First purchases of a newly released single getting WAAAYYYY over the likely steady state price? Never heard of her.

LVDan · 06-26-2020, 01:13 PM

You gotta get that $20- might be the only sellable card in the box.

marl1220 · 06-26-2020, 01:22 PM

Another listing had the Robert RC as "newly printed."

Thanks man. Just have to decide if I want to put in the effort. :/

Houdini is selling these no problem for $200 for Jumbos...What could you pull other than Robert SP/Auto/Low numbered parallel that would be worth it?

Autos and patch relics.. but as far as base parallels, not much.

marl1220 · 06-26-2020, 02:34 PM

Just got back from my LCS. I stop in to talk with the owner, he's a good guy, at least once a week. i usually try to buy something. Even if it's just supplies. He was telling me that his wholesaler literally cut his order in half just so he could sell them online himself at jacked up prices. These wholesale people are dirt bags at best. I did end up buying a hobby box, after telling myself I wouldn't, just so I could support the LCS. I got a decent price, $84, as well so I don't feel too dirty.

Even then you'd have to hit a top tier name in the reverence or auto relic set.

I just don't get it.

jeremiahpreston · 06-26-2020, 03:04 PM

The market is crazy... My LCS sold out of the Jumbo's he had at $275 per box and the standard hobby was sold out at $140 per box... I was thinking that the $70 from Topps direct was crazy but I just have to admit that I am clearly the "stupid one" and don't see the "clear value" in this...

Of course I thought that $150 was rich for Gypsy Queen this year only to watch to clime to $200 for a Hobby and $37 for a Blaster...

Gurds · 06-26-2020, 04:05 PM

Just opened my jumbo box. It. Was. Rough.

Also all the inserts, parallels and hits are all at the back of the pack instead of in the middle like normal.

marterburn · 06-26-2020, 04:07 PM

I bought 2 relic boxes & 2 hangers pre-sale from WM because I had a $25 off $45 coupon from the Bowman debacle.

It's now delayed. Also water is wet.

Hangers in stock on target.com

With 15% sale and 5% red card, came to $89 per 10 hangers shipped to the house.

Opened a jumbo and a hobby that I’d preordered this spring. One Robert base and one Robert 1985. And that’s about it. Another reminder of why I should just stick to singles.

For those that need a link.

Also, don't forget to order in quantities of 4, not 5, with the Toy coupon. You only get the 15% off for the first 4... Rinse, repeat, etc. 6 times per day..

jrutledge · 06-26-2020, 04:26 PM

Just opened my first box of jumbo.

1x Robert
1x Manufactured Relic
1x Trout Jersey Relic with a smashed in corner (everything else in the pack was fine)
0x Auto

Beating the odds!

redscollector24 · 06-26-2020, 04:39 PM

What’s the toy code?

unk1eM · 06-26-2020, 04:40 PM

Stopped by LCS as no stores had anything. Bought 6 random hobby packs. Surprised to see more rookies than it sounded like were included. Got a judge relic /199- pass. A Rockies team card ‘76- a team parallel, just great, but then saw a rookie logo. It was Robert. and the banner was gold.

Gradek · 06-26-2020, 04:48 PM

So, I pulled #388 SSP Ted Williams. Not listed on checklist though.

Probably a pretty big pull. What are the last 3 digits on the bottom back of the card? 116? Maybe 117?

And all was well.

Congrats!

Can anyone post a picture of the odds and NPN from a Jumbo Hobby pack? I haven't seen them, unless I missed it.
