How many packs, 12?

Hmm, I'd say $60 would do it for me.

I don't think you are gonna get a lot of help here, most people love to joke about stuff like that.

Personally, I'll be down at 500 and at 600 is a maybe.

I'd probably buy a case at under $10k. I dont watch prices that closely but the overlords here still have them at $12.5k

Rainbow degenerate here...

Prizm checklist this year has the typical Fast Break and Choice parallels. But I also noticed there are new "Factory Set Hyper Prizms" and "Premium Factory Set Prizms" parallels this year. Anyone have any release info on these? I only see Fast Break listed as Sept TBD on BO and Cardboard Connection...

I bought a Mojo Prizmatic card on eBay that has multiple light scratches on the back. I'm guessing this was caused by the collation machine. I've noticed this has been a common issue with optic and prizm cards in recent years. Why can't Panini prevent this from happening to valuable inserts?

Because of how fast they have the presses running, and the fact that they need to run 24/7 and still end up being released a year late.

Interesting about the prizm sets, looks like this is Panini's new way of diluting the products and making a couple extra million off every set.

Panini will die and we will be blessed with the blowhards from Fanatics. Going from the really bad to the worst.

Anyone notice that purple pulsars /35 are in cello packs this year? Does this mean that gravity feeds are no more?

I saw that too - I figured they nix'd the retail boxes and put the pink pulsars into the cellos since people are finding gravity feed boxes this year. So maybe pink pulsars are in gravity feeds instead of purple pulsars?

Until I see a pink pulsar come out of a cello, I’m thinking this might just be an error on the packaging by Panini. They actually just did this with the 2021 Prizm Draft cello packs - those have the information for 2020-21 Mosaic cellos by mistake. I have a couple retail boxes on the way, so I know they made those, and if people are finding gravity feeds, then that should account for both the products that have historically had the pink & purple pulsars.

You guys obviously don't know the product. If I had the option, I would gladly buy 10-20 of them at that price. Resale on those in a few months should easily be $400-500

Sucks that Covid/Printing issues/Laziness ruined Prizm - the fun thing about Prizm is it comes out before the season - you get a chance to get players before their first game and the ability to dream on guys - and when Prizm was Topps prices - the ability to really prospect - definitely miss the fun of 2018 Prizm

Prizm had been coming out late November or early December for years. 16-17 or before.

Good point. I only saw the packman break of cellos on his channel - will probably need to see a few cello cases ripped to know if they're in there or not.

These packs were friggin terrible. I bought 38 loose packs, and ended up with ONE rockets rookie and a signed Fernando Bruno card. In 38 packs, thats all that was worth it. Yeah some silver patrick beverly, 75th anniversary robert williams... but man am I happy I paid some crackhead $3 to scan a soda bottle and walk out.

JK btw, but what a terrible rip. Didn't even get a base Lebron, Curry, Harden, Durant, or Irving. BASE!

The fanatics blasters were always Megas in blaster packaging. Usually about twice the number of packs/cards as regular blasters.
