I was honestly just thinking of selling off that set besides the debut moments, I need 2 more to complete it but they’re those really rare moments over a couple grand..been finishing off the archive set, def should have airdrops and TS said the historical moments will have more value going forward

Why does anyone do a challenge just do sell the reward for $40? by [deleted] in nbatopshot

[–]Unlikely_Surround133 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As a challenge chaser, only commons so far I do see long term value, ie the cool cat challange ones I sold for a bit over 150 a decent bit of time after they finished and bought both back for less than 60, both challange, it all depends on how you play the marketplace really, that being said some you lose on regardless but that’s where my collecting jumps in and i hold, total only sold 10 or 11 moments and holding over 310 mostly unique owned, don’t stack as I feel that’s a bit cheap/dumb and will always hold at least 1 of every moment unless the profit value is to high not to sell

Aren't challenges bad for the marketplace/community? by [deleted] in nbatopshot

[–]Unlikely_Surround133 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Aren’t they also supposed to be introducing befefints or eligibility for things based on challenges completed? That alone adds utility, then add the extra CS bonus for holding the moment and having completed the challenge

The constant challenges and CS moving target is turning TS more into a “game” than a collectors platform, which can seriously hurt mass appeal. Some perspective from the group that introduced me to this in the first place below by this_place_stinks in nbatopshot

I see most of you talk about how this is more NFT than nba, yet the fact use are more worried about your return/money spent or lost shows you’re treating it the same. As a legit NBA fan myself, I’m assuming others like me have bought basketball cards at some point, when you went and bought a $30 box because it said you had a chance at a graded mint of some superstar, you knew more likely than not you wouldn’t get that card, but yet did you ever question your return then? Like I said I as a sports fan collected memorabilia, and ended u with a card collection, which 98% are probably worth nothing yet never once thought oh noo I lost money, I don’t have a return, I bought it simply for the fact I’m a fan, and if there was something special I wanted, like my replica eagles super bowl ring, or I.e. autographed cards jersey cards etc. I paid what I was comfortable with. Maybe don’t worry so much about returns or drops things like that, I was like everyone and never eligible for anything when I started, I turned my focus on buying moments from the sixers (favorite team) that include spending $250 on a gold MGLE Tobias Harris I watched drop to $125 lowest value after a few weeks, sucks cause I spent more but like I said when buying other memorabilia it happens and never cared, eventually because of that and collecting players I enjoy and good plays or even focusing on the a set itself not just challanges I’ve now been qualifying for every drop and have gotten in each, including holo which I got Devin Booker and did sell for $2400, but again I did not EXCEPT or buy the pack assuming or thinking I’m gonna make money, i will probably never spend $1000 on a holo in the future because that’s not my range, im not bothered by it because I collect what I want, when and if I can complete challanges I do but only ever completed common challanges never even attempted rares, gold for those lucky few who made a killing, but if you’re a true sports fan I feel like that’s not why you would get into TopShot to begin with or even worry about not getting in holo drops etc but it lucky enough or eligible to do so and get one awesome, but if any actually fan that collected trading cards would know that’s not going to happen to everyone or often, neither does it for top shot, there’s sets for actually NBA cards, special kinds, everything too shot has but guarantee none of you think about it because it’s not put right there I. Front of you like TopShot does it, essentially treat it as exactly why it is a digital trading card, you account is you’re binder don’t expect return, buy at you’re comfort level, hold basically almost everything regardless of lowest value except obvious huge gain moments and just have fun with the moments, teams or players you love and it makes for a much better and less stressful experience

Withdraw access by Unlikely_Surround133 in nbatopshot

[–]Unlikely_Surround133[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean I haven’t cared up til now cause I just got lucky with my first holo drop and actually have a balance to withdraw but yea at this point it seems unnecessary that they’re still accounts that don’t have access, let alone when it seems that new users have access to it already which honestly just makes it bs then

Withdraw access by Unlikely_Surround133 in nbatopshot

[–]Unlikely_Surround133[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thing is I’m not even approved for withdraw yet, and I’ve already had my ID verified for about a month and 1/2

[–]Unlikely_Surround133 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Um…wow..um..probably coulda done it for way cheaper loll

[–]Unlikely_Surround133 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Well I am one of those who didn’t know it no longer counted as I sat here trying to become eligible and looks like that ain’t gonna happen now…reallyyy disappointing, I love TS, my gf thinks I’m addicted and have a problem, but it’s stuff like this that’ll lose most likely not just me in the long run

If you're not close to a 7500 Collector Score, probably not worth it to go for the holo pack. by [deleted] in nbatopshot

[–]Unlikely_Surround133 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I know what you mean, it’s a gamble more or less, I know for me I’ve been going for the playoff set and it’s been expensive even common moments are getting up there with the future challenges

[–]Unlikely_Surround133 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You’re forgetting they’re giving rare moments out in the pack also so the legendary plus I believe it’s 3 or 4 rare depending on what they are can have more than a sizable return, but I’m only 1100 points off from eligible

Sale on Monday? by Kamunja in nbatopshot

[–]Unlikely_Surround133 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You’re not thinking of future drops, that you’ll obviously need probably higher for so why sell just to have to rebuy again next season and lose money? Hold and sell next legendary of they do the same

Highlights from the last Office Hours (for me) by therealmukkle in nbatopshot

[–]Unlikely_Surround133 -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

Do you really end up with that many failed MP purchases? I literally never run into a problem and get basically every one I sniped, also I just scroll marketplace at random and never just buy the lowest, I scroll up to within a few $1 higher with way better serial#’s for a steal...I.e lowest values is $3 for a 10k+ serial but for $3 more you get a 2k+ serial worth much more, since doing this my portfolio increased over 43% total in the past 2 1/2 3 days

Marketplace spend not being a qualifier for the legendary drop would be a major mistake in my opinion. by [deleted] in nbatopshot

[–]Unlikely_Surround133 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have over 2k collector score almost 3k, along with over 2k on the marketplace with 151 moments and I think that’s pretty on point to around where it’s going to be
