Looking back I think the green packs selling for $100 is a no brainer SELL!! Unless you get Ja or Zion you are not going to get $100 back. I couldn't believe they are selling for $100. Of the 8 packs there were 2 sets that were duplicates just FYI. I'm assuming the 2 sealed are duplicates with Zion in them!

I'd be scared of selling singles right now, aren't they just ripe for returns in a month or so? I'm getting my five delivered today and plan on just boxing them up with my ten Fanatics Prizm blasters and selling down the line. $250 for a sealed set is ridiculous if the singles hold where they are today.

This excuse people gonna return or selling wax on eBay is the biggest myth on this board I’ve only had 1 person return for buyers remorse in about 1000 transactions on eBay. Never had a problem with people buying wax on eBay either

I'm not quite sure what you are trying to say.

With Ebays new return policy Returns are running rampant! It gives anyone trying to flip an item 30+ days to do so risk free. If they can't flip or they "change" their mind the return is granted with no questions asked and there is nothing the seller can do about it. People buying these up right now for $250 a set can easily return them in a month when all orders have been sent out and the market gets flooded. When that happens prices may drop and people aren't going to want them for the $250 they paid anymore.

I'm more worried about singles being returned personally.

My 12 boxes from Walmart were supposed to arrive yesterday, but I was not home for delivery. They did not leave a sticky slip on the door with more info like they usually do. The FedEx page tells me I can hold for delivery, sign online, etc., but then tells me the shipper (Walmart) does not allow for any of those options. Ugh. I can't just sit around waiting for FedEx to show up.

Got my 5 from fanatics over the weekend, opened the loose packs got nobody good other than Rui, almost all are o/c. Haven't looked at the singles of Ja and Zion yet.

First optic packs I was able to open this year....

Received my one set from eBay - Sportsmemorabilla for $79.99 shipped. Ordered on 02/11 and received today, not too bad. I wish I had purchased more! It is going in my storage room to marinate!

Take this info for what its worth, not much.
But I do believe this number is accurate and firmly believe they didn't sell 10k sets.

I specifically bought $1000+ in Fanatics gift cards to buy 15 sets.

I otherwise do not want any Fanatics gift cards and after this do not want to ever do business with them. I made my purchase on 12/31.

They unethically oversold at a higher price and prioritized these orders over original, 3 month presales. They held mine and others’ money for 3 months. They have shipped new orders before first. Now there are reports they oversold. This happened before. When does someone do something about the level of unethicalness this company constantly displays? Per their terms and conditions will be filing in AAA, arbitration against them for the current value of 15 sets. This whole nightmare is absolutely ridiculous and any person/company with even a small sliver of ethics would never let this happen.

When you (we) ordered at the end of December, it stated shipping in March.

That was my guess back in December - same limited number as Prizm (~7000) It would make the most sense.

Has anyone actually called Fanatics yet and spoken to a live person? I think I've read this entire thread and don't recall that happening.

I email my Acct Exec last week, he said shipping shows March still.

"just waiting until March when it is expected to ship out. As soon as they are here and packaged up, we will send you over the tracking number"

7000 sets would be good. Puts Green Wave print run in line with Purple Shock. I think Green Wave looks better, and there is more incentive to keep these sealed compared to Megas.

Pretty sure rui is the 3rd most expensive rookie (or atleast was before injury) so that’s pretty good for not hitting a Zion/ja. Culver is solid as well
