I loved opening Elite this year. I too wish it caught on more. I bought a case at about $400/box and have no willpower to keep cards sealed. I busted the case with my son and did pretty well. We hit (2) gold Spellbound Luka's #/10, (2) Blue Zion's #/99, (1) Blue Ja #/99, Zion Pen Pals Auto #/49, one Base Ja, one Base Zion and several mid-tier autos that sold well and an Auto Redemption Tyler Herro which I'm sure will be here sometime within the next 3-5 years.
The cards are definitely condition sensitive. We sent the Zion Auto in Express to PSA and it came back a "9" with a "10" for the auto. It's what I expected with one small corner issue. The two blue Zion's #/99 I still have and did not send in for grading because they will be either 8's or, at best, 9s with slight corner issues.
With what I sold out of the case I probably got close to $3-3.5K back and I still have all the Ja's, Zion's and Herro redemption auto (hopefully someday).
