Are Absolute megas coming or did they drop when the screen changed to in-store pickup?

Obviously, I agree. The silver pulsar parallel looks really nice and I get EVERYBODY. The chance at the color-match Lamelo parallel is just the icing on the cake.

would you rather buy a lottery scratch off that costs $150 with a 99% chance of winning $125 and a 1% chance of winning $225 and that's the limit of what you can win or a $30 scratch off with a .01% chance of winning $1,500?

You answered your own question. Any time there is a chance, even a slim one, of pulling a $1K+ card out of a retail blaster that costs $20-$30, people are going to rip.

I'm on the fence, also. I do like the card stock they chose.

Ha, a great summation of the foolishness of the “ripping” aspect of the card market these days.
