Decided to send to BGS on a 2 day order, should be graded by Wednesday next week. Hope it was the right call !

Bubbles, touts and pumpers, bots, grandmas getting their Megas janked, Gary V, Vegas Dave . . . what a time to be a collector.

The good news is that, in my opinion, the quality of the product on the court has never been better. Not sure you could pick two teams that wouldn't be a fun and compelling watch these days (maybe Hornets-Knicks?).

Silver Prizm sold for $825

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...m=184055236872

Several non numbered parallels on ebay for sub $400.

Just want to get the truth out there to everyone:-)

Anyone else concerned/surprised by the lack of #’d parallels being pulled from retail? The last couple years it was fairly easy to pull a bunch of /25 or /42...I’m not seeing any this year. If that’s the case the print runs will be astronomical.

This is a GREAT point.

Easy to just add more unnumbered colored parallels to retail and increase print runs tenfold. Panini can print alllllll the base they want.

Yup - this was all I needed to see - was already planning on sticking to other base for this year, this proves it. So there'll be what, 2-3k Zion PSA 10's? On the flipside, I wonder if that means older Prizm base [Giannis] will tick up once people realize it's much more limited than what they're doing now.

Do the retail products have odds listed? We can do the maths ...

Panini never lists odds

Thanks pejc300. Seems like ebay has been FLOODED w more people attempting to manipulate price than ever before. Make a fake sale of $1k when others are going for $500, then people start buying them up for $600... $700... $800 thinking theyre getting a deal.

They've always been 1-2 per blaster case. I was thinking odds were probably 1:15 blasters in previous years. I've spent thousands of dollars worth of retail the past two years and never had a bunch of any #'d parallel.

I’m not going to deny that the print runs are up, I’m sure they are. But were the green pulsars #’d to /25 that easy to pull last year? I know one YouTuber that opened two full cases of blaster of 18/19 Prizm and didn’t pull one green pulsar. Maybe that was just extremely unlucky.

[gowizards0]

What parallels are hobby only?

Last year the /42 and /25 were way more difficult to hit than the year before. I think about 4x harder if I remember correctly.

That seems ..... illegal.

[ThoseBackPages]

if you are a seller, worry about what people want, not print runs

if you are a collector, collect because you like the product

They used to. 15-16 Prizm had odds in every single SKU. Wonder what changed since?

Just kidding! Owner of two of BO's iconic phrases (in my opinion) is nothing to sneeze at

Yes, I would agree with green /25 being 2-3 per Blaster Case in my experience. Go look at all the box breaks - at least 200 blaster boxes have been recapped, I haven't seen one card to /25.
