These are the odds that are on the side of a blaster box. Does this mean that it's possible to pull a throwback uniform from a blaster? 1:6,581. I thought these were hobby exclusive..

I think these magenta backs are going for dirt cheap. They are /10 from my understanding...

They are limited, but these never seem to have a big following except for those building "rainbows"

Last year's yellow and grey backs never really caught on big and red backs in 2016 and blue backs in 2015 were the same.

To excite you more, I pulled a Mookie throwback in 2016, in my first target blaster of the season.......then I pulled garbage the next 3 months!

The red backs in 2016 had a small bump in price across the board because at least 1 person was attempting to build the set

I can't even imagine how much that would have cost.

That damn Stephen Vogt base card. I thought I had pulled a Throwback. Surely I can't be the only one.

I pulled a Andujar/Frazier black border yesterday, and thought others who have pulled the same card would be asking for $100+ on eBay.
Then see one sold for $20...

I know it is not as popular as the Black Chrome, but they are still limited to 50 copies.
I hope this is just part of the initial dumping that some people do and hope the market picks up on these as well.

Just an FYI — If you set up an account on MyUps, you can digitally authorize release of a package requiring signature. If, of course, you’re comfortable designating a place near your doorstep secure enough for them to leave it. My UPS drivers essentially hide my cases for me if I’m not there.

Fantastic. I was wondering about that

Can't wait for prices to crash even lower in the coming days as the supply flood hits eBay.

Ohtani Actions have already dropped from $275-$300 to $170-$200 overnight.

If ordering from BO you will have to call them to make changes. They do not allow changes or re-direction, unless you put instructions in the comment section during the order process.

Okay, we're in day 2 (or 3.) Talk to me about your opinions on the price of Hobby Cases. BO is still at $1399 and ebay is not far off. Do you see it going up, down, remaining the same for the foreseeable future, and why?

Short term should go up some due to super high current demand. Then it will drop back down longer term.

If you live in the northern Delaware area, don't bother checking your targets or Walmarts today. I'll save you the time. This is my second "truck load" in 2 days. Also, you get a free series 1 pack with each blaster box, but target can only take four (4) of the coupons per transaction. Make sure you do separate transactions if buying more than 4 blasters at once. Hopefully this saves you time

With the increase in production, the over hype of ohtani, and the way Topps Series One has gone (yes it is different but I think we can learn from it) I don’t see this going anywhere but down. People ripping at that price will get destroyed.

I think the ohtani action drops considerably along with the autos over the first few weeks. If he get hurt, bubble explodes.

Just my opinion though.

I see it staying the same for a couple weeks. Hype is still pretty high Ohtani’s future basically being a big driving force of the product. However with more hits showing up and in my opinion fewer star autos (saving for HN) price will settle in around 1,200 DLVD.

Are these pictures being taken in the Target parking lot? You must get some funny looks...

Ripped 6 blasters and a hobby box. Here's the hits. McCutchen was in the hobby, while Mr. Trout was in a blaster!
