White Sparkle Prizm 04.04.2019

https://www.paniniamerica.net/blog.html/refl/https://blog.paniniamerica.net/coming-tomorrow-exclusively-to-icollectpanini-com-2018-19-prizm-white-sparkle-basketball-packs/

Dropping tomorrow, 04.05.2019 (Sorry for the typo in the title). Looks like they will be for sale, not rewards.

[codered]

Just like football was. $50 a pack in football so probably the same in basketball. Should sell out extremely quick

Edit: also kudos to panini for making the boarders vibrantly white. I felt last years white sparkles looked to similar to the base fastbreak prizm cards. This years look much much better

[RogerGodahell]

What's the estimated print run /7?

[Pathora]

What's the estimated print run /7?

I'm assuming its 20 or more, I think that's what 17/18's were. That would be around 2000 packs available, wouldn't surprise me if there's a lot more. They could be like Kaboom packs and they made a ton of them.

Yeah probably right. I haven't followed them for a few years i knew when they were initially released they were rarer. I wouldn't be surprised if they ran the presses now either.

[sblez]

Anyone know what time these are going on sale?

[Pathora]

Anyone know what time these are going on sale?

12:00 CST

[KhalDrogo]

Remember, Mitchel Robinson and Chandler Hutchinson autos were already pulled.

[TBS123]

Are these going to have decent resale value like all the other limited releases. Debating if I should grab a few or save it for NT

Everything exclusive has good resale value.

[smalltown]

Since I’d open them and not flip I think I’m going to pass. The odds of pulling a decent RC are pretty tough. I know I’d end up with crap.

[discostu]

Such a genius way to get revenue...truly manufacturing money.

[cj828282]

Will BO have any interest in these packs?

[airharrison21]

Any release time yet? Or do we all have to just wait until they pop up on the site out of nowhere.

[Oldschool42]

Well my 18/19 rainbow isn’t complete now! Was 37 parallels now another, no big deal right? Hit me up if anyone hits a John Wall.

[Oldschool42]

They look amazing btw.

[dany85]

Does anyone know -- will these be available on the app? Or only the website? thanks!

[era41]

If the print run is /20, it’s a good gamble at $17/card

[SHowley2003]

Same checklist as 2018-19 Prizm or did they shorten it up?

[smalltown]

Same checklist as 2018-19 Prizm or did they shorten it up?

250 vets 50 Rookies.

[imbluestreak23]

Will I get rich if I buy?

[SHowley2003]

250 vets 50 Rookies.

Yeah, that’s why I asked. Is that the same as the initial Prizm release? In the past some of the Panini Store/Rewards releases have used a popular brand but mixed up the imagery and the checklist.

[Pathora]

Looks exactly the same as regular base set, they could've modified some things but even the SGA RC White Sparkle doesn't have the RC logo on it still so I imagine the cards are identical to the initial release. I expect LeBron to still have the Cavs photo...if they happened to make it Lakers that would be interesting.

[codered]

Speculation on rookie prices? I’m just assuming adding a zero to average raw silver prices?

Doncic silver: $170-200 - white sparkle $1700-2000

Young silver: $70-90 - white sparkle $700-900

Bagley silver $40-50 - white sparkle $400-500

Porter silver $40-50 - white sparkle $400-500

Ayton silver: $30-40 - white sparkle $300-400

JJJ silver: $20-30 - white sparkle $200-300

SGA silver: $10-15 - white sparkle $100-150

Thoughts?

[T4brilla]

I think some of the lower end top guys might be a little high but we shall see

SGA silver: $10-15 - white sparkle $100-150

Thoughts?

It depends on if they're still around the 20 print run. If so I'd put the multiplier at around 5x silver. I expect Luka White Sparkle to be around $1000, Trae to be around $500, LeBron to be next around $300-400 and the next batch of RC's to be around $200-300.

[psochaps]

Panini are just firing this stuff out!
Well I’d no luck with FB so I’ll try for 5 packs. Definitely sells out in 2 minutes tomorrow.

[Tnooky]

Is this not going to be available from the app?

[TheRoundMound]

How many freaking parallels they want to pump out for that set :D

[sjay2k]

These cards look amazing

Someone posted in the FB white sparkle packs thread that they sold to BO. I didn’t see anything about it on BO, so can’t confirm.

[messier2]

I am super, super excited to give Panini more of my money!!! $$$$$$$$

[jaredw]

Does anybody have any indication whether or not these cards be machine stamped serially numbered on the back?

