At 70 dollars a box, you don't have to feel like you need to sell the singles for stupid prices to do well, heck I might even say that this product is just fun to bust. Certainly the best product so far of 2018, including bowman.

I agree, these do not sell well even though I think they are some of the best looking cards (last years clean black was better).
It was about 75-80 per mini. I completely forgot that Ginter X had regular Ginter insert minis in it last year. Each box had, on average, 12-13 black minis.

This year, even though print run is down overall, black mini print run is up to about 92-95.

But still.

Thank you. That mini set, along with the '14 red border set, are my favorites.

Talked to Brent a little via text this morning. I think he's right. For whatever reason, this stuff just doesn't sell well. I don't get it. I love every bit of it, and I still.wish I'd gotten some ... but the minis and autos just don't move for what they *should*.
I'm just loving no TNT and 2Bros.....not complaining at all for where the selling aspect is right now. The Ginter X sales don't last long and have a short window.....imo

My 4 boxes are strapped to a three legged turtle. I should have sprung the extra 3 bucks for a 4 legged turtle.

My auctions end tonight for the better hits except for the Judge. Waiting to see what the Judge is numbered to (redemption). From the base release the same amount of red receptions surfaced on eBay as the base, so I’m thinking I MIGHT have an SP on my hands.

Gleyber Torres Autograph will be the big one hopefully and will really determine the profitability of the case. Was fortunate to move the JD Martinez Autograph locally for $100.

Mine went smartpost via Fed Ex, then as it got closer to the final destination, it says it "Shipment information sent to U.S. Postal Service"...so I assume USPS will do the actual delivery.

BUT...the tracking number no longer seems to work...USPS doesn't recognize it. Hopefully, I'll get it tomorrow, but I'd like updated tracking to know for sure!!!

No kidding, my boxes arrived in my state Friday, and haven't moved since, scheduled for delivery Tuesday. Probably the slowest delivery process I have ever seen.

There should be some notation of the new tracking in the details section of the fedex tracking. Mine was given to USPS as well and I have the new tracking that is a USPS specfic tracking number.

If anyone wants to trade, message me or lets post a Ginter X thread in the BST. I have four boxes coming this week, and will be collecting the 1-350 set. If collation holds like it has been this year, it means I will have lots of dups and lots of holes. I still have like 4-5 cards from each of the last two years that I need filled also, as well as a few of the foil cards from last year and about 38 cards short this year on the glossy cards.

Any dups, minis, and possible reds or autos may be available.

I've had a 1/25 from regular Ginter listed for a few weeks. Someone listed one at a $225 BIN or around that a few weeks back. A couple more BO sold. And then one ended at $132. And that was that. Highest offer I received was $275. I'm holding for now, certainly don't NEED to sell. Well see what happens in October. Whatever it is, market has been soft for his cards.

Ginter X never does. Should be more interest and higher sales than they get. Wait a week and it will really drop down there. Still think its a beautiful product though
