I'm so excited for the drop.

I'll be shattered to miss on a Rare pack, but have always said I hoped for a Common drop and will definitely get one you'd think.

Gonna be fire. Bring on TD, Manu and TP.

Definitely interested in the Shaq RIB. He was out in Barstow CA today advertising one of his new restaurants.

I had both Wnba Sets.. then after the drop, i noticed my CS drop like 600 points.. Which makes sense, because now I no longer had the complete set.. Still, it annoyed me enough to sell all the commons (except the A'ja) and then put the dapper towards Playoff moments for the Hawks. If you have a team set and stack playoff moments from that team, then each moment is like an additional 160 points to your CS..So I bought $7 & $8 moments with the dapper from WNBA and now my score is larger and I have extra dapper VS having to buy all those extra moments and whatnot.

Looks like you've cracked the code..

So you have Vince Carter and all the Hawks and stack Hawks Playoff moments?

Eligible for Priority queue 2, CS 0f 4,600 or so. Never have any luck but maybe this time will be different.

Foolishly loaded up on MPJ /15ks back during the slight March dip... anyone who loaded up on the /12k guys [ with only 1 moment] during the long summer dip has been cleaning up. Monk, Poole, NaW, etc would have given you tremendous gains with multiples of. I somehow thought Poole had a bunch & really missed out on him. Enjoying the short-term flips on the other guys though

All the $4 moments seem to be selling for people to earn the points for the higher queues.

We shall see.
They lowered the normal threshold for PQ2 from 5K to 2.5K, so there's definitely gonna be a ton more people thats eligible. Getting a pack will be tough IMO. Almost all of the packs are in the General Queue.

yeah, I noticed that also. May just stick to GQ after all and keep my fingers crossed. Also since the general queue is the only one that gets archive packs.

If you get a RIB pack the commons are from the archive 13/14 set.

I have been really excited for it myself, so I have no idea what's going on.
One member a page back or so said we should expect it within a week.

Yes, 20 each this year for commons.

This means that, effective immediately, WNBA: Best of 2021 Common Moments in Summer 2021 will be worth 20 Collector Score points each. Upcoming Common WNBA Moments in this series will receive the same treatment while Rare and Legendary WNBA Moments in Summer 2021 will have equal Collector Score values to Series 2 Rare and Legendaries.
Please note, potential NBA Common Moments in Summer 2021 will still be valued at 2 Collector Score points apiece. We expect that Common WNBA Moments following the Summer 2021 Series will share the same Collector Score value as Common NBA Moments. Stay tuned for more updates in September.

Plus they also added for the drop bonus. So a $15 common will yield 35 CS points.

Wait. WNBA moments are 35 points right now?Each?
I thought they only had a bonus for the RARE drop? There is an on-going bonus outside of that?

Same.

I wonder what the story is there? A week seems a bit cray.

20 CS for summer WNBA, but the drop bonus for RIB is 1 CS for $1 spent if you still own moment. So if you buy a $15 WNBA moment and hold it thru thursday it'll count for 20+15 = 35 CS.

Side note, wasn't sure if one of the post above slipped in a 1 on accident, but Playoff moments are worth 20 and if you own the whole team set, it is 3X so it would be worth 60, not 160.

Remember they come from NBA Top Shot themselves....with every pack drop, they hold back a percentage (too many IMO) for promos and giveaways. This would fall in that category. Yes, it may take a bit but honestly, the longer you wait, maybe you'll get one of those rare/legendary packs...or maybe the Rebound pack.

I honestly dont mind when it comes, I just wish I had communication/updates surrounding it if there is a delay. That's all.
