Default Contenders FOTL

What do you think is a good price to pay today to get a good ROI?

Cool Thanks. I’m not too familiar with it. Just the little bit of research I did looked like there were some big hits from last years

This isn't football, seems like more people don't value the product line in basketball like they do in football. I'd steer clear.

I wonder what is the ceiling for this product. I’m pretty sure this will be sold out even though Contenders is not really a good product. Will it drop to the bottom. I’d prefer Optic contenders instead of the regular contender.

Contenders is a great product and still sells well. Last year's contenders is the last place that you can find Kobe live on card autographs.

I miss the hate - on card rookie autographs in pro uniforms - what is not to like?. Most years it is two autographs per box.

Target price for FOTL is anything under $700 - the closer you can get to 500 the better but I don't think it ever gets that far. I think sellout around $625-$650

Is this Contenders an exclusive release only on the Panini site?

I'm definitively out on this one. Will be shocked if it goes under 600, I don't think I can do even 500 on them.

Realistic price on Hobby is more like $550-600. This will probably sell out around there or just above I think.

They are barely moving at 550s...I'll just wait and pick it up during the offseason

For sure. I see regular hobby at under $600 in other places.

Sensing dangerous waters on this one since Hobby is priced too high and 2020 NBA market in general is adjusting down.

Contenders cracked ice is one of the best parallels in any sport.
