This one is a pass from me. There's simply no fun in chasing ever higher prices for current year boxes. Others can have them.

I agree. The more people outside the breaker community stop ripping the better. Takes a village though to even make the smallest dent.

I'm also not sure this sells out at light speed tomorrow. There is no quick flip money in it at all.

10 blasters seems like a better buy.

I think I'm going to take my chances with retail.

I bought this and am surprised many people are passing. Even after taxes and shipping, this is cheaper than you can find elsewhere online.

I agree that a strong argument could be made that 10 blasters is better value, but if you were considering buying a Bowman hobby box anyway, this is perhaps the best option.

Also, someone mentioned that they think it will go down in price. What is the last bowman product to go down in price after release? 2021 draft and 2021 bowman chrome both shot way, way up after release. I can't recall with 2021 Bowman, but otherwise you'd probably have to go all the back to 2020 Bowman Chrome for a Bowman release that didn't climb steadily in price after release.

EDIT: It's funny because I'm usually the one that passes on stuff and sometimes regrets it. Backwards with this release.

I think if you wound up buying it to keep sealed, it’ll only go up overtime. That is of course someone in the class does really good. Prices won’t come down for a lot of this stuff because too many people would lose money...

It's a good price-point if you plan to rip.

If you plan to flip/hold sealed, just wait one more day until it releases to the general public. Then you can apply a 10% discount code and save $30. Even then, it's not that exciting.

Bowman Hobby went live at $299, followed by 50 posts of people who need someone else to make decisions for them.

I think it’ll sell out pretty quick. Which’s why it’s allowing members to buy first on a public release.

Regular old Bowman? I don't understand. It's not like we need a pre-sale. This will be readily available. No thanks.

I mean I know it's higher than usual and 10 blasters does seem like a MUCH better deal, but still about $60-100 cheaper than elsewhere.

Agree. I'm betting the bots will be out for this one tomorrow and the public release won't last longer than an hour or so if that.

Getting first access to overpriced product feels awful and it's only going to get worst. At this point I'd be grateful for a MC member discount for purchases on the store.

Bots going crazy for a product they can probably get for around the same price elsewhere?

LOL.

Bots only go crazy when they can flip a product immediately for GOOD returns.

Have bots left any Bowman product alone in the last couple of years? Maybe they hit a price point that will make it too unattractive, but it's still the cheapest price available even after shipping and taxes so I'm not holding my breath.

Please reread my past comments... this will only go up from the 330 price overtime, if a superstar comes out of this class plus it’s wander rc so he’ll have autos to chase.

Isn't Bowman a better multi-bix break so that you can have quantity of players? Seems like $300 for a single box (unless you plan on buying more elsewhere) isn't worth it.

Seeing that I had the opportunity to easily buy 2022 Bowman BB blaster boxes from WM, yes.

Bots don't go crazy for products where margins are slim (with the exception that demand for a given product is outrageously high and they can move bulk fast and secure a good profit).

Prices will come down just be patient. All the hopium and FOMO won't last. Also IMO buying singles is the best option.
