Nice! Are you opening them or holding for a while?

Holding. Always hold!

I'm confused why you'd pay $1k for a Hobby box of basically anything these days..

Especially Prizm and Optic.

You could go buy LeBron, Steph and KD Revolution Galactics for less.

Luka too.

Baffling. It's not 12/13 or 13/14 product anymore.

Anyone paying $1k and opening is negligent

I'll just buy and hold until boxes are back to $100

why is there no Josh Giddey in the 2021-22 Chronicles? Did I miss something?

Are you talking about chronicles draft picks? He's in the checklist by the looks of things

Cheers for the heads up mate, wasn’t going to bother with any select retail this year but at retail prices couldn’t help but snag a couple!

Hi
Just in case anyone in brisbane is after select hangers/blasters.
I was in zing pop culture at garden city today and they had numerous of both types at retail prices.
Hope this helps someone

I thought exactly the same thing when I got the email

Gives me more money to throw on the credit card

Looks like they're taking the money soon

Anyone going for the new stuff? (Hoops/Donruss)

$300+ for Hoops and $500+ for Donruss with only one auto is a big no from me.

I have learnt a bit from this year, so will definitely be targeting only the big ticket products for holding next year. Not sure i will even buy any retail (unless i get it at kmart/target)

A prizm retail box or blaster is probably the best value right now. Paying $590 for 2 $5 autos in a recon box just doesn't make sense to me.

I opened a Recon box on Saturday. I got lucky with a half decent auto, but man i was one auto away from a $50 box
