Bought 20. I'm sure I got toasted. Really nothing notable.

This thing is a straight cash grab. 330 X 499 = 164,670 packs. That is $2.47 million dollars just from the blue wave parallels.

Wait until the ruby wave, followed by pink and purple ice parallels come out.

You'd think they'd reinvest that money into some sort of infrastructure to make this thing go.

But nope.

Bought 3 to add to my pile of unopened packs. No idea why.

Why would they do that? They can sell out while putting in minimal effort as required. Influencers and podcasts are pumping this stuff again. I actually heard someone say last week that it was the easiest NFT platform they had used. Really astounding stuff.

If I’m Panini, I just keep making as much of this crap as I can while I still have the license. Cheaper and easier to produce than physical cards, and they keep all of the profit.

$15 packs with lower minted NFTs used to sell out in less than 10 minutes.

I forgot about this and went to the site hoping they would be sold out and I would be not be able to buy any.

Does anyone really care about the challenge cards of Stockon/Barkley?

They already have the infrastructure. That is the most infuriating part. They are too cheap to link it to physical.

There’s very little demand for the blue waves so far on the marketplace, so not surprising.

Sold my Conley for $15 and (challenge) rondo for $30. I was able to list first though for the first time ever. It's just not fun anymore selling these. It has become a total grind just to break even.

I've sold 2 of 20 so far. Had the ability to list pretty quickly, but just no bites.

Which influencer pumped Panini NFTs? I’d love if someone important just did that

Because eventually it will collapse with the current model.

There is almost no tokenization of these items yet. A few poorly run challenges, but nothing more than they. They are simply collectables.

At least with TopShot you constantly have challenges and TS scores that gamify it and can lead to a few easy profit opportunities if you play it right.

Somethin' like a cross between Teddy Aguhob and Kaboom Mystery Packs. I got that Givenchy denim flow.

They seem to have fixed the issue with the listing delay. Now it's generally within a few minutes.

These Blues won't sell out anytime soon, though at $15 they may eventually. Unlike the Baseball Green packs for $99 that they sadly enough just brought back again.

The Marvels come out tomorrow and I would expect those to sell out rather quickly since there are only 19 players and these were very successful last year.

I might go in for the Marvels again. I completed last year's as I thought it might have some cache being the first of the Panini products, kind of like early TopShot releases have more utility. I kind of like the designs.

I haven't 100% decided but I'm leaning towards passing on Net Marvels just because I'm thinking it won't be easy money like it was last go around.

That's where I'm at. There's so little market movement. I don't think you have much chance to profit unless you hit something big. If there's any meat on the bone, it's minimal.

Definitely in on the Net Marvels!

All cards are challenge cards and only limited to 5 packs. Checklist looks good, Inserts are the way to go with Panini NFTs ….

These are going to do well. Every Marvel needed for the challenge.

Really surprised these didn't sell out within a minute. Not great for Panini.

Snagged five but can’t open them. I always do this to myself. Buy some of these packs and the immediately regret it.
