In other words, it's not as easy to just compare product prices from year to year because the essential contents (prospects/rookies) differ.

That'd be like saying, 2002-03 Topps Chrome basketball hobby boxes are only reselling for $1-$1.3k, shouldn't 2003-04 Topps Chrome basketball hobby boxes sell for the same too?
It should sell for less since it came out more recently than 2002-03, yeah?

Safe to say on the Metazoo it was 50,000 boxes and not 10,000.

With 1st Edition being $400, I would imagine Sapphire at $600+.....this is getting rough on the wallet.

Or, if absolutely needed, you can sell a 2020 Topps Chrome Sapphire Formula 1 box to get all these boxes (2022 Topps S1 First Edition, 2 x 2022 Bowman 1st Edition, 2022 Topps Chrome Sapphire Edition) for free :P

What was it last year $350?

Either way the one thing that is nice is that Metazoo and Bowman 1st were available to Monty members first. That wouldn't have been the case last year. Plus 2 boxes per for Bowman. Which based on last years trend everything good was going down to 1 box. Hopefully going forward we continue to get a variety of presales and higher box limits. Anything of at least 15,000 boxes should be 2 per account or more. Which again last year was not the case. There were way more boxes of 2020-21 UEFA Sapphire and it was only 1 per account.

Between what it looks like is hopefully happening with more products and boxes for members and less for the bots and the potential auctioning of certain products with Fanatics/Topps I can't wait for the Fanatics full takeover. Panini has done nothing but rake customers over the coals to continue to feed every cent to their small group of good buddies for quite awhile now. It can't be worse when Fanatics takes over.

Considering it was limited to 10,000 boxes per order for the public sale, I think you're probably correct.

Yes, very good sign that MC members are getting pre-sales for items that were not included in the pre-sales last year. Hopefully members will get pre-sale opportunities for future hobby releases such as UEFA chrome, F1 Lights Out, MZ Sapphire, etc. Lots of good things to come this year.

Agree. It's really no skin off Topps' back to give more pre-sales to MC. Just increases the desire for ppl to renew and they're able to move and promote products MC ppl otherwise wouldn't necessarily care about.

This might be the first bit of positivity I've ever seen from you. Are you feeling ok?

Sorry but this isn’t true, Mike has confirmed that the print run is lower than series 0. Much closer to 10k print run than 50k. Please quit spreading false information.

Haha damn. Well, I'm sure you've done pretty good with the singles (or can do good with them should you still be holding any).

What's the print run going to be on Metazoo 1st edition? Did they even have a 1st edition for series 0? Why does Topps put out 1st edition after the regular edition? Shouldn't 1st edition come first?
