Who has the best prices on these for sale right now? Non of my LCS's got any, they are all excited about getting the breakers delight boxes of the Chrome U.

Opened my four boxes that came in today. I don't follow college football super close. I feel like I didn't do well on the color name wise except for the Maye Gold Sapphire Selection. Still a fun rip

Dallas Turner's a stud. A couple Brady Cook parallels at least have room to run.

Brady Cook has a ton of momentum right now, that's definitely a good one.

Oh man I’m loving this product. Wish I’d got more than 2 boxes. But quite happy with how this break went.

1st box

Already answered so I’ll addend - this is my best hit of the year across the big 3 sport formats. Spent way too damn much money on baseball and hit nothing close to this or even the Penix really.

Very cool.

I hit a Nix Sapphire Selections auto. Sharp looking cards.

supersaturated 12-27-2023 06:52 AM

Got back into the hobby this past year (after collecting a bit as a kid). Seems to me you’re lucky if you’re into collecting college football since BUC is the best rip for a reasonable price. I suppose if Prizm NFL were $150 a box that could be fun as well. I’ve enjoyed reading about the BUC enthusiasm on this board.

In any event, from a sapphire box pulled:

Julian Fleming /75
Dallas Turner /50
Carson Beck Auto /25

And here is a mouthful of a sentence I couldn’t have imagined meaning anything to me a year ago:

A Jo’Quavious Marks Padpadradscha

abovethesink 12-27-2023 07:33 AM

Football and light basketball guy, so I haven't seen much Bowman or any Topps in a long time for obvious reasons. I loved BUC and hate this. These cards are hideous. Is the Sapphire release generally a big deal in the baseball world?

Welcome to the BUC brotherhood! I'm glad Jo'Qua Marks the Pad graced your collection. Truly a BUC for all seasons :).

Sapphire is kind of the 1.5x of regular Bowman Chrome. A juicy bonus, and the numbered hits usually have a lot of value. Bowman baseball card designs have also been [URL="https://sportscardinvestor.s3.amazonaws.com/prod/5528_380_187_48-L"]better designed to adopt the Sapphire look[/URL] vs the BUC card design this year. It'll get better as they adapt BUC and put more in to the design.

One of the issues too is how cards are valued. In Baseball/Bowman, a base Sapphire card is great and a numbered sapphire card is thought to be quite valuable as-is, but Football cards are currently ruled mostly by Autos and QBs. I'm not sure if both prospecting and Sapphire can catch on in football collecting based on how people value the cards.

Congrats on the pap!!!!!! Picture please!

Between the big 3 sports this release has been my personal favorite of this year with bowman chrome baseball sapphire right behind (didn’t buy regular BCU). I love these cards - coming from baseball sapphire is what I wait for generally. Just such a narrow spectrum for value in football (QB’s for the most part).
