Which, with where singles are at, is still a great price. These won't be Prizm hangers long term, but if 19/20 prices hold/rise, they also aren't $50 hangers...

At the very least, it is nice to see this flood of probably the main wave of the retail product hit at once, has definitely helped prices for those of us that can't/aren't looking for it in stores.

For anyone wondering if you should bust or sell sealed here is my experience with the last go around. This DOES NOT take into account if you want to hold long term. All current eBay sealed prices.

18 Hangers at 50 per = 900
13 Blasters at 50 per = 650
10 Cello at 25 per = 250
4 Mega at 150 per = 600

Grand total 2400(have to pay fees etc), paid 980 with tax.

I open everything, sell singles and keep what I want to. So far this is what I have:

915 in open offers
1310 sold

Grand total of 2225(have to pay fees etc).

That 2225 is for 30 cards. Given, they are a lot of better ones but I did keep back what I wanted to keep. I'd say my break was right around average from the breaks posted. I still have hundreds and hundreds of rookies, inserts, parallels of all the above as well. I'd say at least 1k worth of cards plus the few I keep.

Point of the post is, any retail basketball this is year, at MSRP....is TOTALLY worth opening. I came out even better from Optic(1 big big hit). Totally missed anything before that. Fun year to be involved in cards. Not many years I can remember opening cards to instantly make money and keep what I want. Probably has never happened(to me) beyond maybe the old days of opening BC baseball cases.

Shot out to Tejas and Cali posters for informing their hoods.

Lucky duck. I'm super happy finding what I did BUT I'd be more than happy to open any and everything I find. The ONLY wax I'd even consider selling is blasters. I've opened 18 so far and have got absolutely crushed when compared to any of the other SKU's. Congrats again and have fun!

That's probably a good deal, long term.

When I rip all of this today ill keep it separated to show how each SKU does. For the most part I have had good luck across all.

I know everyone likes a good MJ rep story... Here's mine this morning.

Saw rep stocking and went up to her and asked if she had any basketball cards. She goes over to box and pulls out a wrapped Mosaic display and tells me "you can have two"

I say why just two?

She says those are the rules.

I'm not going to argue over basketball cards so I just say ok thanks. She gives me two blasters and two hangers. I asked if she had any big boxes and she then goes back in the box grabs one mega and gives it to me. She was not nice but again I just say thanks.

I check out and go put it in my car. Go back in because I needed other things. I see her leaving so I go back over there... and she did not stock any of the Mosaic! Shady.

Anyways I do buy the 5 Bowmans she put out as well. But I guess she either had someone else coming to get the rest or was taking it herself.

cant stand these rude people . one of my wal marts had 3 empty displays . I have had no luck with wal mart at all . scored at target a couple of times . theres gotta be someone with the hookup as far as the wal marts go around here . hit up target twice this week on re stock day and absolutely no sign of any kind of re stock . excel guy getting lazy ? who knows . its always hit or miss .

like I said I scored on retail twice at target. I got my hobby boxes and fast break boxes yesterday . I have 3 cello boxes coming . I already scored on bowman retail . so im going to take a break from the retail hunt . it gets very sickening to go and leave empty handed .

Found a full display today. Left 2 Megas, 3 Hangers and 5 cellos. Also left the Mosaic display boxes so people rushing there at least know it’s already been put out lol

In regards to value, I think most have a small sample size and are quick to jump to whatever was hottest for them. Megas are an easy choice, but I've seen up to 6 or 7 parallels come out of a single hanger box (downside with them is no chance at a numbered card, but have the variations so probably negates that - easier to pull a Zion variation than a top numbered card out of retail). Cellos have their exclusive blue fluorescent, blasters with their orange, also don't forget the mega exclusive blue reactive inserts are numbered to 99.

Especially at retail (and msrp), most are can't lose. I was obviously incredibly lucky but made 2k from 2 retail Lebron pulls. His base orange fluorescent /25 blaster exclusive, and his silver mosaic jam masters. Where else could you pull a lebron insert, from retail, and pull in $450 raw? Crazy times... to be fair, both cards were truly badass in hand...

I've been trying to remember where I pulled the genesis from but I cant remember for the life of me. I know it was either the blasters or megas. Only thing I pulled from the single packs was the Zion variation.

Has anyone in Washington state seen anything on the shelves? It looks like reps haven’t stocked anything since Gypsy came out for baseball where I’ve checked.

It’s annoying. You can’t even find a box just a box. The new norm.

Flippers. Not good for the hobby in the long run.

Someone sold 8 blasters, 8 hangers, and 5 cellos for 875 on ebay. It's crazy the prices these are bringing. Even double MSRP seems nuts.
