    @enonymousNY Před 5 měsíci +6

    You’d need to average around $350 a card to break even. That’s tough. Especially with how many products a majority of these guys sign for each year. Love the product but at the price point it’s a no from me, dawg.

    How did i miss this break on ur stream??? It was mostly wen i left... Great case... Love the card designs... Nothing to over the top ( u know with a bunch of colors and glitter everywhere... And they weren't underwhelming either... I find them to be right in the middle... Very elegant... Geat product 👍👍👍

    • @enonymousNY
      @enonymousNY Před 5 měsíci

      My guess is in the future cut autos will probably just be sticker autos. Pretty sure they send the superstars of today a box of stickers to sign and return each year for the product and then don’t end up using them all and just stock up on sticker signatures. Then when they’re gone they’ll be able to just use them as “cuts” at a premium.

    I hate to say this, but Panini just does so much better with high end products. These cards just don't feel nearly as collectible as a Flawless or National Treasures.

    • @AlanForest

      Not at all. National treasures have sticker autos. I think both also will use relics that aren't even player worn. At least diamond icons only have top rookies, vets and HOFers. All player worn relics. You'll definitely get more valuable from this than panini high end products.

    Way too many high end products. Soon it will end. People will smarten up with losing money on 90 + percent of boxes. Wait for it to drop. $ 500 and up boxes should be $200 or less. Doing my sets after being out a few months like 2023 Topps blaster $15 or lower etc.
