Optimum 2022

[Theia]

One positive is the second hand sellers are not able to search cases , well because there aren’t many for sale . They get the product straight from Select and send it out , but you pay the price for that. Imo it’s open to some disingenuous behaviour when a case is purchased and boxes are sold separately that’s why the boxes are cheaper at times .

Optimum series 1 box sell for $550 even if you land a dual signature you will only just make your money back maybe. Second hand box market is strictly for breakers.

If I cannot get for retail I am not going to feed the flippers so many pay flipper prices So why should they not target it when there so many happy to pay double and more and feed them flippers year in and year out

Good luck today this will be the last release I bother with I’m done going forward I run a business and have officially been pushed aside, that’s life time to move onto other things in life, can’t wait for this bubble to burst and select come running back to the people who have propped them up for years when no one wanted it. And there are plenty of us resellers in the same boat.

bloody spot on

 

[DARREN]

as i said i call it the 30 second sale if you are not checkout buy them bang sold out

 

[Iron Clad Lou]

Not disagreeing with you but what’s the answer ? A ballot perhaps one box per person only for public sale imo

Like fanatics. Ballot and you're charged if you are selected.

 

[DARREN]

i think nothing is changing i just love select saying they cancel bot orders and other people doing the wrong thing i just laugh most of the bloody member are flippers just cannot control this you just have to suck it up and deal or just stop collecting just as my friends have because of this bullshit

 

[Theia]

You know i'd be less critical of Select if the increase profit over the last few years resulted in quality control and costumer service, twice now they've refused to respond about my Sam Mitchell Club Champion card being cut to the wrong size.

 

[DARREN]

They have costumer service they never reply

 

[BJD]

I've actually never had an issue with Select's customer service. They have always responded to my queries and in a timely manner as well.
As for the release, flippers and what not. People can sit here complaining until the cows come home but the fact of the matter is, that is the hobby now. It has become a cash cow for flippers, just like sneakers would have been when that first kicked off and still is now. In 5 years it will be something else. It's either adapt or get out.

Card collectors around the country are all currently practising

 

[Iron Clad Lou]

So 8400 boxes produced.

SCC good for about 800?

6800 in the drop? 2 per person/bot

It theoretically should last longer than Brilliance. Maybe 30 seconds was a bit dramatic.

I'll go for 2 mins. Bots probably going to ease up a tad due to higher buy in a tougher selling market (looking at ebay)

 

[DARREN]

I just did another test still no capta

Do not forget all bot orders cancelled LOFL

 

[Iron Clad Lou]

They haven't cancelled a bot order. It's all empty threats

Before the bots caught on, there was heaps of stock returning due to greedy collectors.

Since they are onto cards, not one box has returned to sale after the initial sold out, because the bots look like legit real collectors

 

[DARREN]

as I said did another test order still no capta

 

[Iron Clad Lou]

same.

Maybe it won't happen, but if it does, you'll be fine.

 

[DARREN]

I am fine with them when I do not have to rush but when you are rushing it bloody easy to stuff it up

True. I get the shakes and always stuff it up!

I would be a terrible sportsperson. Too nervous
