Some prices stayed the same but many were increased overnight. Probably prepping for Cyber Monday sale when they mark some of them back down again.

I sure hope so! Specifically,...as it pertains to the items I had my eyes on! I had a reasonable amount of items that were to satisfy my insatiable-want of ripping/investing, and then; got tied-up @ work! Remembered, this morning, and much to my dismay, my...."forgetfulness" might end up costing me a few extra hundred, bucks!! Keeping my fingers crossed that the items come back..."discounted",... again, on Monday. Well,...at least,...some of 'em!

EDIT: In years, past, was this a..."normal" procedure @ BO....??? Meaning,...lowered prices on a specific item for Black Friday,....raised it back up over the weekend,....and then, lowered it/them, again,...on Cyber Monday?

I always thought a lot of the cyber monday deals were slightly higher than black friday deals in the past

They've been doing that like forever. Sell a little at a good discount. Then sells out and relist at a higher price. You know, they had to contact Steel city or Dave and busters to buy more hence the price jump.

2022 HHN seems like a great deal at $500 a case.

Haven't really ripped anything since my S1 case last winter.

Is this worth snagging? I remember it being printed to the moon and centering/collation being an issue, but $42 per box seems like a no-brainer.

I picked up two cases. It was my purchase for the event.

It might be printed to moon, but it's still a really high floor with the rookie class. Not to mention Heritage always has some potential monsters.

dunquixote1 · 11-25-2023, 02:16 PM

People complaining about the lack of deals is surprising. I found the deals to be plenty. 2018 Bowman blasters @$100, 2018 Bowman Megas @$150, 2021 Chrome NPB cases @$1,100. These are all around 50-75% off lowest comp prices. I mean, wtf do people want? This is only a short list of things that could have been purchased that require zero speculating. And if you want to get into speculating, there was plenty as well. Ginter 2023 cases $1,000 are likely to be looked at as a bargain a couple years from now. NCAA product generally sucks, but I'll still stand but the fact that 2022 Bowmans Best University is worth speculating on given the QB autos in it. IDK. Just feel like people want to relive the glory days of 2012 but also want items that are flippable like it's 2021. Ok, that's the end of my message board rant like it's 2004. Haha. PS - why are people so coy about naming other ccmpanies like DACards or Steelcity? Is there a rule about not mentioning other companies I'm unaware of? I'm not sure if it's people gatekeeping or just following a board rule.

People will always complain. If they priced 1952 Topps at $100 a case people would complain that the price was too low and they didn't get a chance to buy it.

The fact of the matter here, is that it was a good sale. If anyone disagrees, they just don't know a good deal when they see it, or they want something for nothing. Blowout has no reason to sell 2023 Ginter Hobby cases for $500. That would be stupid of them. People want the hottest products for way under market, plain and simple. And if they don't get that, they whine about lack of deals. Unfortunately, that is the world we live in, and there are a higher concentration of those folks here than in a lot of places.

Just tried to log in and now they are apparently down for maintenance ? Weird time to be doing that.

*EDIT* NVM back up

comicbooksgo · 11-25-2023, 04:22 PM

I've had that happen several times, and each time I waited less than a minute, and logged in no problem.

Solid post. 2018 bowman and update blasters, along with 2023 ginter, 2021 chrome npb, and gpk were all incredible deals. Everything you said was spot on.

Has topps 2023 ginter been cheaper than 1000?

I saw some are mentioning an additional blowout promo\coupon code, was there something in an email?

Thetruthisout · 11-25-2023, 05:30 PM

I didn't want to rip any of my sealed product collection, but did want to open up some product during some down-time between Christmas and New Year's.

Wasn't looking for any value, just for some product to open and enjoy; so I picked up some Allen & Ginter, Topps RIP and a case of Big League Collector.

I may pick up more. I thought much of was/is available is decently-priced.

And B.O. ships quickly. Just enjoy.

I'm not aware of any. Most likely referring to the codes that were active before the sales. They halt those when these sales start.

Ahh gotcha, yea I was thinking that as well, but was not sure. I was digging through all of my deleted Blowout emails and came up empty handed, LOL.