And at what price makes these a decent gamble? $50 for the three card pack?

Never been numbered, never will--why put an end to the speculation about how rare these are so that they always sell out, regardless of price and/or production numbers?

Sigh, my hopes and dreams were just dashed...got invited into a meeting at 12:30 pm...

Limit is 5 packs per transaction.

$75/per, I'm passing. GL to all

[d2j2834]

74.99?

[swerve]

Holy crap, 75 a pack!

[ForzaMilan92]

Panini is trolling

[gamboooler]

$75 per and don't worry we didn't crank em out like the Kabooms.

[Bizzydesigner]

$75? Stick it.

[yiguiri2002]

Mine shows out of stock

[KhalDrogo]

Working my way through. Even at $75 these are a no brainer. Packs were $130+ last year on the secondary market.

[Malsk]

Wow $75 pass

[gostl]

$50 I would have been in. At $75 I too am passing.

[bdrr]

the new store/app is horrible and borderline unusable

[KhalDrogo]

Tons of errors, but finally got 5 on the site.

[vollybal]

Grabbed 3 of them...a lot of spinning but no errors and was able to use paypal with no problem.

[theleica]

Tons of errors, but finally got 5 on the site.

yes never thought the site would be better than the app.

[Pathora]

Got 2 using the website, was going to get 5 at $50 each but $75 halted my purchasing a little.

[ClipsandVols]

Got through on the website pretty easily actually. Very surprising

Sent from my XT1585 using Tapatalk

[IndyKMB]

Yep...very painful. Got 4 packs but very surprised it went through with the amount of wheel spinning that damn Panini logo went through. And I forgot to log in (!!!) prior to filling the cart so the first time I submitted log-in info it said there was an error.

First time getting Sparkle packs, so not sure what I'll be doing with them yet, but def happy I was able to get a few.

And I used the website, not the app this time.

[bustsomewax]

In for 3.

[arod305]

Got 4 I think pretty painless, just really slow. Prob not the best use of $300, but I really really enjoy prizm and there are worse buys out there. Hope these are centered better and less surface problems.

[bookyyyyyy]

I can’t even find where these are on the app

[nickha2]

Couldn't even find them on the app had to go on the computer.

[vollybal]

Got 2 using the website, was going to get 5 at $50 each but $75 halted my purchasing a little.

Have to agree on this...Was all set for 5 packs and then saw the $75 and decided just 3 packs.

Good Luck to everyone who got these...Lets pull MONSTERS!!

[discostu]

$25/card seems like such a good deal...


...for someone braver than I am.

[Sikkcaden]

I can’t even find where these are on the app

Same

I got 5 via the website after not being able to find on the app.

[airharrison21]

Sold out

[swerve]

Decided to pass, I am sure they will be fine but just couldn't get myself to pull the trigger.

[Pathora]

And gone.

[LeonfromNC]

sold out already. been trying since 1pm. couldn't get through on app or desktop.

oh well.

FU panini.

[Malsk]

Wow sold out? Crazy...

[mrdallas]

I got 4. Although it said sold out initially, but then I was able to get them in my cart. I had a second order of 5 processing but sold out now

[KhalDrogo]

I think sold out now. Had five and went through the captcha for the order, and it came up with a server error.

[eastbayak]

Working my way through. Even at $75 these are a no brainer. Packs were $130+ last year on the secondary market.

Felt the same. Got 10.

[The Accountant]

got 10 then was going for two more but didnt push the button. stuck to my personal spending limit

[Mj4au]

Same

I got 5 via the website after not being able to find on the app.

on App - Middle Top drop down..."Panini Instant +" bottom of that section

[bdrr]

Manged to get 5. Was close to pushing through through a second order.

This was horrible. I can't imagine what NT will look like.

[Bruin7]

Ugh traveling today and app sucked. Oh well. Good luck everyone on their packs!

Same thing happened to me as I changed the quantity...Then i saw that they were still in the cart...Went back in and was able to get them...But now they are truly sold out.

[theLUCKYshow]

Ugggghh app kept spinning and spinning. Got to checkout but then said there was only 1 pack available, to reduce my order of 5. Game over.

$75 threw me off. Just bought one to play the 3 card lottery.

