Not great I’d say. Nothing tells me that Panini intends to do what is necessary for this to take off.

I actually don't necessarily disagree. Curious to your thoughts on what they could do though.

One of the reasons I don’t buy any packs outside of insert ones is the chance at getting three scrubs. The checklist should be more limited. I’d rather them do variations of Star player than have every single player. The marketplace is also a ghost town. Tying payments to PayPal is a mistake. Their fee structure is a rip off. They shouldn’t be limited parallels to only parallel packs. Also, maybe mix in some physical incentives.

PayPal is the biggest negative with this platform. I know they have a wallet on the roadmap but until then it is a terrible way to transact.

If you sell a $1 card, it's basically like giving it away.

Gold Vinyls went on sale today and not a peep here. Seems like this thing is dying.

They sold out, it was a Dutch auction and hit the floor at 200. Was able to add 1 at that price, only got one of the "High Volume" errors. I still don't have the pack though.

Nobody said anything because they wanted to load up at the floor.

I agree, but it seems like they are acknowledging that. Those packs at 200 means they need to drop the prices on everything else if they want them to sell.

Well if they sold out that means someone is buying these...

but year, $200 a pack is not good.

I knew about it and didn't buy any. The amount of packs they are releasing for non-existent user growth has efficiently crashed the market.

Agreed. Also didn't buy any.

There are still ways they can save/revive the project, but remains to be seen if they will/care to do so.

This 100%. It’s insane how much product they are pushing out every week and how with each week, there is more and more garbage.

What garbage? The GV packs were pretty good value at $200.
A lottery ticket with a guaranteed #1/1, 10 x Blue Waves, 5 x Pulsar and 9 x Base.
It’s Series 2 so the chase is more about the rookies, but it’s a fun rip at that price point.

Also those NFL gifts should be airdropped soon!

They are putting out thousands of cards that are worth $0 every week. We don’t need cards of every player on the checklist. We don’t need parallels every week. They are squeezing every cent out of this thing. If we look at how Top Shot is doing right now, I have almost no faith in the long term prospects of this as of right now.

Thanks, Panini for my blockchain gift pack. I’ll treasure my 3 defensive players forever as they gather dust in my virtual collection.

I think that has to do a lot with the price though. If Gold Vinyl packs hit 200, the other ones should be way cheaper:

Base - $5
Blue Wave - $10
Silver - $25
Green Ice - $50

Their pricing is ridiculous right now and pushing people away. Not to mention how high the fees are when cashing out on PayPal.

They should just do away with base packs since base are found in the other packs.

Or if they charge $5/10 for base, they should give ppl 10 of them, not 3.

It's funny the WFU pack turned into a "Holiday" gift pack.
