Guess I'm going to have to start a Sinner thread. Just had a sub pop with PSA and my Sinner's got ten 10's and one 9.

Still waiting on my two sinners from PSA. Well done on the grades. I will say the panini instant quality is pretty good

Thanks. These were all from the National Gold packs (Blue, Purple, Red/White/Blue, White Sparkle). The only other one was a Panini Instant Jaguar /10 which I'm really glad got a 10 as well.

Which Panini Instants are you guys referring to? The most recent Instant Sinner, from the ATP finals, were cut with god awful centering left/right, both base and autos. I’d be hesitant to send any of the most recent to PSA.

My two were from the 2025 wimbledon championship. They looked centered sending them in - will report back. PSA taking their sweet old time.

That’s a beauty! That release had great centering. Check out some of the last ones from the ATP Finals and look how bad the centering is left to right.

Yeah the wimbledons had good centering too. Good luck on them! I had a couple gem myself. Compare those to the ATP Finals’ centering.

Did a breaker delight case, Novak case hit insert but no marquee autos. Emma gold and eala base in first 2 boxes and mostly downhill after

MichaelDang · 02-10-2026, 06:53 PM

im missing 9 cards after sorting a case of base. If anybody has all 9 or close to it plmk I can buy or trade
69 91 167 179 182 194 210 290 300

They need to work with most of these tennis players to sign better.. so many are so worthless in value that at least they could sign their stickers better and maybe add something fun every once in a while... i could have a classroom of kindergarteners sign their names better than most I'm seeing.

Iva Jovic is one of the chases and her autograph is one of the worst I've seen. This product was bad last year. Then Topps added another 100 names to the checklist. Belongs in the $40 clearance bin.

Ripped 2 Hobby Boxes and 2 Delight Boxes. Most Notables:

Novak True Gold Non-Auto /50
Geo McEnroe Auto
Giovanni Mpetshi Perricard RC True Gold Non-Auto /50

Was shorted an Auto in 1 of the Hobby Boxes and got an extra Numbered instead, so submitted for that. No Oranges, Blacks, or Reds. Not even a single Jovic Base. Same case the Novak Gold came out of, a Novak Helix also and Nadal Refractor /99 Auto.

The auto checklist is too much... Honestly, so many of the names are irrelevant or have no potential which I hate to say. I really do not understand why they are filling it with players who are in their late 20's ranked 150+... Could've easily dropped it to half and did 1 auto instead of 2 per a box. Rather they add in an extra 1-2 numbered and a better checklist quality with 1 Auto.

Nice pulls. Too bad you didn't have that whole case.

The delight boxes are much weaker than hobby boxes at a value prospective from what I've seen so far. One of the big tennis breakers has stopped opening delight all together and is doing hobby only moving forward.

Really wish I did, the guy who ripped the box after my Gold Joker hit got the Helix. Noticed that as well, Hobby just seems to be the best value

Ended up with 8 boxes of hobby from the fanatic drop...they arrived this morning. Super fun to open and best 5 cards were probably:

Andre Agassi Orange Captured 16/25
Novak Djokovic Orange Captured 7/25
Qinwen Zheng Youthquake Refractor Auto 10/99

TOP 2

NOVAK DJOKOVIC REFRACTOR AUTO 7/99!!!!

AND

JASMINE PAOLINI SUPERFRACTOR ACES 1/1!!!

Interesting enough, the joker auto and the Super came out of the same box!

Lots of orange and gold as well but not great players and 1 black of a nobody.

Super happy with this break(PUN INTENDED)!!!
