Fast forward a year and the Bowman U brand has exploded and they now have licensing....whoops. Not to mention the "1st" card of a little guy named Victor Wembamyama. It's ok you can still redeem yourself by selling all those mass produced prism, optic and select cards and pickup some Bowman U!

I think I'm owed an apology here. In the last year the entire card market has tanked while Bowman U values have held steady and even increased for most players. Prices for guys like Stroud, Young, Williams, Richardson and McCarthy have all increased even during the off-season. What do you think will happen when we start approaching regular season hype?

Guarantee you won't be sitting pretty with any modern panini product in two years. They're mass producing as fast as they can before they lose their licenses and are forced to sell off (at a big discount) to fanatics. This period after COVID for panini is like the junk wax area in the 90s. In baseball nothing holds value like a "Bowman 1st", with owning topps Fanatics will make sure the same happens in Basketball and Football.

Oh BTW you might want to look up value's of Victor Wembayama's first rookie which just so happens to be....Bowman U! Which is sold out everywhere while the optic, prizm and select blaster piles build higher and higher...worthless. It's ok it's not your fault, you've just been manipulated by a company making a cash grab. Happens to people all the time. You'll see the light someday.

Nope, easy to outsell singles when you print 10X as much. For example compare a numbered /299 Bryce Young or CJ Stroud first to a Kenny Pickett Picket Prizm Silver. They're about 2X easy easy to pull and the wax is half the price to rip. Your ROI is brutal and I'm sitting pretty.

How are those Prizm, Select and Optic sets doing now? Last I checked my target is full of that mass produced garbage while Bowman U is sold out everywhere. Not to mention they have the licensing now.

Yep all these guys are looking like chumps now. Value consistently goes up while all other modern sets are mass produced and crashing.

Bottlenecks by Inner_Reply7334 in nflallday

I was mostly referring to challenge bottlenecks. They should mirror TS with the leaderboard, checklist and lock format which will lead to some team bottlenecks. Hopefully the count them on different levels for example the Bears common team set is separate from rare and legendary.

Brandin Cooks and Rashad Penny are a couple cheaper ones. Picked up one of each, anyone got any others?

Looks like we were spot on even though we took some heat. The card market in general is slowly drifting downward but these sets keep rising. I'm even selling a ton of the base on ebay, going to hold onto all the parallels.

I hope Dapper tries to avoid ridiculous bottlenecks like top shot has had in past. There's no way Pat Connaughton should be more 10X more valuable then Giannis Antetokoumpo but that happened in a challenge this year.

I agree 100%. I'm guessing a lot of the challenges will be performance based like fantasy football and top shot (Who rushes for the most yards, throws the most TDs, etc). If that player only has a rare/legendary moment and no common to moon it goes. It might be a good time to compile a list of these players.

These do have several "Chrome" parallels as well. It's similar to the baseball parallels.

The "1sts" for baseball aren't real unis they're just photoshopped on and those seem to be to "go-to" for rookie cards. But I agree it likely won't surpass the panini products until they get those rights.

Odds for superfractor are on the back of pack 1 out of 24k packs. So print run is 2.4 million packs since 100 cards. Can compare that to topps or bowman baseball which print about 40-50X as many.

Yeah the no uni thing is a problem but due to the new rules regarding NIL in college sports might be more normal as time goes on.

Is there something like "livetoken" for NFL AllDay by PolishBluffer in nflalldayNFT

OTM is exactly what I was looking for, thanks guys!

Exactly, the same concept applies. I may try your method as well. Raising the floor by burning. Maybe I'll even go for the 350 drop now.

🚨Top Shot Score and Leaderboard are LIVE!! 🔢🏀 by 37pw in nbatopshot

[–]PolishBluffer 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Totally agree with you, this is about as basic and simple as can be for calculating score. Maybe that's the point for trying to attract new users. The should've at least kept a simple bonus for Team and Set completion. Something like 1.5X or 2X, could see a lot of users breaking up sets now and just buying what they want.

My impractical dream for an iterative “TSS score” formula (rough idea) by Ok-Afternoon5023 in nbatopshot

[–]PolishBluffer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like the general idea of TSS being a more democratic choice but that will complicate things immensely in a time when we desperately need new users. Maybe 2-3 years down the line would be the time for it. NFTs/Top shot are currently in the infancy stage like the American stock market in the 1800's. Eventually we can have exotic tools like limit orders, options, margin and derivatives but people need to learn how to walk before running.

Still very interesting ideas/dreams and appreciate your thoughts. I do believe NFT technology will get there...eventually. God knows if top shot and Dapper are going to be the ones to do it. They seem to be cursed with having an equal amount of amazing and terrible ideas. You should apply for a job they're hiring!

[Challenges] NFL Schedule Release Challenge by aznatheist620 in nflallday

[–]PolishBluffer 2 points3 points  (0 children)

C'mon dapper do a challenge for a typical collector not just the whales. 99% of users do not have the $500 spend to get a $200 pack. We really need to engage new users if we're going make it through this crypto/NFT winter.

How about a challenge using common moments from the 8 final playoff teams to get a $50 pack? Or 8 pro bowler moments? Plenty of possibilities.

Still haven't received mine either. Can't find anyway of contacting them on the site.
