Dont think a lotto would work...conspiracy theorist would be out in force (back door,employee friends,holding back,etc....not much can be more fair than putting out in open market

I bought some regular at $1,100 since I didn’t get filled on FOTL. Good luck to everyone who got some

Sorry if this was posted and I didn’t notice but does anyone have the RPA checklist?

blowout does that for black friday right?

BO limits some of the hotter Black Friday products by household, so they will only ship a certain amount of boxes to a given address, any purchases beyond their limit they will cancel.

Of course, there's always ways to get around those controls, with both BO and Panini

[regularp]

I finally got a confirmation email for one box. First time getting all the way through.

[airharrison21]

Every time I clicked the box on the app, an error would pop up. Couldn't get passed that. First time that's ever happened.

I missed some fotl and white sparkle weeks ago. I deleted the app and install it again. It worked in my end today

Most people who are claiming a high number of these either are trolling or had friends / family help and include that in the total. Cutting it to 1 order per account wouldn't make a difference.

The system isn't the best and can be frustrating but panini gave out 1.5-2 million dollars to the collecting community today in a 10 minute span. I think we have a better shot at it currently this way vs a lottery system that gets around as millions of dollars in free value being gifted.

That would probably be the fairest/easiest thing for panini to do. Panini does listen. They updated the app to make its smoother (though I’m 0-2 with the new app), added measurements to try to combat bots and trying to minimize orders (the amount you can order is shrinking) so more people get product. It’s not perfect but it’s better than no fotl at all. Just like every release people who get product talk about how easy it’s as and praise fotl, people that get shut out call the system garbage.

I’m guessing this the last big fotl release for basketball this season. I think there could be a fotl spectra but that doesn’t near have the popularity as other releases. Next “big” one for basketball will probably be 19-20 prizm?

$2500-3000. Guess i won’t be ripping 13 boxes looking for trae and Luka like i did for fotl football searching for Sam and baker.

Yes BO does. Again, negates to an extent. You can still have multiple accounts, family and friends helping, etc.

Won’t knock anyone who wants to flip. I was disappointed because I legit wanted to crack one box. Next yes with Zion perhaps luck will fair better.

This is exactly the greed he was talking about. He didn't say you couldn't make money at it. Only that greed was preventing people from being able to rip a box.

Greedy people don't care, I know.

Here we are now 4 hours after release and its interesting to see how many members were able to get 1-2 boxes, but I haven't seen anyone post that they have or are planning to sell to BO at $1,750.

Looks like the majority are either breaking, holding, or selling elsewhere for a lot more

I think if you are selling to BO you would be wise to wait a little. The first offer for NT should go up. At least wait until the 2nd offer.

And they may hold firm at $1,750 until release date for the simple fact they don't want word to get around that they changed their offer. After all, these are verbal commitments until the customer ships to BO. But once release day hits, it will be fair market value. If boxes are still retailing for $2,800, BO will be buying at 2400-2500 guaranteed

I’m all for doing whatever you want with the box. But there was one guy pages ago who was like, “is $2700 fair? I got an offer for that much and I’m not sure if I should take it. I don’t collect basketball.” Is a net profit of $1900 fair? What?!?
