I honestly only wanted 2 boxes out of pure curiosity. Panini's crap IT team forced 6 boxes one me though.

Biggest hit will still be Ball, starting with his silvers, even though he sucks as a player, his cards sure don't suck lol.

Should be followed by Tatum, Fox, DSJ, then Monk. Not sure the difference is huge among those guys.

So, like a $20k savings for those of us here lucky enough to get any. Definitely not worth the collective time and effort wasted.

Just had the opportunity to almost buy one right now (was too slow). I don't think it's completely sold out yet

Yeah. I actually think Tatum is the real ROY here (but Simmons will take it).

Lonzo is... less convincing to me.

Suggestions for Panini going forward for similar releases:

4 box max order limit.

No re-orders while the site and apps are crashing. If people do anyway, don't fill the orders and place the boxes back in inventory. State that you will do this.

Tweet 10 mins ahead of time when the launch time will be, or don't do it at all.

Use captchas to eliminate bots which are clearly a big problem.

I won’t be surprised if all the red shimmers aren’t considered part of Basketball card history because of this crazy release and are therefore worth more.

One of my "pendings" is now gone. I expect the other one to follow shortly.

Panini could have easily put one red prizm /8 per box and still would have sold out. They could have produced double the boxes that way. Prizm is one product that didn't need too much sweetening. I don't think they realized how high the demand would be, especially since the first few products weren't all that great for them.

My box still says pending, so maybe I didn't even get one, haha. No email confirmation yet.

I'm gonna pull a Goldfinger and irradiate the whole production line of Prizm.

Enjoy your glowing red 'shimmering' prizms now, mwahahahahahaha!

My totals
Email confirm - 2
My account only shows 1 pending?
Charged for 6

Who knows how many I am getting...

The last tweet from Panini saying it is sold out is a joke. How about, we dropped the ball. We weren't prepared.
