I knew that it had to be you that bought the Blair off of ebay.

No reason not to break this product. The Bryant scratch-off cards are half the allure, and no reason to let this release be stored for future value. Unless you want to play the waiting game of "Syndergaard Super not pulled yet out of 286 boxes! May be in mine!!!" Still can't see that driving the price north of release point.

Agreed - I think that's what makes it a fun product, as well... You CAN sit on a box or case and IF it seems 75% has been busted and #1 #2 and #3 hits in the whole product run are still live, it would drive demand and prices up. I know it would convince me to pont up a Hundo for a shot.

I think Will said redemptions are valid for quite a while?

So, if most or all Willy Wonka tickets are claimed quickly, it'll still be a great break for "breakers" because people still have a shot at sweet prospect cards on release day or 1 year from release day and with a full checklist, everyone can know, to some degree, what hasn't been pulled or thought to be gone from the hitlist. Interest will always be there

The key would be, is there a time limited for the Bryant Chase Cards to be Redeemed, If only 4 out of 5 has been pulled, the lottery for the Superfractor will have to be delayed until all 5 cards are present I would think ... ???

It would make sense if they expire at that point, like all redemptions

What happens if any number less than 5 are pulled by the National? What if I have an unscratched Bryant Chase Card a week after the National? I doubt there would be a 4 week expiration on the chase cards.

Thinking out loud: Could it be that 3 non-winners are revealed at the National driving everyone to buy the rest of the unopened product? Just one scenario, there are many possibilities.

Hmmmm,
Vinny

I joined up in two different prospect rush breaks that fit my budget. I will be getting 2 packs and 2 base cards for the $180 I spent. Ouch!

It's a normal hobby pack just like if you were going to your LCS and grabbed a pack of 14 draft.

That's brutal without a doubt. $180 into about $4, and once you open the packs about $2.

So, the biggest million dollar QUESTION would be:

Does the Five " Chase For Bryant " Cards has any kind of expiration date on it ???

AND how do we really know every one of the five winner have come forward if it was not from one of the breaks ????

Ummmmmmmmmm....This is a pretty ridiculous question actually.

First, how can one million dollar question be bigger than another?

Second, they DO have an expiration date, it's called the Nationals where the winner will be drawn. If you miss that it's pretty hard to win it.

Third, there are breaks in other places (imagine that) and I'm sure if people pull the chance to win this card they will try and sell it or post that they got it. Any breaks that are recorded or seen will somehow be seen by at least one member here who will undoubtedly post that as "mojo" or some other silly term somewhere. I'd BET that more than one person will post each one within a few minutes of them being scratched.

Hope that cleared up your confusion.

I am just an outsider with no interest in this product. I am proud of the op for making money and building a nice product. One thing I do find funny is that when all the haters started then better cards started magically appearing. I think this wasn't going to be very good but thanks to the haters it caused the op to add alot of cards he had no plans of including in the product. This is just my opinion and I could be wrong.

Incorrect. Magically appearing???

Why would I post the best cards months before release? I believe in a gradual build up. I would have loved to have saved the best supers till the last few nights before release but dealers need to see what they are buying. Many of the Reds etc are from Houdinis 100 caser, that was a while ago. Also, many of the big cards I posted for all to see in the 200+ case break when they were raw. I still have a ton of cards to post but I'm currently way too busy getting ready for a week today!

So Will, any Bryant Chase Card that isn't scratched and revealed to be 1 of the 5 by the National is void? I don't think it's inconceivable that one might remain in a box somewhere. It certainly would help the odds of any tickets turned in by then.

Sorry but I'm easily confused. I do appreciate your transparency.

Haters had nothing to do with it. The very first card pictured with a Kris Bryant superfractor auto...it doesn't get any better than that so no, the good cards didn't just magically appear when the haters came.
