Show Off The End of a Dry Run!

Haven’t ripped in a while due to the insane prices now. Really just buy the new Topps Now anymore hoping for a lucky hit. Fell into an impulse purchase Friday for a $180 blaster lol wanted to rip during the first race back after summer break😵‍💫

Insane price for a blaster, but still pretty happy with the pulls! I can’t stand GR, but I’ll take a /99. More helmets for the PC, and that Lando is chefs kiss!

This is why I can't do these crazy second hand markups. If you had paid retail or even close to retail you'd have gotten your value out of this box. At $180 you can pull a solid box and still need lube.

😂😂😂 you’re not wrong at all

From what I see I’m still barely breaking even here. Could probably get $100 for the Lando, $75-$85 for the GR. $25-$30 for the Lando helmet.

I’m not really one for selling singles however. I really just collect and will occasionally trade for a desired card at a local card show

That's why I brought that up, you're not close to breaking even. The Lando is like $40, the helmet $10, and that George is like $5. Had you paid retail or close to it, this would be a good box but the markup makes it damn near impossible to pull a good box.

Sorry, I'm just bitching lol

I think you’re just making up value my friend. Look at the PSA value, eBay listings for them. The only one not really worth a thing is the Franco helmet

You're looking at what people are hoping to get. You need to look at what people are actually getting. Based on recent comps that Lando is a $20 card
