NBA Top Shot - High Risk, High Reward?

[mjohnatgt]

I got two standard packs and got 7 60Ks, but one was Lebron dunk. The other moment I got a Halliburton RS.

Ended up getting a rare in 1 of the 2 elites

And hit a rising star in 4/5 standards.

Not bad.

The RS challenge will be Cade Cunningham. So i'll be waiting to sell my Okoro until that challenge starts. Right now it's at $26. Hope It doesn't tank. lol

Really hate the new format for TS packs. I like it for AD but hate it for TS. Mainly because 99% of S3 moments are 60K trade tickets fodder. At least for AD the highest mint count is 10K so it doesn’t feel as bad

[Eckstein197]

Btw in my 5 packs I did hit 2 RS. 1 Precious, 1 Sengun

I dont think mint numbers are as important as demand is.

You can have /1,000,000 mint but if 50,000,000 want it the price will be high.
You can have /100 mint but only 2 people want it, the price will be low.

Agreed.
They said they are doing it all month, but I don't think i'll be participating on further mixed packs unless its a KD type drop. For whatever reason, TS hasn't been good at executing this strategy like NFL/UFC with their numerous pack issues & randomization problems.

I think if the price of standard was $14 that would be better to me.

With Elite, you are guaranteed the themed moment, rare or legend so that price can stay the same.

I've gotten lucky in the GRG and rising stars drop. And to make money on these packs you really have to time it correctly. For example I got $30 on my embiid /9,999 because I was the first to list.

I would say I'm indifferent at this point regarding the new pack format.

And remember these are 60,000+, so we could be looking at 75,000 mint counts before all is said and done.

Yeah its kinda steep now, maybe if they threw in one or two more common moments it would be more bearable

SGA/10k and 7 commons/60k for me in Two packs. No dupes and no players I already had so it’ll help with some of the flash challenges. No great serials either so meh overall.

Starting to appreciate NFTs again, Physical cards are a hassle .

Moving, Grading, storing , shipping, handling physical cards suck.

Any advice from you Physical card users on what you use and configuration of shelves?

Rising Stars Drop #2 on Thursday, the legends in this one are historical, take a look to see what full team sets just got destroyed.

5 packs yesterday and only 1 RS moment. It was Franz Wagner which was nice but still took a loss overall. Don’t think I’ll be getting as many on Thursday, if I do go for it at all.

I'm hearing TS market is tanking? Is this true? I wouldn't know I haven't messed with it in so long. People in Discord mentioning whales are selling off.

Yes they are.

it isn't tanking, but I think people with high collector scores are realizing they pretty much abandoned CS with the new pack format.

Well, there are/were tons of releases across all dapper products (NFL, UFC, NBA) this week & people are selling to have balance for them. I know thats the main reason.

[Eckstein197]

You’re seeing a decent sized sell off in bottleneck moments that are getting 60Ks in the next couple pack drops. For instance the Vintage Vibes Klay Thompson was around 170 a week ago and now it’s around 100

Also the WNBA set has taken a big hit as well

[Eckstein197]

And as pyre said, lots of SB content from AllDay and the opening of the UFC marketplace has had people selling off moments to have dapper available for those projects. We are going to see these ebs and flows as major things happen with other platforms. It’ll take a few months to establish a better equilibrium once all marketplaces are up and running effectively

That's funny, because almost all of the people who hit holo's had high CS's & got them from elite packs lol

Yup this too. Rookie moments are crashing too because of the RS stars packs too.

Yeah that’s one thing I’m fine with, rookie prices were insane and this class being so good certainly hurts challenges. But more easily obtained bottlenecks being crushed sucks

Yup. That's the one thing that makes flash challenges fun.

[thejazzcollector]

Well my Jazz team set is gonna get screwed up tomorrow, as well as Raptors set collectors if anyone has them.
Hornacek and Vince Carter Legendary AS moments getting released /49…might be time to cash out some of my stuff because my Collector Score is about to be dead.

[thejazzcollector]

Also not really understanding the “legendary flash challenge” for tonight. For the entry, you need a single DeRozan holo icon moment and you get rewarded a DeRozan Silver metallic…which is the same reward as the “Hard” flash challenge?
