I dont do a ton of fb these days but in bowman baseball, wwe and soccer they do for sure - sets and player lots.

Tiger23 · 02-08-2023, 09:52 PM

Player lots or team sets is the way to go. College collectors especially would not want anything from a rival

Probably not so much in NFL products with 400 cards of half active/half retired players, but baseball base sets always sell and are a great way to get money back from Hobby cases.

Ehh. Not sure I agree. I’m a die hard PSU fan but potentially the most valuable card I own is a Tom Brady emerald Flawless Collegiate on card auto #/5. In his Michigan uni. I love college football and probably am one of the few junkies that has collected the full base sets of all the draft sets going back to 2017. I know I am an outlier but for me college collecting is more fun than pro.

Any chance we see sapphire?

ninjacookies · 02-09-2023, 12:22 AM

No need to break it into sets unless you miss the draft $$ train and late to the party.

Quantity listings of singles or singles lots are the ticket.

Could one surmise that only fans want singles?

Hail2TheVictors · 02-09-2023, 03:55 PM

I usually do player lots, but man that crap accumulates and I often wonder if I should just sell sets. Too much stuff accumulating in boxes, and taking up too much space.

Pushed back to the 22nd

i probably have 50 base sets from last years Bowman U and have yet to sell a one of them lol. I love the fact that all this years cards are Chrome, last year, the corners got dinged way too easily.

I am still breaking last years product but will probably be in for a couple cases myself, but not initially

How else is one to avoid the doldrums of salacious group busting?

Just sold 50 paper sets last week. They were cheap but they sold.

hairysasquatch · 02-09-2023, 09:40 PM

I would buy a 100-card set of this product if anyone is selling.

It's all my poverty-a$$ can probably afford right now.

Makes sense with Series 1 dropping the 15th.

Im about to get a Case. My only question is how are preorders shipped? do they ship on release day? a few days before so they kind of arrive by the date?

What would a 100 card base set sell for reasonably? I mean the Levis, Bryce Young, Stroud, Caleb Williams. JJ McCarthy stuff etc I imagine would go for more than common rookies. Would $100 be an appropriate price range to sell a set for? I see someone selling the unlicensed paper set on EBay for $15, someone else sold one for $49, but again, that's unlicensed paper and it's missing a lot of the much in demand rookies that the Chrome set will contain. Someone else is asking $150 for a complete set of Pink parallels which I think would be more in line with licensed Chrome. They are asking $150

I don't know yet. I think we'd have to see where they were selling after release. $100 doesn't sound ridiculous. $150 maybe a bit high.

I might throw some of these sets together, I am probably going to wind up with 2000 cards from the case and boxes I bought, so maybe I can come up with 2-3 complete sets

RainCityShecks · 02-10-2023, 12:41 PM

This product looks awesome. In.

glassofwater · 02-14-2023, 12:10 AM

I was deciding between hobby, or a blaster case. After seeing how topps just ruined retail odds with crazy print run and odds for series 1.

I went with hobby. Maybe this will be different. but just in case. im in for a case. cant wait..

I have to think the print run on this is going to be less than S1 Baseball.
