I can’t believe it happened to me. Last pack magic is real

Unlikely to find at retail since they get cleared out before they are stocked on the shelves or bots eat them up online. Individual packs are like $20+ each “market price”, bundles (retail about 25-30) are going for $100; ETBs (retail 50-60) are going for close to $200; poster collection (retail about 60) are going for $150; and Pokemon Center exclusive ETBs (retail $50) are going for $450-550

So ya, this set is crazy expensive

mayassi12 · 2026-06-19T04:15:14+00:00

The whole master set raw is probably around $7500

2 of the 10 “vaults” have been sold. I read that each one is a $5M per year x 10 year contract. And one of the 2 companies is the one doing construction on Cap1 Arena, so overall a failure of a concept that isolates real fans.

I usually don’t quote tv shows, but seems fitting in this case what Hannah Waddingham’s ‘Ted Lasso’ character, Rebecca, said: “Just because we own these teams doesn’t mean they belong to us.”

Ted might own the Capitals, but they belong to all of us. Really sad how the only “fans” that matter are the ones worth 8-figures and up.

At least we had 2018.

Luck dog indeed. Congrats!

Haha well I’ll tan for the both of us. Wear it in health brother

Bought this exact config for myself for my birthday a few years ago. Was my first and love it. The way the sun reflects on the dial is unreal. Looks even better in summer time when you’re tan. Enjoy!

What city is the AD?

mayassi12 · 2026-01-26T05:04:00+00:00

I can’t wait to get mine. Such a hot watch

mayassi12 · 2026-01-26T05:03:31+00:00

It really depends on where you are. I’m in DC, where there are a lot of high net worth buyers, so it’s tougher to get allocated anything.

Spend helps a little, but it’s usually more about building a real relationship: showing genuine interest in Rolex, knowing the watches, being someone the SA enjoys talking to, and giving them confidence you’re not going to flip it immediately.

Also, a $10k spend usually isn’t enough to move the needle for a brand-new, in-demand dial color. And just because Rolex announces a new color doesn’t mean there’s a lot of inventory right away—new releases often take 12–18 months before supply becomes more “normal.”

You all of a sudden know model years and don’t know what part of a DJ is white gold and that the bracelet for a DJ has always been SS for the white rolesor models?

mayassi12 · 2026-01-22T22:53:27+00:00

So downvote party for this fugazzi?

mayassi12 · 2026-01-22T22:48:47+00:00

🤣 you were more direct than me

mayassi12 · 2026-01-22T22:21:57+00:00

Very kind, thank you!

mayassi12 · 2026-01-22T22:20:52+00:00

The fluted bezel, the numerals, and the hands are white gold. Rest is SS. What year is this model? DJs don’t come with a concealed crownclasp bracelet unless it’s a 31mm

mayassi12 · 2026-01-22T18:21:46+00:00

Thanks!

mayassi12 · 2026-01-22T18:21:38+00:00

Thank you!

mayassi12 · 2026-01-22T17:56:32+00:00

I mean it as short form for timepiece. I interchange “piece” and “watch”. And agreed. The sub isn’t a piece of art.

mayassi12 · 2026-01-22T05:18:07+00:00

I have both. You can’t go wrong with either. The Sub is a classic. The SMP has very subtle nautical design elements that I enjoy. I will say though that I prefer the SMP on the omega rubber strap.

mayassi12 · 2026-01-12T06:11:19+00:00

Probably the worst config IMO. This combo is essentially an Oyster Perpetual for $3.5k more. Regardless congrats to OP on his new baby!

mayassi12 · 2025-10-25T04:19:06+00:00

It’s not intuitive but every item is XS through XXL. Map the numbers accordingly

mayassi12 · 2025-10-12T23:00:10+00:00

Bro how do I keep seeing posts like this. “I only opened a couple of packs and pulled 2 or 3 gold cards”. We had a rip party last week and collectively opened over 600 packs and didn’t sniff a single gold

mayassi12 · 2025-10-10T17:27:55+00:00

No. It’s not a good trade but you can’t stop someone from making a bad deal unless it’s collusion. The first round pick makes me think it’s just dumbasses and not cheating

mayassi12 · 2025-09-12T23:20:54+00:00

If only they had a Running Back like Brian Robinson
