I think Chronicles is finally started to dry up! Listings are down, and prices are rising up from the lows a couple weeks ago.

Used to be able to find value packs for $12 and hangers under $30 easy but most on ebay packs are $15+ and hangers are in the $35-$40 range now.

Hallelujah !!!

Funny first time i got the chronicles notification. And I get a donruss football notification practically everyday and it seems damn near impossible to buy some.

[Cpdjoe77]

Got bored and cracked a mega. Other notable hits were a teal coby essentials and teal luminance Anthony Davis and lebron

Picked up a bronze Nunn Phoenix and RJ HH.

Sekou color collection is growing.

[Cpdjoe77]

Opened 1 more. You think it’s worth trying to replace these from panini? The Zion is super clean minus a sub surface spot in the top left. Such a bummer

Get them replaced for what exactly?

Anyway, on topic, I managed to pick up two Mega Boxes tonight for 100 each, which I was very happy with.

Hopefully prices will go up enough I’ll still make some money. Gotta pay for my case of 2020 Olympic cards somehow!

You will make your money back if you just have patience. These boxes are stacked, even if it is mostly paper.

Zion
Ja
Herro
RJ Barrett
Nunn
White

In a few years these will likely be twice what you paid, don't get put off by the current prices, people with moms credit card are dumping all their stuff in panic.

Agreed very easy to make money back, especially if you paid retail. If any one of those rookies play well, you will make your money back. If two or more, which is very likely with this stacked class, will make profit.

Opened up a blaster last night during the Lakers/Nuggets game...the box was mainly paper cards and the pink parallels aren't worth mentioning.

Last pack saved the day though - I hit this LBJ Crusade silver! Wish I could score some fat packs at retail to try for the bronze chrome cards but I think I'm done opening and will stash away the couple boxes I got left.

Picked up a bronze Flux Ja Morant on ebay yesterday. Looked like it was the only active listing. Buy it now...ask questions later.

There sure doesn't seem to be a lot of them.

Just got this.

Just an FYI,

The guy that just discounted the Zion bronze flux if you were watching from 500 to 300 be careful, I asked him about the back bottom right corner saying it looked like it was an issue he claims it’s mint, showed him the pic in question then he claims it’s still mint and tells me not to buy the card. I’m not regardless but do you guys think this is mint?

Wow. Now that I look at the original back image the bottom corner still looks pretty soft. I was so close to buying when I got the discount offer, but luckily asked for some pictures of the card out of the case but he never responded. It's sold now.

Yea thats mint freshly dropped on the back right corner. Dumb if you ask me. Whoever buys it will just return it so might as well be honest.

That’s a shame. I remember reaching out to the guy shortly after I pulled mine as it was the only other one I could find to see if he had any decent offers and he was planning to take it in to BGS. Presumably didn’t know about the damage at that point or has unfortunately happened since.

I see Walmart is back to helping out their good friends, the bots, yet again. Restock of Chronicles Basketball Value Boxes few minutes ago. Page won't even work. Sure they were all gone under 10 seconds.

I got that notice as well and went to it and the picture was of a Bowman BB blaster box but description was right. I actually got 10 added to my cart but OOS at checkout.

Did yours sell? If not, any bites?

I think it's too early to sell the bronze (or any color) phoenix, flux, crusade, HH cards yet.

LOL I'm pretty sure I was still miles away from a true checkout. And this was the first Wally notice I've received in many months of any kind. Kind of gave up on their site.
