Fanatics reps sold chrome football for 199.99 and then a few days later called back and said oops the price was supposed to be 319.99.

I felt like Tony Soprano was shaking me down with that phone call.

Holy #@#@#@#@ that's the most cringey thing I've ever heard of from a multi-billion dollar corporation.

That's like something a 12 year old kid at his first garage sale would do.

Not good business at all. Now the difference they did apply to a gift card for future use. I'm angrier about the fact they haven't even shipped any Series 1 skus they sold yet.

The print runs on this must be massive I went through 18 blaster boxes and 6 hangers and 6 fat packs and only got 2 numbered parallel cards. One /2025 gold and one to /5 that is crazy low for the amount of packs I went through, no autos and I relic. No real hits other than the /5. I know it was retail but dang the lack of anything numbered tells me this stuff is still being printed like crazy. 1989 all over again

Thats a lot of money to spend on retail. Why didn't you just buy some hobby or jumbo if you were spending that much?

Eh, let people spend how they want. It's not like hobby or jumbo isn't an absolute waste of money either.

Got a JRam on card auto and wood relics from Trout and Seiya Suzuki in my Jumbo. I'll take it!
