Umm, yes, stop asap. I've done 7 boxes so far and have yet to hit any /42s, and best silver is Mo Bamba. I have however managed to pull 2 150 point cards

In case anyone in the San Diego area..... about 10 blasters and 5 mega boxes and rwb packs at the Walmart on college ave. I bought one mega and 2 rwb packs as i don’t do much basketball. Just wanted to give the heads up.

Just opened mine up. Here’s a picture of my top cards.

6 silvers (no RC)
1 green (Pierce)
10 Pink Ice (3 RCs)

Is retail worth holding at all? I don't see it going up in price very much right? As for Hobby and FOTL that stuff seems to always sell well.

I think if Luka turns out to be a stud then yes even retail would be worth holding. Doesnt have to be Luka either, could be anyone with superstar potential.

Just Saw a guy pack searching sealed cellos at Walmart just now haha. Not sure how that would work.

Left an entire lot of cellos, mega boxes, gravity packs. Easy pass for me now, the overproduction killed the product for me

That's outstanding. Not sure what OP is complaining about. I guess any break without a Doncic silver is a bust to average Joe.

Gravity seems to be the only thing worthwhile. I'm hearing 2 purple pulsars /35 per gravity feed which is huge considering you can go 10 retail boxes and hit just a couple pink pulsars /42. Of course good luck finding a fresh unsearched gravity box.

I dont know how the target megas are, but the walmart ones are tough with only 3 silvers, although for $35 I guess not bad, I guess it would be equivalent to about 12 silvers compared to a cello box. How many silvers is a cello box yielding ?

i pulled 5 from each of mine, though only 1-2 rookie silver per mega. Averaged 2 rookie pink per box too.

(12ish day haul) I got 8 cello boxes 96 cello packs total, 10 target mega boxes and 1 gravity feed box 36 packs.

I used 20% coupons on most of what I bought. I also took advantage of the 10% gift cards last Sunday at Target ($500 card for $450).

96 cello packs= 288 packs, 36 gravity feed packs= 324 packs 4 cards each pack= 1296 cards.

10 target mega boxes= 60 packs 10 cards each pack= 600 cards

I had almost 2 complete sets from the break.

I was hoping for a Ayton, Luka, Young or Bagley but no go. I got 3 purple pulsars in the 36 packs from the gravity feed box. I am curious how common that was? Anyone noticing a pattern of rookie silvers like last years prizm?

Lastly, I noticed the 1st run of excel boxes last week came with 2 cellos, 4 mega boxes, 1 gravity feed box, 4-6 blasters.

One question I have is: do any of the veteran, retired, or HOF players command good money for the Silvers?
