It's a shame that it happened on a product like Ginter X because it's more of a collector's product than a flipper's product and now a lot of collectors are priced out.

Yep..I know it's not considered popular among the masses but I loved ripping this stuff each year since 2017. I like that it was super affordable and guaranteed a Ginter X SP'd auto..and the odds of pulling a red or silver mini were really good. I could rip..sell some of the cards to cover the cost of the rip and keep stuff like an Eloy Gold Auto to 5, Acuna Auto to 25..fun autos like Marc Summers etc..I fully expected a price hike...I kinda thought traditionally Ginter X was priced lower than Regular Ginter on Topps Website so I was thinking $125 possibly $150 (and even at $150 I'd probably not love it, but still get at least one box) but $175..I just couldn't do it.
