I feel like the $100 is a big/taunting/laughing middle finger to everyone that bought the FOTL boxes. I'm shocked they're going to sell them for $100 but nothing Panini does anymore surprises me.

$100 was SRP the whole time. They will release 100 or so on the website and it will sell out in seconds.

I see nothing wrong with it. They are showing up its $100 for hobby. They started a dutch auction and the buyers set the price by paying $350 as the floor, not Panini. You guys all set that price and told the market what you were willing to pay.

Also, not to mention, they are two completely different products.

Oh, I know there’s nothing wrong with it. I guess it’s just frustrating to me when the only avenues we as collectors have for “hobby” boxes is either pre-order for $450 or buy their FOTL dutch auction boxes at $350-400 (I know the two boxes are different but you get my point). Then they sell boxes at $100 just to remind all of us how much we’re overpaying this year. It’s just me whining and wishing there was a better way. Unfortunately we’re all at the whim of distributors or Panini. Pick our poison I suppose

Well, next season it should be reasonable prices considering the draft class for next season isn't great so far. But, never know - they could be charging the same prices as this season. If so, definitely not buying lol

The hobby are not FOTL. They are not worth as much being 2nd 3rd or 4th off the line so they have to put more of them in a box and sell cheap.

Nope, not joking. I knew Texas got winter weather this week. Just wasn't sure how bad it was.

We have about 8in of new snow here in Colorado to make matters worse for the poor FexEx driver.

Delayed for me.

That’s cause it’s a pack of cards, not a box.

Hey I'm sure plenty of us have turned $400 into $0 at some point so fifty bucks isn't so bad! You could turn those cards into a trip to Olive Garden or something!
