Be sure not to leave these sealed in the Target boxes.


I was shorted a set in one of my boxes. Not happy.

I indeed was. But, also agree that prizm is much more searchable than stock.

We get it dude..this product sucks and will be a loser and you want it to happen so you can beat your chest and tell random people on a card message board how right and awesome you are. Just be happy with your fanatics football stuff and whatever else you are sitting on and making profit on and leave the rest of us alone. We dont need daily reminders on how much this product is gonna tank

Target does this routinely. Was shorted one blaster box recently.

But there are people who leave stuff sealed in their shipping boxes thinking that would somehow add to their value. It's just shipping tape not BBCE wrap lol.

Haha. 2 or 3 years from now, those pulsar bonus packs will go for 1k alone. Imagine if they had this Lukas first year!!! They would be $3k per set. I dont know how you loose on these at current prices. Especially if you can be just a little patient.

Most the guys posting in here probably don’t have or know what a 401k is.

No, No, you are thinking of a Roth IRA. 401k is the stuff you put in your car to make sure your radiator doesn't freeze.

Good or bad idea to cash out my 401k for more sets?

Great idea.

401k is basically the thing that keeps worker bees working their jobs for 30-45 years. The promise of retirement for working jobs most people hate or at least dislike. 401k is great if you love you job and want to not retire until you're in your 60s or 70s. But its basically a tool to keep the worker bees in line.

In my portfolio I have 90% long term investments and around 10% in speculative investments. I told my wife I was making sports cards my speculative investment because I am way more interested in them than I am in stocks. She said whatever and I went with it.

I’d rather retire at 65-70 with a phat 401k (and a great healthcare plan) than trying to score some 2040-41 prizm Bkb blasters to flip so I can pay for my hip replacement.

Lol 2040? I can tell you from me personally that selling too early in just the last 3 years here has cost me at least $500k. And it's not like I had hundreds of thousands tied up in that stuff. Not even $100k worth. I don't know what you consider retirement money but if the hobby market keeps going the way its going if you have a decent amount to put in wax and singles and hold I don't see how in the next 10 years you won't make over $1 million. Again that's if the market keeps going the way it is which is speculative.

Only part that was a joke was swapping your whole 401k for sets. If I could just straight trade for say 100 sets at around $16k with no fees the money I've put in my 401k do that in a heartbeat.

Sage words, and definitely did not expect this. Hope you all got resolution on your shorted orders

I will make more than $1 mil in the next 10 years just from my normal salary.

I’ll be 65 in 2039 so I don’t know what’s funny about 2040... and my 401k will be worth more than anything I could make with hoarding wax.

Dividends add up over 40 years.

You once mentioned in another thread what you make a year... well, with my company match, I contribute almost that much a year to my 401k.
