Superfractor of this from Chrome sold for $1k on an offer on Friday, so a little lower than that is best guess right now. That $1k does seem too low based on some other sales, but prices are just super variable with this and Chrome right now because of how new the F1 hobby is.

There were 2 superfractors for each base card in Formula 1. The one that sold was the 70th parallel that is 1/1 but not stamped. So I think the para 1/1 may go for more than this card but I think from another thread a BIN of $3000 may be a good starting point.

All true, but padparaschas haven't shown to be anywhere near as desired as superfractors. Goes back to auction being the best option for a card like this.
Almost guaranteed to get more through auction than BIN OBO.

Related topic, I'm wondering if there is a buying spike in a few weeks with Monaco (the Super Bowl of F1) coming up.

Use some common sense lol

Wow I think you're the first person I've seen to only hit 1 colored parallel.

And just to be sure I'm not missing it, there's no stamp on the inside of this box, correct? Just the UPC and the sticker.

I'm not sure when this became ok.

A year or two ago, if someone would be positing box weights on here you would get a vacation, and heavily ridiculed. No one should be weighing boxes, who is an honest person.

What would be the point? If its a light box you sell it sealed? Heavy you open it? Yea, thats not ethical.

Well, I did hit a Hamilton SP so not to upset. But yeah, I could not find a date stamp on the inside of any of my boxes.

I wouldn’t be ashamed about it. I tested this theory with some fat packs last year when the whole Phil’s Pulls / Striker Breaks thing was going down and I found little difference. Most of the difference was due to security tags, amount of packaging used, etc. not hits / autos. That said, the only time I whip out the scale now is to weigh packages for USPS.

I typically like to keep wax sealed but I guess I let my curiosity get to me when I saw it on thread mentioned.

I found out I had a variation when checking eBay

This was very helpful, thank you. I just checked my box I bought on ebay again as it had three (weak) hits or so i thought but it had a Hamilton variation too! Thx again for the info.

Caved and opened my box. I think this was a pretty bad one by comparison. I guess it comes down to how I do on the Russell.

0 RCs from 1-20. 75% of the box was F2 guys, owner cards, and logos...

Received shipping notification from Topps UK that my F1 Sapphire boxes have shipped. To my surprise, they are shipping both boxes from my order. I guess they realized it was their fault that two boxes were added to my cart after the site crashed instead of the max of one.
