They just don’t understand collectors are leaving the hobby because of the prices and that leaves gamblers.

It’s not a sound business plan.

I'm in for my box, but think this will be the last hurrah for Flashbacks for me unless they cut prices next year. I'm very excited about the 1996 set though. I am worried about this not being opened heavily if folks balk at the price. I'm going to want a good number of singles and hope they show up on eBay. With me taking this off the list, I'm left with only six products I plan to buy boxes of next year: 206, Brooklyn, Mini, 3D, Stadium Club, and Holiday. There is still time for them to wreck Brooklyn for me though so it could end up being four. On the bright side, they are making a lot of products I like the cards in. As long as other folks keep ripping them, I'm good.

I'll watch your ebay store. Hope you list anything you don't want to keep, I'll be picking up something from this release but just can't touch a box at that price.

I just haven't been in the mood to list stuff at all for the past few months but likely will at least unload the stuff I don't want from this and a couple of others when they come in.

Will there be multiple copies of the 1/1 superfractors in this product?

I’m asking because I would like to increase my chances of pulling one, so I could be one of the three lucky collectors who own a copy of the 1/1 of my favorite player.
