First Buzz: 2022 Panini Immaculate Collection WWE

[Brobocop]

Kind of surprised it's still up on Panini's site for $415. Big boys all at $500. Make it make sense lol. I get paid my annual bonus this Friday and am getting tempted to buy a box.

Received my Rey PC grail in the mail yesterday. The picture didn’t do it justice.

I just picked up a box for $363 all-in (Think someone else got them for $350 on here too). Great deal no doubt but personally I'd be looking around at the smaller LCS in your area if available that may not be as secure holding on to high-end wrestling products especially with the Prizm dropoff compared to the big boys who probably have no problem with 2017 Topps Heritage WWE still sitting available. A good point was made today that while a wrestling fan may see $350 for this and think great price, the average consumer especially one that isn't used to high-end like Impeccable, Immaculate, NT etc sees 6 wrestling cards for a crazy price and thinks its absolutely insane, just looking at the box wouldn't even know the hits.

I think $415 isn't bad but I think you'll be able to find lower shortly, especially if more Bloodline booklets get pulled, then then they'll slowly start to rise again based on availability, how long the lull is between this and next year's Prizm as the next set and if any of the rookies possibly get called up after Mania. Anything in the 300's would be a sweet spot for me, Chronicles/Select still go for around $200 places lol

Anyone know a good display case for the bloodline booklet?

If it were me, I'd submit it BGS or PSA even if it weren't going to grade well.

Way better to display booklets that way. I have a booklet in a BGS slab and can tell you that it's a great way to display

Don't know if they'd charge you more, but it may wind up being a wash by the time you find a one-touch or some other way to display it

Have a pic to share? I'd like to see. I see there's a bloodline booklet on ebay now but I don't like the looks of how it was handled in the sellers listing lol.

Will do if I figure out how to post pics or link an album lol

Still have to get it protected, sitting in the tin right now as the thick toploaders I got from Ultra Pro has a weird residue on them so no way was I using them. Looking at the two I think the Nikki is the shadowbox people are talking about and Austin is normal.

Gotta say my toxic trait is doing good on a box and immediately being inspired to get another box, thinking I can replicate that success I feel I did above-average but watching breaks is controlling my urge as most of the breaks are the big guys so it's cases and most boxes are rough, also don't like the redemptions, almost made me pass on my box, it's sad to almost be dissapointed if you DON'T see a redemption and it felt thats what this was becoming as the names added up

I had to buy my HHH redemption from ebay, but my box didn't have one.

Has anyone ever sold a card on eBay and had to ship it to their authentication and didn’t pass their authentication. Just had it happen today on my Mandy rose card I sold. They saying that I needed to update listing about the surface. My pictures are clean. I’m thinking something happened during shipping. I packed it good. Put cards around it in a team bag, into bubble mailer the bubble wrapped into a small flat rate priority box. Am I SoL now with them putting a case in? Is it even worth it to appeal it when I get the card back.

I've never done it but I have heard stories like this. Not sure what the process is or how effective it is but that's good that you have good quality pictures to compare when you get it back.

I don't know if it's the same "authenticators" but I've seen videos of clothing authenticators and I would not feel comfortable having some of the people check my cards.

This whole ebay authentication thing feels like a scam to me. I had an Immaculate card I bought go through it about 2 weeks ago. It was a relic/auto & I get an email from them saying it passed authentication....but they couldn't authenticate the autograph or the relic piece. So, what exactly are you authenticating; that it's actually a card? Felt like a waste of my time when I'd rather have just had the card 2 weeks earlier.

[rice71]

So I message the buyer and he sent me what they eBay sent him. They gave him pictures of a small indent line on the surface that I didn’t state. I missed it. I looked at my pictures and I had to zoom in to even see them. I wish eBay would have sent me the same message, they sent me a message stating I need to update information on the surface. Doesnt say if it’s front or back and no pictures showing me the defects. My message has a blurry photo of my auction picture front. I’m waiting to get the card back and I asked the buyer if he still wants the card, I would knock off a little off the price.

Had it happen to me once, on one of those metal cards in Impeccable. Also for a surface issue. I hate to sound like I am defending eBay but once I got it back, I did see a mark on it that I hadn't seen before that only showed if you had it angled just right in the light. So in my particular case, it probably saved me a headache if the buyer saw it and got mad.

But there is no appeal that I am aware of, all you can do is wait until you get it back in a few days, inspect it as best you can and if there is a mark (either new or old) make sure you mention it in the listing if you re-list.

I had to buy my HHH redemption from ebay, but my box didn't have one.

Took abit longer as the sleeves I bought had some weird film or something on them, either way def wasn’t using them for Immaculate cards but there you go.

I’d honestly take a HHH redemption over an Owens/Rey/Grimes, probably all together so in a way that proves my point lol there’s def big names even if Austin had been redemption just saying I remember seeing the list a few pages back and thinking everyone I’d be excited personally to pull is a redemption or so I thought lol

Great card. Yeah I rolled the dice and I'll make most of it back, and be quite happy once they get HHH to sit down with a pen at or before Mania.

Why are there no FOTL boxes of this for sale anywhere online?

1. People opened after the Prizm "investment" debacle
2. The FOTL exclusive was an extra auto /6, which I think points to not a huge production, plus its only cards from the mem/rookie mem checklist, you can't pull a base Sandman FOTL #/6 for example
3. The overall set seems to have a smaller production run than other Immaculate sets as base cards #/65, when NFL/NBA etc is #/99 and obv base run across all formats

How much of that went back into the HHH though? I'm just messing with you, and the Rey is nice especially since he's going into HOF now this year, I'm just salty that especially Hogan is a redemption, he would of been my top pull so having to be excited to see a redemption is kind of lame.

I hope HHH and others get those on-cards done at Mania, only worry on redemptions is everyone is counting on Mania when if they're too busy now Mania weekend is literally their biggest/busiest weekend of the year lol and we know Panini isn't diligent on getting these done. I'd also assume duals-up will be prioritized as it's more people to track down. Unlike other sports I have faith these get done but maybe not as soon as people think when there's other redemptions still I believe from other products to be done, beyond legends coming in for events current stars etc will prob still be pretty busy. I'm wondering where the event was they had the pics of Miz, Alexa, Bobby etc signing from and why more couldn't of signed then

Wax retailers don’t seem to be budging off of $500 for a box now that the Panini supply is gone. $500 a box is a massive gamble and breakers have moved on to other products.

You can get it on dealernet for $395 a box or $420 a box for a sealed case. That's without making a counteroffer.
