I love Sterling, but are we seriously using the same Corbin Carroll image as TC again? I feel like all of his cards this year have a total of like four images.

2 days until this releases and a few cards have popped up on eBay... still no checklist though *sigh*

checklist just came out: https://www.cardboardconnection.com/...baseball-cards

One of my favorite releases of the year but the presale prices seem a bit high.... is it just me? I can't seem to remember year to year.

scotchtape0 · 11-01-2023, 04:31 PM

auto checklist looks fantastic IMO

brothertona · 11-02-2023, 04:24 PM

Hit a Carroll to 10 and a Druw Jones auto to 100 from D&A, then watched them pull the double auto Orioles

$350 + tax for a box of this, wow

Yeah, no thanks. At these prices I'll go looking for some chrome Wemby/Thompson bro's cards- Panini Prism Draft choice in about an hour. I've just been absolutely roasted by Topps so far this year. Can't be any worse over at poop-nini it appears.

marterburn · 11-03-2023, 11:29 AM

Checklist looks fine but the rip looks rough per box.

3-4 #'d cards per box, 1-2 of which is an auto, and 3-4 base autos for that price. Yikes.

Those base-only packs feel so gross, for what $75 each?

Thought I'd pick up a couple for my son and I to open for Christmas, but Topps made it easy to skip that idea. $350 for this is laughable.

Who is buying this crap? Seriously. It’s a nice product but at $350 this becomes garbage.

Skipscards · 11-03-2023, 11:37 AM

Let’s see, $350 for a couple of Brock Burke or whatever autos and a Matt Olson auto #d to 50. Sure. Totally worth it.

theshowandme · 11-03-2023, 11:42 AM

Who in their right mind is walking into an LCS and handing over $350 + tax to open a personal box of this?

Good luck with that. I imagine the cost at the LCS is going to be north of $400.

anusinha · 11-03-2023, 11:46 AM

All you need to do in convince 30 fools to each pony up $15 for a random team and there you have it, easy product for a breaker to move.

If you want to bust yourself, youre better off buying 10 of the costco boxes or a dozen holiday megas.

true!

kyle1707 · 11-03-2023, 11:55 AM

350-400

Good luck not losing 250-300 per box

DarcyWinston · 11-03-2023, 11:55 AM

It also has poor resale value.

kyle1707 · 11-03-2023, 11:58 AM

It’s so telling where the “hobby” is with majority of these products

18 posts in a month for this product.

Literally 90 percent of this is heading to the casino

To give you an idea of the absurdity, there are 8 sales for 2022 Sterling that were greater than the price of this year’s case. Four of those were the same Elly card getting shilled.

anusinha · 11-03-2023, 12:43 PM

Im impressed that there are even 5 cards in the product that would sell for 4k

kordell1 · 11-03-2023, 12:44 PM

Don't worry guys. The, we "accidentally" printed 3 of each Superfractor buyback will make some of the cases worth it.

MattKC · 11-03-2023, 12:55 PM

Cases are gone....

Lol! Let everyone else have it, these prices are not sustainable when the singles market continues to collapse and total value extracted from any given box is < 40% of purchase price on average.

Now, if cards is turning into the new 'lottery' then it'll lose that game to actual lottery tickets since the payoff is so much better.

For those that bought boxes, excited to see what you pull.
