People finally getting disgusted with paying 4x what boxes should be going for?

Exactly

The ultra modern singles market is in the tank

How in the world prizm football for example is 1500 a box is insane

Top 5 Rc qb base cards are what 10-20 bucks

Only thing keeping box prices up is gamblers

Yeah that’s crazy. I pulled a Ja’marr chase silver and a Zach Wilson base from a blaster and felt like a winner. But they’re only worth $50 probably combined.

Word. Picked up a Fields for $11 shipped. Funny to think that Mosaic may have been printed less than Prizm.

I'm raking in Kyle Trask silvers and orange/red parallels for pennies.

Maybe a summer lull? People actually going on vacations?
For the first time in over a decade, people are really feeling a pinch in their wallets. Summer time doesn’t help either. Lot of vacations from pent-up demand the last two years. Services trump goods right now. It’s hard to see how the market for four figure mid-range and five figure high-end boxes continues.

Makes sense since this year's Prizm with the centering and surface issues should go for pennies.

Most every Trask Prizm I have seen looks incredibly off-center and scratched

Agree, but I'm still waiting for box prices to come down. They have maybe a little, but damn, they are still ridiculously priced out of proportion to what's potentially inside.

12:25 mark... He sliced the outer wrappers together, but didn't notice the large box tape was already sliced then takes a minute to figure out the small box was already sliced

His reaction was funny. Legend of the five rings? What the eff? No shadiness this time. Just got got buying on the 2nd market. Someone hopping someone sits on it for a long time I guess.

With boxes selling for up to thousands of dollars you are going to have scammers finding ways to make boxes look factory sealed. In National thread there is post about a Breaker who at National opened up a box to do a live break of 2012 NBA Prizm and said he had shown to other dealers who offered to buy it and when it was opened it was filled with Austin Powers packs.

Only way to trust getting a real box anymore is to get direct from the factory now or a licensed dealer of there's.

He makes an appearance in this video when they find out they bought an opened product. So he's still there, but I'm guessing he'll never break again because of the optics.

Maybe I missed something because I didn't watch the entire video but when he grabbed the box to take the outside wrap off you can tell it was already cut because he stuck his hand in it and just pulled it off the box.

On another note, how many f-in times can he say Bro in a 30 second span??? Listening to breakers is like listening to fingernails on a chalkboard for me. Not sure how anyone can stomach this stuff.

Absolutely nothing worse than watching break videos. Close second for me are bad painter videos, but not even close to break videos.

Yeah, you missed where he sliced open both outside wraps at the same time.

Forget bids. Forget even watchers. I have 20 listings right now. Only TWO of the listings have views. Views

Its a joke right now.

If I'm going to watch a break video, no matter who it is, I generally watch it on mute.

I would not be surprised if they rigged that break in hopes of gaining sympathy.
