So I go to change the delivery address, and because it requires an adult signature they won't allow me to change the delivery address.

Does anyone know of a way around this so that I can get this rerouted to where I'm staying?

I was hoping to have my neighbor get the package, and then ship it out to me - but that isn't possible without me being there to sign for it.

Will they allow "Hold For Pickup"? Back in the day I had a few packages sent to Walgreens for me since they are able to sign for it (this was FedEx). Now I have a UPS store box so UPS signs for all my packages. It won't get re-routed but at least Walgreens can keep it safe for you until you get back home. (*Not necessarily Walgreens per se, but whatever stores near you are available. There are usually locations that do this). Sign into Fedex delivery manager and there should be options.

If it's UPS, you can use MyChoice in similar fashion.

P.S. You weren't lying about the autograph checklist. That's a really nice checklist considering 4 autos per box. Not a lot of filler.

Anybody have a good link for the checklist?

So I tried to use the "change my delivery" option, to have them hold it at my local UPS store location. I know someone there who said he would help me out and send the cases next day air if I do that.

I went to take care of this, and it's not allowing me to do so. I'm a My Choice member, but it won't let me change the delivery address.

Yep - looks to be much, much better than last year. Man was the auto checklist brutal in last years product.

They must have changed their policies. The only reason I ever used MyChoice in the past was to get the adult signature while I was work. One time I even forgot and was still able to change the delivery the morning of because the truck hadn't left yet.

That’s a nice break. I’ve only seen 1 and 2 box breaks on YouTube and half or more have had a color blast. This stuff seems relatively loaded.

One hobby case. No FOTL for me.

It did have one color blast.

48 of 64 autos were #'d.

Barry Sanders and Michael Penix (x2) were my best autos.

Every pack is a color fest. All depends who you hit. I hit my fair share of good non-auto. Im sure FOTL is going to be very good to anyone who opens just based on the exclusives.

I ripped a full regular (not FOTL) hobby case. I will say either my case was absolutely loaded or Panini greatly improved this product from prior years.

In my case, I hit the following key color: Snakeskin Drake Maye, Black/Gold #/5 Drew Brees (insane color match with Purdue uni), Gold Rome Odunze #/10, and case hit JJ McCarthy black color wheel which looks sweet.

The autos were even BETTER: TWO DJ Lagway (including an unreal Gold Vinyl 1/1!!!), a Dillon Gabriel Tie-Dye patch auto #/25 with a crazy Oregon patch, 2 Odunze (one was a purple cracked ice!), 2 blue cracked ice Jonathan Brooks, and a JJ McCarthy prizm. Again all of these were autos!

I was able to buy at $200 per box. Depending on how much the Gold Vinyl Lagway 1/1 would fetch I may have made my money back on the case in full based on just the cards I listed in this post
