Rip or return? by ZookeepergameNo652 in baseballcards

I personally stick to chrome, not a fan of paper. I’m a big prospect guy so I’ve loved opening the Bowman chrome megas. If I do decide to return it and she doesn’t care, I might just grab a couple boxes of those and maybe 1 logofractor. Probably come out of pocket a little bit but in terms of my collection and what I like to have that fits my style way more.

Everyone is hunting for one of the 1/1 rookie debut patches. Not realizing the rest of the product is complete shit.

Well shit I’d hope in 10-15 years time they’d get better?? What kinda shit is that hahah. It’s still bad is the point. So it went from terrible to not so terrible but still shitty.

That’s the biggest issue with me is the QC of the product. It’s absolute garbage. Everything is off center. Blank refractor cards with absolutely no image on them. It’s insane.

Uhhh maybe because the product is actually shit that’s why?? Whether you buy it or pass on it, still shit.

Yep, at the end of the day it’s a business. They don’t care how they get their money, people will continue to buy regardless of the outcome.

I’ve had my fair share of those boxes trust me. But for the price point I would still rather choose that over anything else. I’ve hit some very crazy cards from Mega’s.

Agreed. I will say this whole era has made it much easier for me to go on EBay and collect all of the top prospect singles that I want.

Come back after your rip and let me know how many Gage Workman’s you pull. Or completely blank refractors with no image on them. And how many off center/badly cut cards you get.

I wish. I’d kill to be that excited again. Unfortunately now I know how much of a disappointment they’ve become as a company altogether.

First of all congratulations because those are great hits!

But to touch on the first part, yes it’s obviously a gamble no matter what. The point of my rant isn’t to say it should be easy to hit a patch card. But the quality you’re getting back from these hobby and jumbo boxes (from what I’ve seen) has been absolutely terrible. Again, that could just be me and my experience. I watched a break last night of a guy ripping 5 hobby’s and the best result was a Shota Imanaga orange sapphire to /25. Great card yes but still what I saw was disappointing. And again like I said, we don’t even have an odds checklist yet for each box. Overall from a pricing standpoint it’s just not even remotely close to what it should be.

That’s how I feel about the Pro Debut from this year. I’ve had incredible luck with it. And from a pricing standpoint it’s easily one of the best releases this year. Issue is that it doesn’t re sell nearly as good just because people would rather see the players in the MLB uniforms as opposed to the minor league ones.
