There is no clear superstar YET, but a bunch of candidates makes this set a really desirable investment.

It's probably contingent on a lot of factors. Just to name a few:

(1) Availability of supply. How many boxes will still be sealed? Out of those, how many will be made available?

(2) Superstar(s) from the draft class

(3) The number of black/gold/red shimmers of the key cards known to be pulled. More of those known to be pulled => less chances of hitting a monster => more risky to buy at a high price => less demand for it at a high price.

(4) Prizm as a whole. Does the demand for this product hold up, does it increase, or does it implode? '

(5) How long are we talking about? The value will be significantly different between 5 years down the road versus 10 years down the road. Same with 20 years down the road. And it's largely influenced by the stuff above.

(6) Economy. How does it hold up?

At $120/box for FOTL boxes, I absolutely feel there's insignificant risk in holding (short-term, long-term, whatever term). Even if the bubble were to burst 100 times, I highly doubt one would have trouble offloading their box for what they originally spent plus inflation. I feel there will always be a buyer lol. Probably one of us too. I could be wrong though.

At $250-300/box for FOTL boxes, there's a little more risk but still don't see any real concerns.

At $400+/box, it starts to get a little scary. With that said, we've seen some crazy valuation for hobby/jumbo boxes of the past few Prizm releases. If it's a short-term hold, probably minimal risk. If it's a long-term hold, good luck!

I was just able to retrieve my 2 cancelled boxes by called 1-817-622-5205.
Sounds like it was a pretty common issue and the person I spoke with was very nice about everything (I believe his name was Eric).

Well it appears my case has been delivered and signed for along with my loose box. I've also received my refund e-mails. I hope this process is finally done! What a crazy thread

Besides the card i posted above i did pull one Tatum and a couple 1/1's. I don't really know much about either of these guys so i did a little research and OG looks like he may have some potential. What are the odds i pull two 1/1's in 5 boxes? I was kind of surprised...i wish they were better players though.

Holy ***. Well done. OG is quite popular. Are you thinking about moving the OG 1/1?

These FOTL boxes really are loaded compared to regular hobby. Either that or i was just lucky. Not all of my boxes were incredible but they were pretty decent. Pretty good value imo.

I also pulled this Lonzo (not a fan will be selling or trading) as well as a bunch of smaller cards Mitchell red ruby, Lauri Markkanen mojo. Plus a bunch of base rookies.

You pulled 2 RC 1/1s, a Dennis Smith Jr red shimmer (non-emergent version), a Lonzo mojo auto, a Mitchell red ruby, Lauri Markkanen mojo, etc.

I guess it depends on how many boxes you ripped. I'm assuming 5 based on what you said earlier. If so, your boxes were incredible and you destroyed it.

Down to only 4 listings for FOTL boxes on Ebay. 6 pop up but 2 or not for actual boxes.

People breaking this are still getting big pulls! Can't wait for tomorrow to open a couple

Sales today ranging from $410 to $430.....

Just as the urge to break is growing so is the price, so I have good reason to keep them sealed.

That and the fact that they are packed away in a suitcase in the trunk of my car ready to evacuate tonight if necessary.

I'm thinking your guess of under 25 cases is probably correct that are out in the market
