Pretty sure he meant box.
My bad. Yes, meant box.
So even with the "a lot more value in that box" would you argue that it approached 5K, 6K? 4? 9K? in total value?

In regards to the Kershaw auto, it sounds like it was from an unopened pack.

Sure PR added that pack in there but let's not try to make it seem like he specifically added a nice Kershaw auto

Do you buy 1 slot per break?
just curious how many slots a typical person buys when they buy in for $9.01

Yes last one I did, but I'm going to buy a few in each the next break. I love the repacks. I did some team drafts on blowoutTV for a couple boxes also.

While houdini didnt do crap and to suggest so is comical this product has some serious security issues. All one has to do is obtain the few seals from some online company and clean out the boxes. It has come to my attention that ALL SEALS on this box can be ordered online, even the one which says PR name.

The ones on the plastic "box" come off with no residue left behind if you take 2 seconds to be carefu and the outer one can be bought for cents if you order 100.

I agree.. that plenty void sticker on the pelican case is comical and the s/n sticker just didn't stick with pelican box.

Dare I say he was in a rush and took those type stickers and the boxes for granted.

I agree. And considering people make these all over the internet the one on the cardboard box can be had also. Lets be honest the person making them will not know who PR is and make them with no hesitation. So all are easily replaceable sadly for the consumer.

Also, I think it is funny that your genius theory has me adding a $5k card to the box through unscrupulous means (for what purpose)... but not keeping it. If I am so untrustworthy, why wouldn't I keep it?

I didn't accuse you of anything. I just said it was odd that the sticker that is supposed to act as a seal did not work properly. Was this fault of the PR? Probably so. You would think that someone that charges 8k for crap product could afford a freakin sticker that actually does what it was supposed to do.

I'm on the record with others that think this type of product is a cancer to the hobby. It's junk. I get your position as a 'breaker'. I doubt you could care less if it PR, draft, or graded sets that you are breaking. Break it and ship it. You are very good at what you do and I have no beef with you, its the product I do not care for.

I'm not a fan of how this whole deal PR Draft went down. ML starts a thread claiming to be regular Joe that is going to break 250 cases. Stating that he got such a great price point that it was worth the gamble. He was willing to sell cards to individuals to help fill their needs. Halfway thru, somebody figures out that ML was behind PR. Game changer. Now, nothing is for sell. It turned into self promoting, 'look at what I just hit'. Everyone knows the rest of the story from here.

All repack products are open for corruption. I think we can agree on that. When PR numbered the boxes on the outside it makes it more suspicious. Is it possible that PR knows what numbered boxes have what cards in them? Sure it is. Is it possible that he knows what cases contain said boxes. I'd say that is possible? Is it possible to remove stickers to open boxes to see what #'s are on each box? Yes, that was proven last night. Is it possible that BO sent known hot boxes to you to break? Possible. I will stop there.

I do not think you would purchase a card and insert into a PR box. That makes no sense. I and others just question the timing of the hit. Coincidence? Possible

Are you serious? It wasn't "figured out" that ML was behind PR halfway through the 250 case break. ML has been a member here for years and has released two other series of PR. This is common knowledge.

If you're gonna trash a guy, at least get your facts straight so you look like a bit less of a fool.

A) you seem to know nothing about this forum or the history of it's users and
B) No one forced anyone to buy PR. People bought it from their own greed chasing what they saw as something they could possibly profit off of.

I wish this happened more often maybe people would actually research products instead of just throwing money at it hoping to hit a quick profit.

5000th post of the thread deserves to be quoted

I agree with your assessment as well. I do enjoy the thread as a whole. Tin foil hats and all.

Maybe??? I think it's more likely Haiku comes back here with "beats for everyone" than PR ever posts here again.

How can he justify posting again after putting out this garbage and then disappearing? What could he possibly say? "My internet was out last summer but I'm back to break cases of 2015 Draft?"

I understand what you are saying, but seriously, how can he return and have any credibility? He pimps his product for months as the greatest ever. He is on here non-stop. Updates daily, etc. Then as soon as it releases and people see it's complete garbage, he never shows his face again. I would have to think he would at some point in time have to justify his disappearing act.

In conclusion, if there is a Prospect Rush 4 and it sells ANY boxes, I think I'm going to give up on humanity...or at least on people in the BO forum.

I honestly don't remember the first or 2nd release, were they not similar in nature to this one?

LOL...I am a car salesman. I put everything in writing and stand behind everything I say. If I promise you a price of $28K and it should have been $29K (I made an error,) we stand by $28K.

Please don't offend car salesmen by putting them in league with Will! We don't take kindly to that!

Yes, but they were at about 10% of the price point. Increase the stakes...increase the ill feelings.

He gains nothing by posting in this thread. You guys would be all over him like a pack of hyenas. If he does post in this thread it will be with info pertaining to the product and not to respond to the vultures.
