Great point. I guess it depends on the $$ of the /2 insert.

I have time to get in hand to decide....

Immac was easy. Bought 3, sold 2, 1 is free! I just got home from vacation and have not touched them. Going to mail out the 2 I sold later.

Honestly would love to sell my confirmed box to BO without eBay but other breakers are much more aggressive in buying and will pay pre arrival.

Who are these “other breakers” everyone keeps talking about?

I’ve never seen the higher end FOTL boxes being ripped in breaks.

Yup I was in the same boat as you on Immaculate. Got 4. Sold 3. Busted 1. And made $$.

It also depends if the normal boxes go up in price as well.

You can't go wrong with whatever you end up choosing.

Got one...pumped! Now trying to decide...selling to BO at 2k is tempting.

I'm on the fence.

Bucket list is to open a box (case) of flawless, and this seems about as good of an opportunity as any. But....there is $$ to be made too, even to Blowout who I assume is going to be less risky than ebay.
I will be holding until next year at least.

For those of you still "on the fence" about what to do, here is my suggestion:

Liquidate all the players that are selling well now, Mahomes, Tatum, Soto, Acuna, etc. Sell them all now. Every player that is hot now, sell, sell. Take the profits and use it to make sure you keep this product with no debt.

There are only 200 boxes of this, not thousands and thousands of boxes. BK is huge around the world and there are people with deep pockets ready to take a gamble (remember, China invented gambling!).

Keep this product, and wait till the market dries up, you will reap the rewards. Don't be like those selling on ebay now because they bought this using money they don't have. Be the one that sells for $$$$ when there are very few left (sealed).

I definitely think that is the high risk/high reward play. With only 200 of these made, the longer you hold the more scarce they get (obviously), but then you are banking on Flawless to hold insane value

I concur. The high end BK market Worldwide is the best.

BO doesn't want you to use their platform to privately purchase products the company sells.
