There's too much value in these sets. If you put in a little work you can pretty easily get $300 value out of a set without even opening the pulsar pack, which has an average value around $70 by my estimation. That's an average of $370 in value, at this moment, without much hustle. Once singles dip over the next couple weeks and begin to rise again, sets will catch up.

General aesthetics and shorter print of the colored parallels aside, twice the fatbois and jas is really all the reasoning anyone needs.


Would have ordered more if not for fear of cancellations.

Samesies. I've still got one order of 3 sets that is "pending". Ain't holding out hope.

Zion x2 - $100
Morant x2 - $100
Luka - $25
Herro - $25
LeBron - $20
Sekou - $10
Bazley - $10
Barrett - $10

I didn't even get sweaty.

Das it mane.

Add in potential grading upside and things get nutty.


Obviously a lot will hinge on the performance of the two big rookies, but that applies to any 19-20 product.

A similar Lulu --> Trae second year leap....cah-ching.

Been looking at these closely with my 7 year old as we are educating ourselves on basketball players with this set. We love the look. For instance he loves the “honey” in this one

I’ve sold off $450 in cards from one of my sets so far without selling the Zions and Jas, RJ true rc, and quite a few other $8-$10 cards. Also haven’t sold any of the colored cards.

Yeah I like that too. I pulled a Dort auto from Chronicles a couple weeks ago. Didn’t know he was in it because he doesn’t have base cards.

The live bubble photography in these is everything. Hard to top that Herro shot.

Man....people are tripping over themselves trying to sell their singles lower then the next guy. I bought mine too early. Amazing bargains out there right now!

Opened two boxes and hit this! Packs are very hit or miss... second one was not great. Can't complain though! Does anyone know the approximate print run on these?

Thanks! Do you also have an idea on what the value could be? Threw it up on eBay for $2,500 OBO but honestly have no clue on what it could go for. Thinking of maybe putting it on a 24hr auction but not sure if the demand is there quite yet.

At least wait until the preseason.


Selling Zion right now is giving away free money.

Had to wait a while for these to finally arrive but did pretty well on my first 5... Zion came with the RJ and the Ja came with both Rui parallels! One of the back corners on the Zion Black is pretty beat up but can’t complain too much about these rookies

Rright now it is pretty stupid to keep these sealed especially if opening in bulk. If you want to piece out just the bigger cards even if you just do ok on the pulsar packs you'll piece out the good cards from the set for $400-$500. So really makes no sense to keep sealed and hope in the future to get $400-$500 sealed when you could open now and basically do that at worst. Or you could hit a bunch of big pulsar cards and do way better.

Stupid to keep these sealed, really?
