It would be right around 27% chance to pull a Zion if you are talking any card with Zion on it (non-auto, team trio, team quad, printing plate, etc. included) if all boxes have 9 cards and you assume only 1 Zion per box.

You didn't need a Zion to come out ahead in Immac, and you certainly don't need one for NT.

5 rpa + book theory in tact.

My 3X boxes came in.

Gonna hold these for a bit and see what happens. Will rip on Monday if they're not selling at $1,000+ per.

Agreed. Thats a pretty dam stacked box without zion. A lot of the rookies are seeing decent playing time from the looks of opening games this year as well.

Edwards immac are selling for 80 each and NAW at least 50...cam johnson 40....Ja 300. These being NT I'd expect a premium.

Zion is not life or death. All those smaller singles add up real quick.

I'm not sure i'd really agree with that. And if there is a Premium it will be negligible. Prices won't start as high as the Immaculate did - a lot of college inventory out there.

I would say that majority of us are not strung out which is why we choose to hold these. The ones that do are the ones who sold immaculate for $425 and kick to the balls.

The prices I quoted were current immac prices even after the multiple week price settling. I'm not expecting huge premiums, but I'm also not expecting NT to be the same price.

Point is, these are just as loaded if not moreso than Immac when you factor in more cards per box and the added booklet rpa.

I don't think there's anything to lose by holding a few more weeks. I expect boxes to fly off ebay once more breaks get posted. The format is just like Immac with at least one b
lottery pick rpa per box (rj, rui, ja, zion, hunter, reddish).

Theres no way that box is even close to $500 return.

Maybe. I'm not so sure though. The glut of inventory, the fact that now everyone is seeing who's actually playing this year and them being fugly is going to be a drag on prices.

Don't get me wrong. Still a nice break for those who like them and flipped boxes will pull a nice profit.

But we can't forget that FOTL Flawless Collegiate will go live in the next 10ish days or so.

I didn't say that.

Also, the deandre boxes were the worst ones in immac. Still didn't get completely hosed. Name me another Panini product where a 60-70% roi is worst case scenario.

You seemed pretty bearish on immac early on too, IIRC.

I'm not trying to convince anyone, but I'm fairly confident in the forecast. It's not going to break most of us either way.

Actually I take that back. The 2 Hunters should get close to 200. The triple patch at least another c-note (if it's low numbered), and pj washington (stuff currently on fire) another hundo.

That's about 400 off rip. Those other singles including the Clarke may just get there.

People are getting too caught up with big names. Majority of value comes in the other stuff.
