Walmart retail box or cellopacks have best hit rates?

Went back this morning, cello gone from last night (darn kids), grabbed three blasters, went around to grab what I came for, and did some blaster shuffling to find two more and then two more. I got to use the coupon so nice savings.

Ha, definitely the same store. Sorry to take the Ayton! I grabbed the top three packs from what looked to be a brand new cello box sitting on the shelf...maybe there’s a Luka still hanging up there.

Well against my better judgement I opened 2 of the 8 retail boxes I ordered from Wal-Mart last week. I even beat the odds and hit a pink pulsar in one of the 2 boxes and still threw up in my mouth a little. Back to Wal-Mart they go.

2 Blaster and 1 Mega box from Walmart online.

No notable cards. At least the base set is halfway done.

Really sucks that Walmart doesn't have any card/toy deals that Prizm would work in otherwise id be all over them. Couldn't pass up 3 mega boxes from Target for 110, saving them for christmas.

Spent about $400 on retail thus far. Have not hit one Luka base. Have hit plenty of rookie silvers, including two ayton, and one each of porter jr, bridges, sexton, etc.....so not complaining at all, but says something for the collation (or lack there of) of the product that you could hit 2 silvers of one player, and not even a base of another.

Again, not complaining, but just saying. I will say I've had MUCH better luck with Walmart retail than target.

Holy crap...my Target is LOADED. Probably 70+ gravity packs, 10 Mega Boxes, 40+ hangers...I didn’t even count the blasters.

I just can’t spend anymore...so tempting with the deal though.

I don't think it is searched because I saw a youtube of some guy who opened as much as you and around 20 cello packs. His best hit was a silver mid-tier guy. 1 of the worst I've seen.

The gravity feed should contain 35/36 packs and contain 2 purple prizm /35 and an auto. If his feed had 31 cards and he didn’t pull any of the purples or an auto it was for sure searched.

How many of you would still jump at the chance to buy 20 hangers and 6 Megas from Walmart? I have that opportunity and am debating

A week ago, I would have, but now that I’ve opened that much, no. I’ve pulled every good silver except for Luka, and have pulled a Pink Luka, Trae, JJJ and Ayton from about 7 Megas. If you haven’t ripped any, and are ok with possibly not getting a Luka, go for it. You are almost certainly not getting your money back at the moment, but it is still fun.

Maybe the Prizm craze is wearing off. Went to Target last night and the shelves were stocked with blaster and megas and the giant 10% off sign right in front.

Even I walked away from them....

After a bunch of gravity feed and cello packs treated me poorly of late I tried a blaster before the sale was over and that treated me much better

I’ve opened 8 megas, 8 blasters, and 36 hangers. Was lucky enough to pull silver Luka, Luka rookie signatures, 2 Ayton silvers, Sexton silver, Bagley silver.

I imagine it would be hard to top that.

The craze isn't wearing off, it's becoming the victim of homicide by overproduction
