I ordered like a million 2020 S1 blasters for like $14 through fanatics Costco gift card thing. Or maybe it was like $12. I can’t remember, but I know for sure I’ll be able to do it again for 2021 S1 since I did it last year!!

The only way to fix the flippers is for people to stop paying the markups for the wax. I have no problem with someone clearing things out its there right, the thing that i get a kick out of is people complain they cannot find product at msrp but then they are going and paying the crazy after market prices. News flash this is only gonna make things worse you shouldn't complain and than support the flippers because then in reality you're the problem not the flippers. Until consumers understand they are the problem things aren't gonna change.

Which is why I don’t purchase above MSRP

Having a Mookie Betts rookie card in this will really help the resale value.

Hmmm I'll have to look into this for next year. Presumably have to be a Costco member to get that?

Yeah, but I bought it online. You buy a fanatics gift card for a discount. Can’t remember how much % off it was!

I'm worried about the performance of a highly touted prospect, yes. I've watched almost every game he's played and I'm not feeling it.

Players younger than him have been called up and did well, and the pandemic has nothing to do with anything.

Looks like Gore and Kelenic could be the last two prizes of this.

The last two LCS I went to both bragged about people buying all the retail and seeling it to them. So lame.

This has become a breakers product. No longer for the casual collector or hobbyist to break for fun.

Breakers aren't breaking Flagship, you'll see a few cases early but Flagship is a nightmare for breakers. It's all base.
