      Unfortunately, the market determines the prices for these high-end boxes. If nobody touched these at $8k, the price would come down, but fomo takes over, and people throw money away on these overpriced boxes. Thanks to you tubers like Jabs, I can actually see inside some of these high-end boxes.

      Look, these guys who buy into breaks like this enjoy giving their money away.
      As I've said before, I blame the breakers for pushing product like this. They know full well what they're doing and show no compunction while doing it. This is why people continue to leave the hobby, and as a country, the national household debt has recently risen to 17.5 trillion dollars.
      Since the pandemic, every breaker has lost subscribers. Many of which range in the area of 90 percentile. They're gone, folks, and they're not coming back. If you were a business, you'd be out of business. We haven't begun to see the real pain yet, but it's coming.
      Meanwhile, the breakers continue to use a broken and outdated business model.
      Iceberg dead ahead!

    This is some racket topps has going. I remember when they first started with jersey cards. They were rare and valuable. I pulled a Nolan ryan ( valued at $500) and ken griffey jr. ( $350). This was in 1999. After that they started flooding the market with those cards and the value dropped off the table. Ever since then they started getting crazy with the prices of boxes. They priced kids out of the market. I wouldnt pay more than a few hundred for the cards he pulled out of these boxes

    There were some great names in that box, and I love actual on card auto stuff, but the price is crazy. It's an awesome product for breakers to sell, but I mean...if you're hoping for a certain big name auto that badly then you could just take that $8k, spend a little of it to buy the auto, then put the rest in the bank. I'm not one to tell anyone how to spend their money, but that $8k cost way more than my first 2...maybe even 3 cars when I was younger. Good luck if you have that type of disposable income, but I'll be happily watching this one from the sidelines haha.

    If you paid $8k for those boxes you lost a lot of money, the prices for those boxes now are insane, and 9 times out of 10 not worth what you pay for them. It's like playing the scratch off lottery tickets, maybe 1 out of 20 is a winner, and 1 out of 100 is a big winner, if you are really lucky.
    People who pay $8,000 for them are losing 50 to 60 percent of their money, and that is if they can even sell the cards. I would never pay that much for those boxes, because most of them are a flat out rip-off.
    And one last thing, if you pay $4,000 for a box of those cards every single one of them should be a 1/1, this 10 of 15 stuff is highway robbery. If I ever paid $4,000 for 10 cards every one of them better be a 1/1 or someone is in trouble.

    Definitely not worth the money in my opinion, with only 3 "Hits'. But you never can tell.