[trmpetyjo]

said sold out , then refreshed was able to put in cart, then said sold again, then refreshed and was able to put in cart again. I think the only reason these were still available after 2 minutes is because the price was higher then expected so people backed out, and also because people had trouble finding the white sparkle section on the website.

[DJP73]

I got 5 on Computor, surprised these sold out that fast at 75.00 per pack.

[cj828282]

Was able to get 5 packs but the app was really slow. Didn't think I was going to score any. The website was even slower for me. NT Basketball will be insane.

Panini really keeps us guessing on what will work and what won't on these things.

[lyyca]

Got 3

[KhalDrogo]

Fun stuff. Looking forward to NT.

Previously I've felt like the app was the best way to go, but now I would say the website.

I already emailed BO and they said they are not sure if they are buying yet, but will post. Just an FYI so you all don't slam them with emails.

[trouts2]

was able to get 5. It's a no brainer guys. These packs were selling for $125+ last year by themselves. With chances at autos it's a quick flip if you just wanted to sell by the pack

[vollybal]

Thinking this might be a logical thought:

Sparkle Football Pack = 50/pk
NT Football FOTL Box = 500/box

Sparkle Basketball Pack = 75/pk
NT Basketball FOTL Box = 750/Box???

THought

[football33]

still can't figure out where these were on the app. got thru on website and it said they don't ship to my address in Pennsylvania??? Then it tried to charge me for shipping? WTF.

[Oldschool42]

How many freaking parallels they want to pump out for that set :D

White Sparkles will make it 38 parallels across the 3 Prizm brands (Hobby/Retail, Choice, Fast Break). Here’s how insane the sheer number of BASE the last few years compared to the first 4 years of Prizm:

12/13-4
13/14-13
14/15-18
15/16-14

Now Panini gets greedy and adds Mosaic: 16/17-20 (Hobby/Retail only has 14 to chase, Mosaic added 6 more).

Not content to just have Mosaic they add Fast Break: 17/18-34

To change things up they in 18/19 Prizm they dump Mosaic and give Asia an exclusive (Choice)-37

But WAIT THERE”S ONE MORE WAY TO KEEP US SPENDING: add one more 18/19 parallel the big one WHITE SPARKLE!!!!!

When will they hit 50, 75, or 100 parallels? Poop brown mojo choice dragon SSSSSP, watermelon pink /18, teal wave /54? Truthfully I’m shocked that they didn’t add /2, /3, /4, /6, and /9 (they already have 1/1, /5, /7 x3, /8, & /10) so us rainbow chasers can go out of our freakin minds! I complain but I will always chase the parallels.

[JIMG28]

Got four on the website. Thought I had selected five but only showed four in the cart and as slow as it was I wasn't going to try to update the cart.

[shindo03]

I got a payment through via paypal. But, I don't know if the order went through?

[Pathora]

The website used to have around 7-10 steps that it goes through, now its much faster...go from select how many you want, to checkout, straight to debit card/paypal with the shipping and address already selected. Fill out card info, hit the captca and done.

[Orangejello727]

Thinking this might be a logical thought:

Sparkle Football Pack = 50/pk
NT Football FOTL Box = 500/box

Sparkle Basketball Pack = 75/pk
NT Basketball FOTL Box = 750/Box???

I think its going to be $999.99 a box. They know...Ohhhh...they know!

This price increase was a test to see if the it would affect the sold out timing. It didnt, so its a green light!!

[fenwaykid]

Problem with buying these on the secondary market is the Autographs are usually stickers - with three cards in a pack I fear they could be easily searched.

I like to think most people are honest, and happy with what is going to be a decent return on these to begin with. I don't need to search my packs, nor do I even know how to search a pack. But I realize there are plenty of scumbags out there desperate for a buck.

[discostu]

It makes sense for Panini to continue to push the prices up because the market will bear it easily. Spiking these packs an extra $25 (from $50 to $75), Panini generated an extra $50,000 (based on the 2,000 pack assumption).

Incredible return.

If Panini knew their market (and they do), they'll definitely do the same with NT.

[KhalDrogo]

Doubt it. No FOTL release has been above MSRP. Although if they're going to do it, NT is the one they would test it on.

[mrdallas]

Makes you wonder if people that had their orders cancelled under the Origins FOTL are concerned the same thing may happen here

[KhalDrogo]

First one up on eBay. 5 packs for $1200 BIN/BO.

[cj828282]

$175 per pack also listed with 9 available.

