I think this comment flew under the radar a bit, but assuming there were 8,000 sets produced (not sure if this can be verified) and each set includes one of each color prizm parallel...

8,000 sets / 300 base cards = 26.666 of each color prizm parallel produced

If these numbers wind up to be true, that's HUGE value on top of what everyone has already stated. People pay ~$350 for 19/20 Optic White Sparkle 4 card packs where the print run is probably ~15 copies.

$250/set is looking like a steal right now.

Starting to creep up in price on Feebay. The hype seems to be taking off in no small part by how beautiful these are

And they just look down right amazing. May be premature, but I think the pulsar finish will trump any other parallel from these premium Hoops releases. Super poppage.
My body is ready to float down the sea of Oliver Miller pulsar slabs.

I would be surprised if it does not restock at least once. Target rarely releases all of a product's stock at once. And being an Online Exclusive, it would make sense for Target to release batches weekly to keep buyers coming back to the site. I would bet that more are stocked when the other retail formats are initially stocked.

It is a great looking product, and even if they produced 20,000 Exclusive sets, it is well worth the $150 price.

$250 on eBay is looking like a steal on eBay if those singles auctions hold true.

I’d get one off eBay but I’m not dealing with people who have minimal feedback.

In the first auctions on ebay, the 2 Ja Morants are almost at the cost of the entire retail price with 8 hours to go!

This set looks GREAT. I’m so glad I went back and placed the 2nd order of 3 sets to get 6 total. I learned from the Optic Fanatics release when I only bought 2 and instantly regretted it when they sold out. Mine should all be here Dec 3 and I will definitely open 1 of them on the first day.

Theyve been available multiple times since it first stocked. Maybe a few at a time. Perhaps the cancelled orders.

When was the last time you saw them available, I haven’t seen it other than Wednesday when they first came out?

I'm here in San Jose and I'll feel at ease once I get a tracking #! Haha.

It's ironic, how orders from actual humans are getting cancelled yet bots can buy up entire restocks (ie - NFL Mosaic) in a split second yet those orders have no issues being confirmed and shipped out.

I think so too! These will go up even more once people have product in hand and others can see what the cards look like.

Grabbed one for under $250. Hopefully it pans out.

If I didn’t have any incoming, I’d be loading up at $250.

This is a complete set with 2 Zion, 2 Ja, plus another 5 card pack like the Optic set. Don’t get scared off like everyone did during the Optic Fanatics set release and start cancelling orders.
Thats because they all got opened early.
If Hoops came out now it wouldn't even sell for $50 a blaster.

Just like Illusions/Chronicles sells for crap.

You’re missing the point of regular NBA Hoops... it has value because it is the first NBA uniform product released and has been around for a long time. Illusions and Chronicles are an attempt to produce more random things towards the end of the season.

No.
Explain Contenders blasters...
They are beyond garbage with no following in basketball.

Once people learned the wax game. That's it.
Everyone flipping/hoarding.

Luka chronicles sells for 2x Luka Hoops..

Contenders blasters have minimal to no chance at an actually rookie auto, which is the chase in that specific product. No such thing as a base rookie card.

Luka chronicles are not all 2x Luka hoops. Only a few of the chrome chronicles are worth more than hoops and not by much.
