I'm one of those dudes. I sent mine to Panini in March and have not received an update.

I still want to know the updates on people that sent in for replacements. No one's really chimed in with anything, so I'll just take that to mean they're still waiting...

This happened many times. In fact, I was happy when Sekou was off-centered because then I had a better chance of getting a centered Zion. If the first few cards were dead centered - guaranteed o/c Zion/Ja.

Troof. Unfortunately the print line cards are a much tougher secondary market sell than the severe OC's. I have a stack of about 25 print line rookies out of 4 sets. Feelsbadman.

I can't tell what's going on with the new system. Mine say not received now.

Unless things have changed back, David hasn't been in customer service for almost two years now. He's on the Panini Instant side I believe. Good dude.

Could very well be. He handled an an email for a mis-delivered FOTL shipment late last year (even included bonuses for the hassle), FWIW. Definitely the best guy there for actually responding to inquiries or at least getting them in the right hands.

I contacted someone at Panini over a potentially damaged box (eventually opened...no damage).

At the time, Panini said they were not responsible for any damage to this product and if I wanted to get a refund or open a case, I would have to take it up with Fanatics.

Others have said they were getting their print line Silver Waves replaced by Holos. But unconfirmed so far.

This was the one that peaked my interest. He said his replacement said holo on the online status.

If he did actually get those, that's highway robbery.

This.

The new system terrifies me with cards I already had at Panini before the site change. Prior, it would show the card and parallel version (ex: 2019-20 Optic Lebron James Checkerboard). Now it simply says 2019-20 Optic Lebron James.

I'm scurred. Too shi*ty of a company to trust with something like this.

Blowout offer up to $300/per

tolrobb · 05-14-2020, 09:36 AM

dammit, why didn't I but 500 of these? one of these days, someone is going to have to go back and bump all of the nerds who said not to buy these.

The logic was somewhat sound, it's that we are not living in logical times. I'm just glad I bought the five I did.

Yup. I'm just thankful I got a few.

Back then, it seemed great (especially with the coupons) and then they kept popping up on Fanatics so ppl thought Panini was endlessly running the presses on these and no one knew what "exclusive stock" meant, good or bad.

Congrats to anyone who got even 1. Whether you flipped, sold singles, or just kept for your PC...you won.

How many products can you say that about?

I'm saying how many products are you 100% guaranteed to make money on regardless if you sell sealed or opened and sold for singles?

Even if you bought 2019-20 Prizm Hobby at MSRP, you're not guaranteed a profit if you sold the singles.

Spacemanspif · 05-14-2020, 11:21 AM

Meh. I cancelled an order of 4 boxes and have no regrets. You can’t go backwards in time and make decisions based on current information. If someone in January was like “100 days from now, 20% of the country will be out of work, but these are going to be worth $400, and people will be fighting each other over bass cards and inserts!” we’d all laugh and call that person crazy.

Honestly I would be 100% at peace selling all my stuff now and walking away with 400% profit. I have 2 of these left sealed and more than covered my buy in already. Feels great

Tim · 05-14-2020, 12:22 PM

I watched a seller sell one for $300 yesterday and then relist a brand new one for $275 right after. Same seller. So weird.

Looks real nice when centered and w/o printing issues!
