In before the barrage of comments saying this is an ugly, overpriced set. Always been a big fan of this set. Feel it is under-rated. On-card autos, clean images, nice patches (though only player-worn), and cheaper relative price point to higher end sets like NT/Flawless/Impeccable. I've never bought a box, but love to pick up singles when I can.

Remember when We still had football cards being released?
Love the announcements. Not sure when anything will come out.

Edit: Although it appears they did presell some retail boxes for contenders so maybe I've just missed it. Last edited by zolt1313; 04-26-2024 at 01:31 PM. |

If that's the case, it's probably more of a 'we'll get to your stuff whenever we get to it' kind of situation.

i find it moderately hilarious that there is only one factory in the world that can make a trading card. Like if you owned a business that could package $5 in paper into a $500 product, youd find a way to print it.

There's, at least, one overseas now. They're making fake prizm cards. Wemby's for days.

panini has been actively using new facilities, only 1 or 2 recent releases have come from gc. prizm bk was printed at a new facility, and it was a disaster. there are others who can do it, just not in the volume that gc does.

FOTL sold out at $679. This has to be of the the worst buys of all time. Last years FOTL has tanked over 50%. 2023 hobby cases sold on ebay at under $300 a box. FOTL is 1 single rookie patch auto card /60 or less. Even at the floor with tax what are your odds of coming out ahead on a box? 1-2%? Look at what Anthony Richardson patch autos sell for. Every card /60 is a loser. Most are 75%+ losers.
At the floor with tax a case for most people is around $14.5k a case. Is it possible to come out ahead on a case without hitting the Richardson 1/1 shield auto? Maybe those inserts you hit 1 per case you could hit a Stroud 1/1 if they are numbered that low. |

I truly don't understand the chase here. This product is the epitome of degenerate gambling and the potential payout just isn't there in a high enough frequency to make it even remotely worth it at these prices. When these boxes were $100 (actual price direct from Panini in 2019) they were rough, now you're basically guaranteed to lose money. Apparently people don't care.

2022 (I believe was Purdy-less?) Boxes can be had now for $249. Still think some of the cards that come out are sharp but you could also get a $20 scrub. Actually most likely to do so. Got a Travon Gold /10 RPA a few months back for under a hundred dollars. |

I'm happy to let everyone lose money and then buy their cards for half price.
