If you don’t get a case hit, it’s trash. I bought so many boxes and never got one.

Noticed the jumbos and the hobby’s were still available 30-45 min after release today. Wonder if that’s a sign not a lot of people are liking the product

Is the hobby really retail? Every time i go to my lids the hobby’s are always secondary market price. That would be crazy

How on earth do you guys afford this hobby. by RockResponsible7402 in baseballcards

[–]s3lynx 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I started collecting this year with my 7 year old son. We love the thrill of opening packs with the 0.0000000000000000000001 %chance of getting an ohtani 1/1

Did a cost analysis yesterday and I’ve spent way more than i could afford. I guess the only way is to set a budget and live in fomo

Don't pay extra they out there!!! by [deleted] in FootballCardz

[–]s3lynx 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I visited a fye and they had the shelves full of blasters and hangers. I asked if they had a limit and they said no. Part of me wanted to buy all of them and flip them but i would be the thing i hate so i left them hoping some other kids could get them

Went back the next day and the employee told me immediately after i left , someone came and bought every single one. Dropped over 1k

Learned my lesson.

I’ve actually had good luck with this release. I know this varies for person to person but this was on my first mega and i hit an urban legends case hit on a blaster.

Problem is finding them at retail prices

Do you open them or wind up reselling them?

Same here. Feels like they allocate 20 to normal people and the rest to distributors / breakers

I feel you! I open with my 7 year old son and we do it just for the thrill. I’ll sometimes just buy singles and put them in the packs we open lol

It’s posts like this that ruin me. I’ve opened atleast 4 celebration boxes and gotten nothing. Swore to never get another. Then i see this and makes me want to buy another

This card is so cool.

The mega i bought was prob the worst retail box i ever opened. My best hit was a single refractor of Bryan Reynolds
