Oof! I just got an email from Best Buy notifying me they're shipping the 5 hangers I had completely forgotten pre-ordering last week.

Thank goodness I stuck to just the one order!

I really want to buy a jumbo but can’t convince myself in this economy. Have fun. I better stick to my yearly goal of busting less wax. Can’t wait to buy a Brett Baty #’d single.

Yes, we do. It's on the pack odds. Series 1 gets ripped like crazy, starting several days BEFORE the official release day.

I gotta say, 250K for 330 cards comes out to $750 a card.

A lot of commons out there for under $100.

Without doing the math, I do wonder how easy it would be to make $50K or so off of this bounty.

It might be an easy example of "it takes money to make money"

Assuming you are the first to turn in right? Kinda risky.

Anybody know what the tax situation would be on something like this? Seems like Uncle Sam would get a pretty nice cut on both sides of this deal.

Yes as stated the pack odds are what they are. At this point with so many up I'd be tempted if I get any to hold until they dry up some. But that said at 150 per card x 330 cards there are still 49,500 total Golden Mirror cards. So 3x a Mothers Day or Fathers day.

One thing to keep in mind is Hangers haven't hit hard yet and they are 1:403 odds for a Golden Mirror SSP. So there is some value in certain retail assortments just not as easy in years past.

You pay taxes on profit. Pretty straightforward

Looks like you landed a pretty sweet /10 acetate card.

Grats.
