Got my shipping notification here too. Looks like FedEx has it according to the tracking #. No brainer buy.

What are your thoughts of the box saying 2020 but the cards looking like 2021? Either way the demand will be huge.

I doubt the box would say 2020 but have cards that have a 2021 design. It's either 2020 box with the 2020-design cards or it was mistakenly labeled online as 2020 but really is 2021 with the 2021 design. We'll see tomorrow when some MC members get their boxes.

Did I see this right, people are paying $800+ on eBay for these F1 sapphire boxes? I’m sure there’ll be a lot of cancellations/returns, but still. This stuff is just nuts!

Neither of you are going to regret it.

(and F1 is pretty legit, check out the race this Sunday morning on ESPN2 if your just sitting in the house waiting for baseball to come on, normally on live between 8-11AM)

I did pretty well on UEFA. In retrospect I should have kept it sealed. I’ve learned my lesson now with F1 and the Jeter boxes and plan to stash them away for a while.

Still looking for 2019 set 1 sealed with original box and bubble wrap if anyone has one.

Set 1 is the only one I dont have as well.....I just need to bite the bullet and buy it.


EDIT- I lied, the original Set 1 is the one I am missing, which I believe is 2018

Shortly after PSsA shut down my brain decided it would be a good time to prep all my MC sets for grading. I realized how dumb it was to sell the first set

Edit: if year 1 of the club was 2018, that’s the one I need.

My thought process was a bit different, but I sold mine and the auto (Conforto, which to this day may be better then all my autos except an Alvarez RC auto last year). I have looked back into buying but I am going to have to do it 1 by 1 it looks like.

Good news is I have kept all autos and sets since, and I still have a box they sent a pin in, so I am going to take the pin out once I acquire these cards 1 by 1 and throw them in that extra box. The early sets could be good keeps in my opinion for down the road.

So I’ll just ask what we are all thinking... what are the good cards in the F1 Sapphire boxes?

There is a lot.

Lewis Hamilton is the greatest champion in F1 History. He is the #1 Guy. Clear cut. He is the Mickey Mantle of F1

Max Verstappen is the clear #2. He has the car to challenge Hamilton. He is essentially Mike Trout.

Lando Norris is the #3 for me. He is the upstart, you guy with flair. He isnt in the best equipment but he places well. He is Wander Franco.

The other notable guys

George Russell- He is the guy who will replace Lewis Hamilton (potential retirement) or Hamiltons teammate. Think Gleyber Torres, as Jeter is retiring

Valerie Bottas- He's Hamiltons teammate, and will steal a few wins a year. Think Roger Maris.

Mick Shumacher- His dad is the Babe Ruth of F1. But he currently is in a crap car.

Yuki Tsunoda- He is in Max Verstappen teams, pilot cars. He is a rookie with a huge following in Japan, and good results in the minors. Think Julio Rodriguez.


Hopefully I F1'd to MLB'd that for you guys.

Hamilton and Verstappen for sure. As a fan, I'll be happy as long as I get a Kimi!

It's a life goal of mine to get through an entire week of work speaking only in Kimi quotes.

"Just leave me alone I know what to do!'

"I was having a #@#@#@#@"

"Bwoah"

"It is what it is"

Edit: And for those who don't know, Kimi arguably has the largest and most dedicated fan base in F1. He and Verstappen are probably the most popular drivers on the grid.

I may end up hating you for inspiring me to rip my box now, but otherwise this is the best sports-splaining I've seen on this site.

P.S. Who's the Drew Smyly of F1 so I can openly jeer him in the event I start watching? Alternately, is there a villain of any kind?
