[Bob Ross]

Does anyone think my health insurance will ok me for an injury CT Scan but when I get there the hospital will do the box instead?

Thanks again

Or bring the box with you (say you take it to all your appointments and it's a good luck charm lol)

Still less time than it's taken them to ship my eTopps cards that were printed two decades ago.

This was just the presale, you can get it on the real release date for $2250

Didn't Michael Scott do this when Dwight got a concussion?

With only 5 cards per box, could be a lot of this made. And being this isn't a one time release with this having a pre-order then main release, there might be a decent amount of these boxes made.

Here are my prediction results:

Prediction: 100 base cards
Reality: 50
Grade: B-

Parallel prediction: 8
Reality: 9
Grade: A

Super cool that the "hit" may simply be a /75 of a base card.

Really fun stuff.

/75 Purple Foil
/50 Gold Foil

GAME,...OVER!!

Fanatics taking over licenses was good they said. Now they're just upping prices on licenses they already had. Good times!

Why are you guys upset about not being able to get this? I feel anyone upset about not being able to get this was planning on flipping it (which is fine, but don't get butt hurt about not being handed free money). $2k is an absurd price for a product like this. If you were planning on buying this to rip you just saved yourself money. Now go spend that $4k (that a case would have cost you) on a nice Ohtani auto and call it a day. I'm not one of those doom and gloomers constantly being negative about every release...but $2k for FIVE numbered cards none of which are guaranteed to be less than /75? GTFOH!! Even if you have the money to blow and pi$$ away, go do it on something else!

Interesting they squeezed in a blue foil /35 (when blues have typically been #'d to /150).

Here's one for $4k (though not sure if it's a good deal or not).

This is the only way to 10X their profits!

That's my point. Thank you!

People need to quit being butt hurt about not being able to get this stuff. It's 100% meant to be broken into microtransactions so people with gambling addictions can get their rocks off. It's the ONLY reason this exists. Spending $4k on two boxes of this (if you were planning to rip) is absolutely stupid.

As I said, the only way someone is upset about not being able to get this if their sole intention was flip.

[Boredlawyer]

Oh no, I wasn't rewarded for being a middle-man and adding zero value to a transaction, while getting to pocket a day's salary for hitting F5 and printing off a shipping label.

I was supposed to be guaranteed money because I was on the website at 11:00:00. Not fair.

Haha, I'm pretty sure that >95% of the people attempting to purchase 1-2 boxes were intending to flip it.

[bub838]

I fully intend to flip the box I purchased

I would have ripped 1 and then decide what to do with the other one based on the results of the rip.

[mossoholic]

Once they start running auctions with a high enough starting price 99% of the people that bought this today will be gone for good.

You got one?! Congrats bub!! Winner winner chicken dinner!

[Bob Ross]

Ok. Numbers time. With how the page is worded, it appears that parallels of the base cards do not count as a hit: "5 encased numbered cards per box: (4) Base Cards numbered to /99 or less; (1) Hit numbered to /75 or less"

Base Parallels

/99 Base
/75 Purple Foil
/50 Gold Foil
/35 Blue Foil
/25 Orange Foil
/25 Kanji-language Rainbow Foil
/17 Rose Gold Foil
/10 Black Foil
/5 Red Foil
/1 Foilfractor

This equates to 317 of each base card. 317*50=15850.

15850/4 = 3962.5 boxes

Good!

Flip the hell out of it. Let someone else with more money than brains be the victim.

Without a doubt. Likewise.
