it 80$ could get you nba2k the game, budgeted at 100million and tens of thousands in manpower hours. Here 80$ in cards you get a somewhat constantly repeated border frame design, with an overall 20cent per card material cost. It's a product with 100x less the effort at 100x more the price. I think it's amazing how the human mind works to justify a literal scam. I urge people to not buy into the hype and pay what is fair. 7$ per card reveal is just not fair to anyone at all

[@specialtycomics]

The Writing was on the wall long ago Retail dropping before Hobby?

[@omgula]

cant you send the vid to panini and they have to reimburse you? as it says 2 autos guaranteed?

[@adrianwilson7174]

What was approximate value of that box, I would say less than $100 ?

[@jaypizel2494]

Can you submit that video to panini and get compensation?

[@LogansRunningMouth]

You are 100% right. Unacceptable Panini. The box I ripped on my YT channel wasn't much better but at least I did get 2 Autos. You can have them because that was stupid. Can we all just band together and boycott Panini??

[@SpadeBlinkYT]

But some series 2 hockey it releases on March 6 and pull that Connor bedard rookie

[@CF_Fun_Rips]

Ouch! I live vicariously thru people who can afford these super expensive boxes!

[@davidvega8811]

Reason 258 why panini has to go out of business 🙏🏽🤮

[@bizzigies]

That's crazy! I took my kid to the LSC and we domed one box yesterday. We got 0 autos also! I didn't think anyone would believe me. I checked 5 times, then counted cards and there were 144 there. We did get a blue Wemby /199 so I am far from complaining, but I thought the auto thing was crazy.

[@pJ-us2vl]

You should open a quality control complaint with Panini. You will need your receipt and the part of the box stamped with the number.

[@bizzigies]

@@pJ-us2vl Thanks for the info. They can tell by the box number? I didn't record it, so it's just my word. I'm not too beat up about it since the autos aren't great and I'm over the moon with the Wemby, but I will look into it. Thank you!

[@pJ-us2vl]

@@bizzigies I don't know it's just what they require for the complaint. I had to do a complaint for a bad case and that's everything they wanted plus the UPC from the case. If you file the complaint and have the receipt and stamp from box or everything they ask you to send in they have to take it seriously. What they will do or how they will compensate you I don't know but as you just saw this is common in Prizm this year. If you don't have a Panini account you will have to create 1 which is easy and then go to account and create ticket they have a choice for damaged card, box or case just choose box and they will tell you what to send in.

[@imcheesecakeIRL]

They said if we can’t fill redemptions, then let’s just not put the redemption in either

[@mokhaiba]

Simple. Stop buying 1k boxes of panini. I stop giving them my money 3 years ago. I use that money to just buy the singles I want. Panini can kiss my a! Thanks for the video as always!

[@SACRJC]

That was terrible. Prayers going your way, RGL. I know you are a content creator, so it's hard to tell you to stop buying, but I don't know what other options are left.

[@antmancards]

With Panini's price inflation, that very rarely produce a positive ROI, no wonder Topps is taking over. I would not be surprised to see a class action lawsuit at some point.

[@willyk1310]

Pack 7 and Pack 10 you opened only had 11 cards. Guessing the autos shouldve been in there

[@kevinjbruns]

My box was just as bad bro. First ever prizm hobby I’ve ever bought, every rookie color I got is in the G league now and my 2 autos were rookies I’ve never even heard of that are also in the g league. The ONE hit was a silver wemby luck of the lottery that was literally 80/20 on centering. I’m devastated bro lol

[@jeffersonjohnson]

Why people still open Prizm is mind boggling to me. Did we really think they care about the customer when they are going to be irrelevant very soon?

Got that Willams the 3rd color wheel started atleast...thats fun...right....right?? Oh god what happened

[@DarrenFerguson-mw1tk]

Omg I feel for you, the box price is ridiculous and they can't even get the sorting/spread right. How hard is it to make sure you get what you are supposed to? Sad. I bought 13 blasters same product and year, I am kinda scared to open them now. I know card collecting is a gamble for sure but that's bullshit you been put through.
