The same people that talk about supply and demand conveniently forget that there are 35-40 releases of men’s products every year and just a few of WNBA. Plus, for people that like Prizm, there has never been a WNBA Prizm before now. And the fanatics boxes have sold out twice already (so allegedly no demand but there are sellouts - lol). So while I can buy 8 years of mens NBA Prizm and mens college Prizm for insane prices, I shouldn’t buy the one year of WNBA? At the end of the day, it’s all relative. And so what if i don’t make money from this?
Maybe you could make me a list of all the things you think I should buy and are 100% gauranteed will make money? I’m really worried about having a mind of my own with my HOBBIES. It’s shiny cardboard. I’m totally worried about buying the wrong shiny cardboard. Lol.

Everyone has a right to purchase and like what they like. If it is for your enjoyment, by all means buy away. It is a hobby after all. Ratings have nothing to do with prices of cards exploding. Ratings went down for basketball and the market exploded for the NBA. RATING went up for the WNBA and if truth be told the vast majority did not even notice. Even I. All of those other sports, there is a huge difference between “sports” good and hobby good. If Pinnacle could not find a foothold when they had players like Lisa Leslie, Cheryl Miller, the Houston WNBA team, see I forgot all their names, for people who are hoarding this product it might not end well.
Again my observation.
