When did Bob Ross become so wise about cards? I watch him every night on Pluto TV to relax and go to sleep.

At those prices, even jumbo will be a bust.

This is flagship....should be $60-80 per hobby box, maybe $100-120 for a jumbo box.

The basketball market has been oversaturated by Panini, so Topps is really going to have to do a top-notch job to be successful.....putting out the same over-priced, eternally-delayed, dreck that they've been doing in baseball isn't going to cut it.

The basketball card market is much more international, and collectors are much more discerning. And of course, the Trump tariffs aren't helping, since many shippers are no longer shipping small packages to the USA. And since a huge amount of basketball product has traditionally been opened in Asia, that's really going to negatively impact the sale of singles.

Value wise does anything Topps matter with exception to Sapphire and maybe some low numbered flagships parallels.

Purple sapphire Lebron is going to wild once that hits Goldin.

No cases? Guess they immediately sold out?

RainCityShecks · 10-03-2025, 11:01 AM

No case option? Wasn't gonna buy one anyway, just here to complain. Got 1 jumbo for the fun/getting destroyed.

Bosoxfan5990 · 10-03-2025, 11:02 AM

Just got a box of Jumbo.

Tonic3 · 10-03-2025, 11:02 AM

Max of 5

Blakeball cards · 10-03-2025, 11:02 AM

Low limits, honestly makes sense with demand but annoying. Jump in now, will not be cheaper anywhere else.

jduds · 10-03-2025, 11:02 AM

That was way smoother than expected. Two Jumbos secured in a minute. Well done Topps.

RainCityShecks · 10-03-2025, 11:02 AM

I'll be back when the chrome version of this drops.

Gone immediately

Chris P · 10-03-2025, 11:03 AM

Got 5 jumbos. First hobby boxes ive bought since 2019

ledgewerx · 10-03-2025, 11:03 AM

Both Hobby and Jumbo cases are already sold out.

STLtoMN · 10-03-2025, 11:04 AM

jumbo cases are an absolute mess....

dayrider1973 · 10-03-2025, 11:04 AM

There is a spot to click on cases on the top right; got 2 hobby boxes and 1 jumbo easily actually.

Maz914 · 10-03-2025, 11:04 AM

Grabbed 3 jumbos

vollybal · 10-03-2025, 11:05 AM

pretty smooth to be honest...grabbed 3 hobbys...worth a shot.

The Accountant · 10-03-2025, 11:06 AM

cases almost impossible but secured hobby and jumbo singles

njsportscardguy · 10-03-2025, 11:06 AM

Jumbos S/O in less than 1 minute makes my spending choice, easy!

No money for CRAPTASTICS, from me! Easy, Peasy.

Mattsurewood · 10-03-2025, 11:06 AM

Snagged 3 jumbo and 4 hobby, figured mix it up a bit--should be fun

TraderJake · 10-03-2025, 11:07 AM

got one jumbo. I got scared when I started moving the quantity around and it started to grey out on me, lol.
