200 total sets.

YayNJ · 09-07-2022, 11:08 AM

Dang it looks garbage.

Basically paying $500 for her autograph.

looks like something Leaf would churn out.

Onepocketj · 09-07-2022, 11:08 AM

200 boxes at $500 each.
Topps trying to cash in for a quick 100k.

I like Emma but I think she's too inconsistent. Pass for me

zworykin · 09-07-2022, 11:18 AM

I was at the U.S. Open final last year to see her win.

I'm not buying this.

stanmarsh · 09-07-2022, 11:21 AM

The next Serena. Bought 2 boxes.

YayNJ · 09-07-2022, 11:22 AM

Someone has it on eBay already for $1999 lol

Jagsfansunshine · 09-07-2022, 11:25 AM

Pass at $500 - I'd buy at $200. She needs better coaching... Nice player, talented, but overpriced for her & I don't like when they do entire box sets dedicated to one player.

mwheeler27 · 09-07-2022, 11:25 AM

With only 200 boxes, I could see this being a product where people are upset they missed out.

I'll probably be wrong.

mnvikingstwins · 09-07-2022, 11:27 AM

Too high

mnvikingstwins · 09-07-2022, 11:27 AM

She's making way too much money with endorsements and modeling to need to take tennis serious enough to be competitive long term and it shows with her low fitness level

mwheeler27 · 09-07-2022, 11:32 AM

The negativity is making me want to buy more. LOL

I don't see too much of a risk here. But like I said above, I'll probably be wrong.

It feels like when Ace Authentic did Maria Sharapova limited edition box releases.

I bought 12 Sets and my brother grabbed 4. I don't see much of a downside.

Jagsfansunshine · 09-07-2022, 11:40 AM

She won the US Open last year by being in a zone and hitting weak players with a fantastic draw. And she defeated a weakened Fernandez in the final. Her trajectory since then has been pointed down. Seems like a risk.

Fitness isn't really a problem, she suffers with chronic blisters on her fingers and palms. (steady on boys) she's literally in agony most times she plays.

This exactly. Her path to the US OPEN was one of the easiest (if there is such a thing) to GS win.

She's beaten two former world number one's since then and had injuries.

You have to remember she barely played any junior tennis because of Covid. Her record is actually very good for someone of her age / experience.

psochaps · 09-07-2022, 11:46 AM

In for 5.

mnvikingstwins · 09-07-2022, 11:48 AM

Track record for 18-20 yo has been awful for women's side. Bouchard Kenin Anisimova Andreescu etc

She'll be close to worthless like all the 99% of tennis players the last 15 years even when they won more and/or better looking.

Short term there's always a sucker to flip to.

k13 · 09-07-2022, 11:51 AM

Almost impossible for woman to stay consistent and last long enough to be relevant long term.
