eaglesvikings · 12-19-2012, 11:22 PM

Tried a box and two packs, here are the hits

You probably did about average for the product ... But am I the only one noticing that Lamarcus Aldridge Autos are flooded in every Panini product the last couple years - I like Aldridge, but man his card values are (or will) plummeting for as good a player he is ....

dasiegel · 12-20-2012, 12:43 AM

i loved prizm but ive been skipping a bunch of panini products lately, this just seems too overpriced

Ramonster · 12-20-2012, 12:49 AM

Would you trade or sell the Lamb?

Uhhhhh... Im guessing OP paid around $200 for the 6 packs? This is a prime example of Panini raping the consumer. How much is there in cards, maybe $30? I get companies need to make money but MAN that is hideous. Notice nobody is posting Limited breaks? Ive seen 2 cases opened and the stuff was HORRIBLE. $200-250 sell value from Limited cases that run $1200 wholesale. Panini is flat out killing their customers this year(worse than previous years).

They price it high and consumers keep buying it. They aren't worried if you are trying to flip it, they already have their money. If we would stop buying at the high prices, they might lower it...doubt it though.

Btw, love your ebay link!

Oh I agree, I said he did average "for the Product", not overall - Price-wise yeah he got hurt: This seriously seems like the worst Panini Product ever in terms of value ....

After Prizm and Certified, who still have the money for Limited?

panini is cranking out the products right now, if they didnt have their stupid minimum pricing this product would a. not have started so high & b. drop a lot & drop quickly because this product is really horrible for the money. not as bad as elite black for $250 but nowhere near worth opening if you wanna have a decent chance of getting close to even. plus i hate that it doesnt have gu/ball rcs.

the minumum price is there so shops dont get screwed.. i just refuse to stock much due to that.. its not worth the risk

tpdst2 · 12-20-2012, 03:25 PM

Panini includes way too many second rounders in their products as "hits"... 3 of these 4 autos shown will never see the floor. Tough break.

clipperboy24 · 12-20-2012, 06:18 PM

suprised you didnt even get one RPM Auto Jersey. thats a tough break

I dont think they made them in this product

I ended up paying 40 a pack, I not sure wht the frequent flyer cards are, does that mean they are dunkers, I cant see Blair being a frequent flyer

Tons of D Leaguers. I thought MAYBE Panini would be decent this year with the double dose of rookies but the reality is they have doubled and possibly even triple the amount of garbage.

dreamweaver1984 · 12-20-2012, 07:38 PM

basically they limit the top 15 rookies in each of the 2 classes alot and pour in hundreds of the meh guys.

Sikkcaden · 12-20-2012, 07:43 PM

PM dlvd price on the Orlando Johnson.

PacePackRipper · 12-21-2012, 03:21 PM

You pay the price for uncertainty. You pay the price to open the box.

If you want to pay a "fair" price for each card separately - its called ebay!
