The answer is always “Rip it”.

Boredom? Not quite sure, they’ve been sitting there for months. I know at some point I’m going to rip a couple of boxes, so whether it’s today or in December won’t really make a difference i suppose

Why are you deciding to bust now?? Are you busting to flip?? The answer for wax is always hold, but I say go ahead and bust!! The less boxes out there the more mine are worth.

How many boxes do you have?

I wish there was a way to know how much unopened is still out there.

I think a poll of members here alone would be a staggering amount. There was a thread somewhere not long ago where people posted their stashes.

Many have moved on and sold product especially when getting 5 to 10 times investment return on product.

VandyCards · 10-15-2020, 07:08 PM

So this was unexpected.

I went to a Walmart that has been picked over for months, and not even any new product. Just empty displays of Bowman and Series 1, 2019 football and all.

In there to get penny sleeves.

I see a clearance value pack of 2019 Donruss in a mixed up box of some kiddie stuff and like those random toy things. Behind it is another one.

And two clearance packs of 2018 Update.

I must’ve been to this Walmart 10 times in the past year. Must’ve missed these.

I know the update is a good find, but is the Donruss anything special?

Great score on the Update packs!! Donruss is unlicensed so not likely worth much, but fun to rip open

Respectfully disagree, unless you know this from members directly. The mass public opinion here was that it was a longtime hold, with garages and back rooms full of product.

This pull reminded me of finding 4-2018 update fat packs, 1 2018 topps chrome blaster and 5 2017 topps series 1 at Wal-Mart in June. You really never know and have to just search around.

Given what he (Hunter) seems to smoke frequently, I bet he could buy a lot of cards with his savings if he quit

Around April, I was holding onto 6 hanger boxes, but got so bored at home that I ended up opening them. For my surprise, I got this, which I graded recently. I have no will to hold unopened boxes, so I'm all for rolling the dice.

VandyCards · 10-16-2020, 05:04 PM

I opened my two fat packs. No Soto or Acuna. Best two cards were a Father's Day /50 of Walker Lockett/Jose Castillo and a Ohtani Foil RD.

Oh well, still fun to flip through

lauriontj · 10-16-2020, 05:29 PM

Hit up Walmart tonight. They had a lot to offer including 3 2018 Fat packs!

This fella seems to be confused. He’s showing a retail pack but calling it a hobby box. Retail boxes have 24 packs, hobby have 36. Not sure what this listing is, but it doesn’t really matter.

What’s everyone’s current update update?
Still buying online at a good price?
Searching retail outlets?
Selling?
Ripping?

I found a sealed hanger case at a decent price, and ripped a few that i already had. Otherwise I’m standing pat for the moment.
