Well, why don't we take a look at sales - because numbers tend to tell the truth.

Look at Hidalgo autos. Her base auto in McDonald's (the refractor auto) is getting $50-55. Her base Bowman Chrome U Auto is getting $85-95, while the Refractor Auto /499 is getting $140-$150.

Look at Juju autos. Her base auto in McDonald's (the refractor auto) is getting around $160-170 via auction. Her base Bowman Chrome U Auto last sale at auction got $287. The McDonald's are pretty consistent around $160, while the Bowman Chrome U are $250-300.

So I would say the "not by much" is not accurate.

Thanks for the comparison!

Paper autos always do well with them being on card. Just tough to compare because I’m not sure on print run for those paper autos.

Using Hidalgo as an example, get paper auto is now getting $100 recently. So $15ish more than a chrome U base auto.

Yeah, I think I'll open this around $150/box. If it doesn't get to that, I'm fine passing.

I'd personally prefer that the Lebron autos not be in this, because they are going to increase the hype (and subsequently the demand and the price per box) and the odds of hitting one will be miniscule.

People can say what they want about Fanatics - they know how to play this stuff. Having the Lebron auto is catching the attention of way more people than this product normally would.

They time the release of the preview image perfectly too.

Yeah the Lebron auto isn't even needed. Having Flagg, Bailey, Harper, Strong, Blakes, Swords autos should keep the product demand there.

Agreed. I’ll only look for one player in this product anyway so buying singles is the way to go on my end. Just doesn’t make sense at 180 a box when I’d just buy 2 anyway.

Yes, well said. This is one of the few products that has been a good value product to open - adding Lebron just makes this more like other products where the hype drives up the price and it’s less of a value to open boxes.

Number 1 - not an awful checklist at all.

Number 2 - the checklist is pretty much determined by the rosters. So the only surprise should be the alumni guys.

Checklist isn’t a problem - in fact it’s quite strong.

Some of the vet autos/parallels could be big cards. Time will tell how often these pop up but any kind of Lebron or Durant auto will be a nuke.

On the mens college side you have the top 3 picks in next years draft with autos in here. Not sure what else you would ask for.

On the womens side Strong, Blakes, and Swords will sell very well out of the gate.

Yep, well said 711. The checklist is darn good, and has a huge chase with Flagg.

The alumni autos could be real nice.

I’m just glad that there are going to be a few girls I’m chasing and that’s it. I’ll be able to get em for cheap from the guys who break for the big names.

Full checklist here along with a soft cheer for there not being 50 parallels: https://www.beckett.com/news/2024-to...ketball-cards/

Right - we already knew the bulk of the checklist.

I'll probably wind up grabbing a box after release day.

Unfortunately, that probably means I'll be paying above $200/box.
