Yup this is BS...trying to buy a few things this morning and nothing will get me past the listing page...keep getting some stupid error no matter which one I try for.

They need to fix this stuff if they want to be at that next level...

Is there a way to get in line for the pack drop now or do you have to wait until it says join drop on pack page?

Inverse: people have done very well despite your disbelief.

Not sure why someone with no skin in the game needs to play lifeguard here, unless your opinion of yourself is truly that high. Maybe get some fresh air.
You realize that not everyone wins in this right? That fact has gone over A LOT of people's heads in this very thread.

I haven't been able to sign into my account for past 90 minutes.
I think Top Shot is super interesting, but

-can't withdraw $
-packs impossible to get at source
-constant website/login issues

I'm getting less and less interested in being a long term player.

Wow. You’ve uncovered a secret plot that people with money want more money. Unfathomable. We need to get you you’re own tv show. And quickly.

Am I the only one concerned about the drop in sales? It's still great numbers but they are basically selling 25% of what they were 2 days ago.

This is how it works. It peaks and then slows down and then picks back up and peaks again. I think this weekend we will hit an all time high in sales.

Look at the two week growth. Not two days.

The buyer pool was hovering at 2000 only ten days ago.

Did anyone see the topshot mod saying 1000 packs in the drop are reserved for NBA players?

It can be concerning, yes, but it also depends on what you buy. I'm only interested in Series 1 at certain price points based on print run. They have held steady.

Those sales were unreasonable. If they could have maintained $50M in sales for a year that would have been $18B in sales and almost $1B in transaction profit. It was never going to be more profitable than the NBA itself is.

If it can hold at $5M in sales over 24 hours that’s an insane number. The $9M it’s at is still extremely good.
