Glad to see that I’m not the only one thinking this. I’m just stashing these packs away.

Guess it doesn't hurt to throw the number out there ad hope someone bites. Or, they are in for $30-35 a box and need to make sure they break even.

I kept some boxes and sold some to BO. Told my wife up front we’d make money buying what we found and we did so that’s a +1 in the pro column...actually sold on eBay and had a NPB so made more selling to BO...win!

i am just waiting for 6 months from now when people start listing the Mojo base packs with the words auto somewhere in the tile.

The mojo base packs clearly won't give any numbered or color refractors, but I guarantee there will be some schmuck who is going to list the packs for sale and put ................ Othani Rc? Auto? in their title.

Sad but it will happen.

I told my wife the same thing. When she saw I opened some she gave me the WTF look. LOL I should probably sell the rest before she actually gets pissed.

Right now selling single boxes or smaller lots seem to be making more money than larger lots.

I agree. I’m still waiting for one buyer to pay for one box. Anybody know how long after the auction end I should do something about it?

2 days after end of auction, open NPB then wait 4 days and close.

It won't help the prices. But a Significant drop from 30 to 35. Probably not.

If these drop a lot due to Ohtani, I'll likely end up opening. I like the Robert/Florial/Ruiz 1st cards, and all play in big markets.

Boxes need to drop more for me to consider buying any more of thses. People still trying to get over 35 for em. Even with Ohtani I wouldnt pay that. I am looking at 25-27 shipped and I still would probably pass
