Will Fanatics notify either way? Or only if you win?

Good system we got here

Would it maybe be more fair if they split some of the inventory between EQL and then just did a normal, timed release on their own website?

Assuming EQL is run legitimately fairly, you first have a shot there without having to fight the bots. And then you can have a second chance on the normal release if you are prepared at the opening of the window.

I dunno, just spitballing. Because even if EQL really is on the up and up, it becomes unfair by definition at a certain point (Jwax's screenshot above is a perfect example) when you have product after product that's hidden behind a mysterious lottery draw instead of just giving us a chance at grabbing stuff the "normal" way.

I have had much greater luck 'fighting the bots'. Have literally gotten every product I wanted pretty much up until now/EQL.

Just posted this an hour ago on their FB page. Congrats to the lucky 100 sucks for the rest lol

ANNOUNCEMENT: 100 lucky boxes of 2024 Cosmic Chrome will feature a card numbered to /10 in EVERY PACK.

If you are lucky enough to find one of these boxes, you'll notice that every pack is red when you open the box.

Highlights of my 5 boxes... not sure how bad this is since no clue what a Martian will end up being. I would guess that, the Imanaga and Carter /5 will be the best if I were to sell, Figures that my 1 auto out of 5 boxes is not someone very collectable.

1 Skenes base, 3 Eli base with a Cosmos and ETT

3 White Hole : Mason Winn, Jordan Beck and Eovaldi

Best Refractor - Domingues

as a small time breaker.....product don't flow lol

I'd prefer to do away with eql, I'd rather fight the bots because honestly I think my chances are higher against them

plus eql charges sales tax when I'm tax free through topps...I've heard eql black list you if you try to get tax free through them

Side note, one of my box lids was slightly pressed in from shipping and you could see the packs are all silver. Those red pack boxes will be easily seen to anyone who wants to press the lid in

Won elq for 4 boxes or whatever crap that is? Lost on a case. I hate this process!!

[Jwax13]

Single box from LCS.

I’m usually not a fan of gimmicky products but the inserts in this set are actually super dope.

“Space is EXCITING!!”

[sandyfrank]

Took the EQL L

Used the link to buy a box from Topps Europe so we will see how that goes.

Congrats to all who got in, looks really cool.

[JWBlue]

A space theme isn't horrible but I think if they took it more seriously it would have been better.

[PuddleMonkey]

Each year I'm drawn to this release but I just can't allow myself to be duped like everyone else. The production numbers and prices don't line up.

[anusinha]

I guess no more point for me to bust this. Is this still ssssssssssp? Theres no odds for the PP insert set on the odds sheet.

I’m so salty… missed out on both Cosmic and sapphire on EQL. I just wanted one box, but I guess it’s ok… as long as the breakers make money, I guess it’s worth it.

[green4407]

Here's my first box.
