$283.33?

Last year DA bought a ton of this and must have overpaid, and was dumping it all season depressing the market until they finally ran out (had it for $250 on Black Friday). It will do better this year I'm sure, but hoping buyers are targeting a low price because of that.

keysersoze3421 · 07-08-2021, 10:42 AM

Same. Hobby looks like it's pre-selling around $325-$350 ($400 on the big 3). Paying up for Elite of all products really hurts.

Saban1 · 07-08-2021, 10:54 AM

Hobby is $300 for preorder on another site.

phil · 07-08-2021, 10:59 AM

Probably 2000 boxes, same as last year.

mossoholic · 07-08-2021, 11:26 AM

Hobby is selling $260-$290 on ebay. There are buy it nows right now under $300. The way the hobby and FOTL have been lately it should get close to the floor. But I guess we will see

phil · 07-08-2021, 11:36 AM

Took a chance, case at $283.33. High volume now.

Another case at $266.67 and gone.

Chris P · 07-08-2021, 11:41 AM

Sold out at $266

mossoholic · 07-08-2021, 11:43 AM

No clue why this sold out so high. Why is this worth more than Chronicles Draft FOTL? Yes Elite is a better brand but Chronicles you get more autos, rookies, more low numbered cards. Only pro uniform rookies in these should be the Pen pals autos again.

tolrobb · 07-08-2021, 11:45 AM

was waiting for one more drop to grab a couple, not heartbroken, elite is kinda meh.

Breakers and flippers would be my only guess. Just a bummer because it was looking like Panini might have to start actually pricing things reasonably again but nope people are still happy to over pay if given the chance I suppose.

Yeah obviously wish I coulda gotten some at the floor but Im sure not singing the blues over it. There are going to be a ton of virtually all college uniform rookie FOTL and online exclusives the next 2 months.

Ya, almost $300 after taxes for Elite is too much...no thanks. I opened a couple in 2019 (that were $120/box) and that was risky.

rcgdodge · 07-08-2021, 11:50 AM

I don't know anything about Trevor Lawrence, but I hate him already.

Asian62150 · 07-08-2021, 11:50 AM

Remember those days when BO would offer a bounty BEFORE FOTL sold out?

I think they even did it a few times after Panini started running the auctions.

The days of BO offering anything significant on any FOTL product are long gone. They can just buy what they want at the price they want along with everyone else. Unless you're willing to buy and hold something long term (and hope the product is extremely popular)

majestik101 · 07-08-2021, 12:17 PM

$266 so basically $300 including tax.

Rip off

Wake me when real cards start to hit. 2022.

As these are popping up today.... ouch. Usually Elite is one of my favorite base RCs to add, but this year is rough. College jerseys are one thing, but even the design is bad. So much going on. Just way too busy. Big disappointment on this one this year.

WalterAZ31 · 07-16-2021, 10:36 PM

admittedly im not that big of a fan of rookies in collegiate unis but it doesnt seem to be as bit of an eyesore like Score is. And there seems to be a nice assortment for everyone in that you can still get low numbered or 1/1's of vets and your normal superstars

having said that i did join a break today over at G1 and did well for 4 boxer of Falcons and Cardinals. Nothing earth shattering but my lucky streak of getting some "hits" as they say continued

Kyle Pitts Red parallel RC /399
Javian Hawkins Orange parallel RC /49
Kyler Murray Jersey Swatch insert

and the best one of the pack, another cool Rondale Moore

Pen Pals Purple Ink Rookie Auto (oncard)

Row · 07-18-2021, 07:19 PM

No Waller in the base checklist for the second year in a row

EBCollectibles · 07-18-2021, 07:31 PM

Seen 2 cases opened and it is toilet or garbage can material.