[ichirorox]

Ended up getting 10. Didn't show up on app at all for me, but luckily I had my laptop handy.

[airharrison21]

145 obo listed

Same. Also, I ended up with 12 Prizm sparkle football packs; opened 6, selling 6, and I did pull one auto which was the second card of the pack (in the middle), so I would presume that would make it harder on the pack searchers even if they tried? Unless they're sealing/re-sealing obv

You can't try and do the order process on the app and website at the same time. Whatever you try and do the 2nd time will kick you out and say complete your transaction on app/website.

[Pathora]

Pretty sure they're numbered 1/1.

[Dnic]

Unless you got these from the site I wouldn't even buy them on the secondary market I'm betting there is a way to search them for sure the autos since the sticker would make the cards weigh a little more so unless they put fillers in the packs the autos are easily determined imo. As far as rookies idk but I'm pretty sure the dishonest people have a way to search them for sure, I made the mistake of buying 4 packs on ebay and all the rookies were garbage wont be making that mistake again.

The odds of hitting anyone good are tough. SO not hitting anything in 4 packs is probably not unusual. And if you hit any rookies that is a plus in itself. Now had you have hit Korver, Batum, Green in each packs... then

I don't blame you for being skeptical, but I have bought some Panini direct FOTL boxes and after I opened them I thought to myself... "had I have bought these on the secondary market I could have sworn they had been searched". They were THAT bad

[yiguiri2002]

Got 5 after multiple problems:

- First, it would tell me they were Out of Stock when checking out even though they shoed as "In Stock"

- Then, when shipping, it told me they weren't shipping to my usual address. After changing it back and forth, it processed.

You can’t search who is on the card.

Well if that's the case then they could reseal these as well, I inspected the packs I bought and if they can reseal those then I wouldn't put it past that they could easily reseal these as well.
Of course they can. But that’s different than being able to search them for rookies, like you originally said. Moving on.

5 pack lot sold for $625 ($125 each)

Quick math.. is that about $35/profit per?

Not terrible but I am planning on busting. Flip the ones I don't want right away and then grade a few hopefully.

After fees and shipping they probably made $35 per pack like you said.

Maybe the Doncic 1/1 is in there lol

[estebahn73]

Wow, I would rather buy Kaboom packs for $125 than these packs for $125. I mean chances of getting anywhere near $125 back on the 3 cards would be soooo low. Other than top 4 RCs and maybe Lebron, Curry, Kobe, Giannis who else can bring anywhere near the pack price?

There are 300 cards in the set. 3 cards per pack. 1 in 100 packs chances to pull Doncic gulp.

[mmayville]

I missed the whole thing... meeting I couldn't get out of.
After hearing they bumped it to $75 a pack, I'm glad I missed it.

With 250 veterans and 50 rookies, you aren't even guaranteed to get a rookie. In 3 months, the commons will be going for $3 or $4 each.

Word. Totally agreed

[fenwaykid]

Unless you got these from the site I wouldn't even buy them on the secondary market I'm betting there is a way to search them for sure the autos since the sticker would make the cards weigh a little more so unless they put fillers in the packs the autos are easily determined imo. As far as rookies idk but I'm pretty sure the dishonest people have a way to search them for sure, I made the mistake of buying 4 packs on ebay and all the rookies were garbage wont be making that mistake again.

Exactly my point...you can't touch this stuff, all searched.

Awesome! To who?Someone with quality feedback on eBay. I plan on sending him my unopened envelope from Panini with 3 packs. (Hopefully they send orders separately like they did with football)

At least he'll know they weren't searched that way.

Did you use the company’s wifi or cellular service?

[messier2]

Did you use the company’s wifi or cellular service?

LTE...I learned that in buying the FOTL products...slightly faster. But, good enough to help secure the box(es).

[nickha2]

is $95 a fair offer or are these worth more?

[messier2]

It's fair because you save on PP and Ebay fees. Very fair IMO.

[coltsnsox07]

And ZERO chance at a paypal scam like when selling to an individual after they open them and get nothing good...always go for the headache free transaction!

[airharrison21]

Has anyone ever sold a box/packs on Ebay and had someone file a complaint after they opened them? I know there's always a chance, but I'm curious how often it happens.

I price it slightly higher than expected sales price and let them offer. Vet the buyers (make sure they are reliable). I also always put a disclaimer in the listing that says they waive their right to return under any circumstances by purchasing. Never had an issue.

