Side note, every single hobby box on auction has been won and paid for by the same bidder.

Would be funny if it were Gary V (and even funnier if he's sitting on a stash of boxes).

I actually won the EQL yesterday for 2 boxes of the Veefriends sticker collection with the Steph Curry autos that happened yesterday. Interested to see how popular these are?

They don't like change, they don't like new things, they think everything is wrong because it doesn't fit into what has always been. I've been here longer than almost anyone, I know what the board is and who is here. Don't believe me? Find some "new and hip" discords or facebook groups and compare the topics and people posting. You think the Vee cult doesn't exist because they aren't posting here? Tom Brady doesn't post here either, but it doesn't mean he isn't actively participating in the hobby. Things are so much bigger and wider than what blowout posters with blinders on like to accept. And once more, as I feel like it needs to repeated, I think this product is ridiculous and shouldn't have demand. But my opinion doesn't change the facts. And neither does a yard full of "true collectors" out on the lawn shaking their fists at the clouds as they roll past.

This is the most accurate statement of the year. I'd say 90% of the hobby has no interest in message boards - its tiktok, instagram and whatever other social media of the moment is making the rounds. So many hot takes on this board that may have been true 15 years ago that no longer apply to the card industry.

That was my first thought as well, or atleast someone connected to him.

"Card Twitter" is unfortunately a term I hear a lot and wish it wasn't a thing. I don't have a Twitter or X or whatever it is now so if some big story in the card world happens I normally have to wait for a random FB group to talk about it or wait for it to show up on reddit.

I don't think "Card Twitter" is any better or worse then "Card Facebook" or "Card Reddit" tbh.

EQL

So I guess they will have 10-20 boxes available for EQL. save the rest for VIP breakers/direct at 5 times mark ups like Marvel Chrome Hobby
A seller on bay supposedly already got box ready to ship....Real or not who knows

I thought the NFT holders received most of the boxes. They’ve started receiving their boxes, singles have been popping up.

Well….I didn’t win. I had to try. D&A are literally currently buying these for $5K so that would’ve been a quick, huge profit.
