Either way imo for $20 it’s hard not to buy and rip every box
You meant $30, right?

In store if I bought 12, I can bring old receipts to pricematch. Return and rebuy them for buy 2 get 1 free, saves $120+

They are considered games not cards, so it works. Sportscard returns they did away with so this is the one loophole left

There is no way they would allow this.

90% do. Occasionally you get the miserable person who won’t allow it, but most of the time they do. 90 days to return items, all you do is ask to price match.

I feel like the employee would have a similar opinion of a guy that not only bought out 12 boxes of cards previously but then comes in a month later to try to return and rebuy them for cheaper.

For price matching and saving money? They allow it for 90 days. What’s the difference if I buy something on sale now or then? It would be stupid of me not to take advantage of it since it’s available.

By the way full disclosure I’ve ripped 150+ of these, kept some sealed in case they had a promo like this, knowing they aren’t considered sportscards.

The amount of money I’ve spent on retail at target the last 20 years, I don’t think they mind. Not entitled, freeloading or clipping coupons. Simply taking advantage of something they completely allow. Don’t understand what the issue is. Apparently nobody here has ever price matched anything in store.

By the way, people are leaving these in stores around me even with the sale. Should I not buy them when I enjoy ripping them? Lol

If these are originally $30 then theyre overpriced. They shouldnt be more than $20-25.

Good for you if they have these offers that can be applied retroactively.

I saw 6 games at my store, no boosters tho.

Almost bought them but then decided I'd be too pissed if it was all base

Problem is that’s all you get. 0 chance of numbered hits or anything besides the black icon in each pack.

Also, good to know—since I'm only interested hitting a Mr. Monopoly at this point anyway.

Good luck to you and your endeavors.

Let us know if you pull anything sweet.

Did Panini print a 2nd run of these with harder-to-pull hits? I've opened several boxes in a row now with all base after getting some pretty nice hits in the 1st wave of boxes I opened shortly after this product was released.

Or are my odds just evening out? I still have 5 boxes to rip but seriously contemplating just returning them.

All you had to know is that the average was less than 1 numbered per booster and see how many numbered cards there are in boosters (hint: a lot). There's a lot of this printed.
