In fairness, was just responding to him calling me out. Was honestly trying to keep it on topic by avoiding going into it, but I do this financial stuff for a living and am genuinely interested in it (part of the reason I like cards too!), so was tough to resist. Realize no ones interested in a pissing content though, I’m done talking about it..

Why's that? Is there a better price active rn? Or are you talking about the people who tried to order more than 5?

I got my tracking info today, so looks like it's all good on my end so far...

Unsure if you’re trying to be snarky or not. If so, please up it a few degrees. Thanks

What was MSRP on them?

That’s what needs to happen for the bots to stop. 45K CC debt he can’t get rid of

Think you also have to include all the shipping he has to pay for, looking at his Twitter account it looks like he resides in the lower 48 so I imagine shipping isn't cheap

Big oof

If you want to bust packs and build sets, it’s not a bad deal.

I've never found anything at any Walgreens around me. The quantity of cards they have shelf space for seems so minimal even if you actually find something in stock. I don't even bother checking anymore. Much better luck for me at WallyWorld.

I've never looked there either. Randomly ran across a couple of hangers while picking up a prescription for my wife. Pulled this so I was pretty pumped.

Early this year my local stores pulled the baseball cards behind the register, but left the repacks, football and Magic/YuGiOh sitting out. If you browsed the aisle, but didn’t ask, you wouldn’t know they had stock.

Thanks for the tip. I will stop in and at least ask some time. I have a ton of Walgreens in reasonable driving distance of me so if any do actually have some reasonable stock behind the counter, would definitely be worth checking out moving forward.

From the Germany site they were about $285/box shipped.

I should add, depending on the conversion rate your banked used. I bought two boxes for €480 euro shipped.

Opened all 30 of the select packs from Tuesday mornings restock, best card was Hurts field level silver. Packs looked beat up while also rubber banded, mainly the cards on the back and front where the rubber bands were hugging the packs have edge problems.

Opened a blaster and mega of chronicles and decided to just return the rest of my haul to Target. Cheaply cards with little value. Funny when I did because someone else must have just done the same lol

I'm going to return some Prizm Draft Hangers, Select Baseball and Topps Series 2 Hangers. Not trying to set $250 on fire, I spent enough money ripping what I had.

I'm kind of tempted to rip the Draft hangers but the first 6 I ripped were so bad I think I'm probably done with them. The collation was absolutely terrible, one of the hangers literally repeated every single base card.

Possibly stupid question but does target put the all of this returned sports card product back on the shelves for sale or do they have to return them to the warehouse from whence they came?
