Mine were perfectly centered and amazing in hand. Hit a Ja in a green pack.
Might sell one Zion now

I opened 9 of my 10 sets. What worries me the most keeping sealed over time is the cards are blocked together and I could see issues with surfaces if you plan on holding long term.

I sold about half of the top rookies and made all the money back plus some. The green packs were mostly a bust, pulled 1 Ja with fingernail imprint on the back. I was very fortunate with condition, had 1 Ja and Zion with a big print line on the front other than that the surface and centering were really good across the board. A few had some issues on the back but nothing too crazy. 1 of the 9 green packs all 5 cards had the major print line.

In my mind it was a no brainer breaking a few and selling individual. The cards are really awesome in person. My rationale for busting out top players and rookies from 9 sets were for condition purposes. I would rather have them in a sleeve and top loader. Would hate to open a set in 5 years with all cards stuck together.

Also think of it like this, this set has an exclusive stock that probably wasn't too cheap to print. It's over 200 cards. A hanger box was what, 20 cards? If I were running a business, I'd be printing more hanger boxes like crazy yet they don't seem to be doing that.

It doesn't matter how much it matters if there were. As long as there is a finite card either auto or numbered you can't just keep printing the retail set was my point so it's really apples and oranges comparing them to this set.

The only thing they could do is as you suggested just have a retail sets with no autos or numbered cards possible and I think you are right that would be a huge success from a business standpoint with people wanting so much product.

The Ja alone pretty much pays for the set at retail price.

Let that sink in...

I'm curious if anyone has ordered through NBA store??

[bloomie6]

Anyone get a sealed case of 16? How much do you think it would sell for?

I just tried looking into the 5 I ordered on 12/31. I used the Track My Order feature on the Fanatics website, and when I enter the order number along with my e-mail address and zip code it says that it can't match the order. Huh. I don't love that. But the money was taken out of my PayPal...

Do this, go to the Fanatics live chat, then where is my order, then email, then I don’t have an order number. It will automatically search for all orders associated with your email. It should be there, just look for the date you ordered. Then you’ll have the order number to track it going forward. If it’s not there, IDK.

I had to go back through several pages but I vaguely remembered this advice. Thanks. I actually got an e-mail with the order number, so surprised the usual tracker didn't work for me, but I was able to find my order through the live chat. Says Processing, with expected ship date of 03/24.

Opened my 5 and the packs, looked at one box of Ja and Zion both reasonably well centered, one slightly less than the other.

I think a sealed case is 15, i had one of my orders of 15 boxes come in and it’s in what appears to be a sealed case. It says “fanatics box set” on the side and has panini tape.

My 12 boxes also came in a box sealed with Panini tape, but there was exactly enough space in the box for 4 more sets. There was also a sticker on the box with another blank sticker over it. I could read the sticker on the box through the blank sticker, and it had the product info for the set and "16-Box Case" written on it. So, I think a full case is 16, but they send out large orders in those boxes and just put a blank sticker over the case info if there aren't actually 16 sets inside.

Finally got shipping notice for 20 bought with the coupon on 12/31. Happy days.

After purchasing I immediately used fan bucks earned to grab 1 extra on a separate order, no notice on that one yet.

[rw7183]

Are these considered sealed wax? Can we sell on BO Forums?

[YeahBuddy]

busted 2 ... and combined had 55 cards with printing errors. the print lines in 2 diff areas. ugh.

[jdbrak]

notification for 8 ordered 12/30 with discount on way

[lbailey]

Rifleman69!!!! I just got my shipping confirmation. I called fanatics and asked them to cancel your order. All in all a great day!!!!!

[bigjbasketball]

Good to see more of the discounted orders shipping! My two are still pending, but hopefully they are in the line to be shipping soon.

[wilsunshines]

Is there any rhyme or reason to how these are being fulfilled? I see people saying their 12/30 & 12/31 orders have shipped, but I have not received any notification about my orders from those two days.

[fadster]

I haven't got any shipping notification for two orders placed on 12/31, one with voucher and one without. Still hopeful that they'll ship eventually.

[theleica]

For all those complaining and worried, I just got shipping on all my orders I got directly through Fanatics for 30% off.....

[Bob Ross]

12/30 and most 12/31 orders still MIA. Panini continues to bend ol' Bob over on Optic.
