That’s odd, someone paid $75 for a Johnson.

I ordered 10 boxes and mine just arrived in a sealed (albeit beat up) case similar to the case of Sapphire update.

has markings on the outside that says 10/8 count.

So individual boxes were not bubble wrapped with care? Maybe one of the line workers figured out it was easier and quicker to just keep the boxes in the case if people ordered 10. Probably took a few hundred orders before they realized that.

According to 130point, the Holliday was an accepted offer? Someone really needed the skrilla…

Elijah Green #'d to 20 listed for $499 for almost an entire day seems like a red flag and makes me seriously consider making this the first sapphire product I just flip sealed. It's either that or rip and hold for a bit.

People will tell you to rip, but this stuff is either rip and grind (It's a lot of work), flip (easiest and quick profit), or hold if you like the class

Also, that probably won't last long.

Screw it, I snagged it. I'll probably just sell 2 boxes to recoup the cost.

Sold my Yellow Sapphire Tork PSA 9 last week. Painful sale - $500 card when I pulled it. Paid $150 to grade during the peak and sold for net like $130. PAINNNN

Good buy. I would have grabbed it at that price too.

I wonder if this is selling better than TCUS because it’s a deeper checklists with all the first whereas TCUS it’s boom or bust on almost every rip. Seems like for the box cost the singles in Draft should be selling better.

That does hurt but it’s probably because the 2020 class (I assume you are talking about the Tork 1st Sapphire) hasn’t panned out yet.

Free shipping arrived today. 3 days works for me!

Sorry to hear but at least they shipped quick. I like that they shipped fast and were packed so well with each box inside bubble wrap. Arrived in perfect condition even with a good ding on the outside of the shipping box. I like this new process under Fanatics. So far, so good.

It seems I got burned paying the extra for two day shipping. Mine didn't ship out until Thursday morning and since it's the weekend, UPS won't deliver until Monday even though it's at my local facility today.

My group I break for had a very fun 4 box rip of BC sapphire. Including a 1st Bowman red to /5! I think these prices for sealed boxes will keep heading north! Undeniably fun rookie class.

Default 2022 Bowman Chrome Draft-Sapphire Edition Checklist

Here were the results from my 5 boxes- guess I’ll stash these away and hope that Chase DeLauter is a big name in 2-3 years…

Not having to wait is definitely a huge plus.

I had listed my five boxes up for sale and if anyone hit them, I would just sell them. If not, I was going to bust them. They arrived today and they hadn’t sold so I busted them. I think it worked out well.
