I'm sorry, who came up with not only the retail, but the sale price for 22 HHN? $500/case is already overpriced

I follow Topps X Once Upon A Time In Queens on their site almost daily- they were $59.95 a box through mid-summer before going to $64.95. They’ve been that price since mid-summer. They are listed in Wave 1 for that same price…

2021 HHN has turned out a decent rookie class after this year w/ Crochet, Chisholm, Kirk, Perdomo, Rooker and maybe a few other guys you could make a case for but 70 for a box is still laughable. This stuff wasn't good at 45 a box.

It's the oldest trick in the book. Raise the price, then slash it to the current price. Haha.

Wax is hot again, dont expect to see any real good deals. Retail junk as a doorbuster, unlicensed crap, and stuff from rookie years that no-one cares about. And yo gabba gabba blasters.

I believe they were $75 2 years ago and $100 last year. Wasn't expected that big of a jump. I'm pretty sure I have seen them much cheaper during the year.

I think this time of year, wives/girlfriends/parents, etc... are buying for the holidays and don't really look at the prices.


The people here on the other hand know blowout hasn't really put anything on sale.

I’m hoping this marks a return to the days where they list deals every couple minutes throughout the day on Black Friday instead of the waves they’ve been doing the last few years. That was always a good time.