I usually ask them to let me know what they pull...That way I can either feel good about selling or celebrate with them. The only ones who let me know are the ones who hit something good!

I got a payment through via paypal. But, I don't know if the order went through?

I am in the same boat as you. Have you found out if you will get your packs? I was buying through the app and had 5 in the cart and paid with PP. When I confirmed payment on the Panini App it said there was an error. It took me back to the payment screen so I pressed confirm payment again. I got another error and this time I decided to log in to my PayPal account. There it shows two payments of $349 in my PayPal account. But when I log on to Panini, there are no White Sparkle packs in the "My Order" section. Previously when I ordered FOTL products, the "My Order" section displayed the purchases same day, so I am worried that now my money is tied up and I won't get the packs either. I called Panini CS and they are predictably not answering.

[Siberian13]

If packs don't show up in your order history in my experience the order didn't go through. Even though you were charged

same thing happened to me for the FOTL Honors boxes. Long story short, no cards for me and my money is now tied up for 2-3 business days.

Thanks for the reply. Did you contact Panini or PayPal to get this corrected?

Sorry to hear. That sucks. Have you contacted PayPal yet? I got double charged on an eBay purchase before. The eBay seller did not respond to my messages, so I had to contact PP who then confirmed the double payment and gave me back my money. A definite pain for sure.

[mrdallas]

I sold Points recently and they got the points first and redeemed then they paid with goods. Are points different?

Why in the world if they pay gift would I choose goods. Cost me $20 bucks

(just bumped them a bit based on yours...let's see what happens)

[airharrison21]

Seems like in the last couple hours prices have gone up a little bit on these packs. Wonder if they will go up even more once they are live.

[coltsnsox07]

Hey you resellers on ebay....check your shipping, it says "Guaranteed by April 11th" on the new listings and when you click on the details it says this...
Check item #1....
* The delivery date is not guaranteed until you have checked out using an instant payment method. If your Guaranteed Delivery item isn’t on time, you can (1) return the item, for a refund of the full price and return shipping costs; or (2) keep the item and get a refund of your shipping costs (if shipping was free, get a $5 eBay voucher).

People will be able to return you packs because I doubt you'll be receving them soon enough to get them to the buyer by the 'guaranteed April 11th'.

[psochaps]

We should all rip!
One Rookie per pack right? These should sell well.
I’m hoping for better packs than the FB! In for 10 and I’ll be ripping them all....come on 1/1 Auto! Luka..... lol

[LeonfromNC]

It’s not even close to 1 rookie a pack. 300 card set only 50 rookies. 3 cards per pack. You do the math. It’s pretty hit or miss actually.

Right! I was just thinking the same as FB....

[pcbuck]

I remember when these first came out in 2016 they were on the rewards site for 1000 points per pack or about $30-35 per pack. I couldn't justify spending $150 for 2 packs with most likely getting 1 rookie in those 6 cards. (50/300)

[sblez]

I opened 20 packs of Football and every pack had a rookie in it...

[pcbuck]

I opened 20 packs of Football and every pack had a rookie in it...

I'd expect that with Prizm Football. There was 300 cards in the set with 100 rookies.

Basketball is a bit different with 300 cards and only 50 rookies. There should be only 1 rookie every 2 packs. Basketball does have some retired players that should bring in good money like Kobe, Barkley, Shaq and a few others

[ichirorox]

These cards look amazing this year. They remind me of the 2015-16 white sparkles in that they’re actually white and not that lame silver color. Eye appeal is a plus.

[messier2]

[vollybal]

Got my shipping info!!! Hopefully they will get here on Wednesday as my Diamond Kings FOTL is Pending Status on Fedex's tracking site and it was suppose to be here last Friday.

[rambel]

Got my shipping information (FEDEX Ground) added to one order with tracking number but both orders show shipped. I'm guessing they just combined both orders into 1 shipping package.

This was speculated last year by a BO member. These cards sell hot out of the gates then lose steam over time, as with most products. I went heavy on the Preferred and White Sparkle packs last year. It was a fun chase!

I never understand how both my packages ship the same day with fedex, one arrives tomorrow and the other on Friday.
Anyway I need to decide if I’m ripping or selling to BO. Definitely a gamble with only a chance of pulling a RC in two packs.

[KhalDrogo]

I sold mine to BO. Hopefully the person who packed them out wasn't the guy putting rubber bands on the football orders.
