First Buzz: 2025-26 Topps NBA basketball cards - Page 22

Chrome's the Prizm hobby hallmark. And we all know Prizm's been printed to the high heavens and back this past half decade.

The golds/oranges/reds/supers will always command top dollar.

It'll be fine holdover until Saph releases a few months afterwards.

He was not happy about that Davion Mitchell redemption card -- slow-rolled it as well, haha.

Still no tracking for me. I wonder if it's because I live too close to warehouse (Texas)

I believe they are trying to get most of it to arrive the same day.

Obviously that didn’t work all too well.

Don't know why he didn't include Fanatics Exclusives on his spreadsheet but those are by far the best bang for buck in terms of odds.

I'm ok with a couple people getting their boxes sooner. You can't completely control that. This is better than if all the boxes were being shipped from Florida on the same day and I'm one of the last to receive the item. As much as I've been disappointed by Topps, they're trying to do something good here I think. Just my opinion.

My problem with his videos like this is he uses dave and adams / steel city pricing, even for retail product that will be available at MSRP. It distorts the numbers in his spreadsheet significantly, and he left off hangers / fanatics boxes because he "didn't have pricing" even though it's known at this point.

He doesn't let you download the spreadsheet so that you can adjust those numbers?

eastbayak · 10-21-2025, 10:52 AM

Picked up 4 hobby boxes this AM.

unreal13 · 10-21-2025, 11:28 AM

What do people think these are?

I hope no one is dumb/misinformed enough to pay more than a few $ for these.

Can’t take a loss on the box break, bro.

Really solid job by the seller for not having "2025" anywhere in the listing and just "25". Really makes their cards super easy to find.

Great work seller!

Not that I'm aware of. Maybe if you pay him money and join his patreon, but it's not publicly available.

kyle1707 · 10-21-2025, 12:09 PM

Well he only over paid by 10x

But this as you know is very common

Agreed. Value boxes, Mega Boxes and Hangers are all currently available at Dick's for $25, $50 and $13. This will change the odds on his sheet. As someone else stated, looks like the Fanatics boxes will be the best bang for the buck.

What’s a chrome preview? Can they at least name them correctly?

This seller is clearly a no talent a$$ clown.

MavsRChamps · 10-21-2025, 12:33 PM

I watched the 1 break, I'll say this:

Negative: Scarcity is as expected not there. 1 #ed card (/99) in the entire Hobby box.
Positive: I was pleasantly surprised by the design. The photos pop much more than Panini Hoops or their basic offerings. The insert designs are better than expected for basic topps, esp the foil versions.

Same here...I better have over night service if this is the case as what the heck is the point of pre-order if you cannot get it before or on release day other than price.
