Did you at least get a base Herbert or Burrow? Any Mahomes or Brady parallels?

I have a good buddy who sent some rather expensive baseball cards to a PSA in LA to get his cards graded, encased, etc. Well by their own admission, they've lost the cards and are now ignoring his calls about recouping the money. He's now considering taking them to JP/small claims court in order to recoup the value of the cards...I feel for him b/c it's mid-five figures. :snoop:
Calling is worthless; better to try email. He could try reaching out to Nat Turner directly on IG: Nat Turner (@natsturner_cards) • Instagram photos and videos

He's the guy who spear headed the investment group to buy PSA. I've never messaged him about PSA stuff but in the past, he's responded to messages and he's always active on IG.

No, not that I remember from this morning. I'll post my Mahomes ones from today, but I'm pretty sure they are nothing.

I wanted to try a box or two, but no more. That box could not have been worse.

That's why it's supposed to be a $100-150 box. The current prices are absolute madness.

Damn, that's really what they were a few years ago? Under $300 for those specific type of boxes?

Yes. 2012 Basketball Prizm was $70/box five years ago; 2013 Basketball Prizm was $40. The last year and a half sent prices to the moon.

How ridiculous are these 2020 Panini Contenders OPTIC Football boxes that say release date in April?

As absurd as others?

A six card box? That's fewer cards than National Treasures, Immaculate, Flawless, etc. That's nuts. :picard:

What'd you sign up for?

My bad, I thought I posted a link. I believe it is multiple boxes of these.

2020 Panini Encased Football Checklist, Set Details, Boxes, Date, Reviews


It's a snake draft with 16 people, and each person gets two teams. I have three entries for a total of six teams. The draft starts shortly.

Obviously I have the following:

Chargers
Bengals
Chiefs


What other teams would you have up there, and what team would you have that others might overlook?

Bucs for sure. Probably the Packers and Saints after that.

Prizm is only valued for the Prizms. The autos in that set are really worthless when compared to autos of other sets, FYI. There are exceptions of course, but nobody in the hobby breaks Prizm for the autos

I sent 4 cards to PSA last year right as the pandemic hit. Only one of them got encased. A gem mint Zion Optic Holo.

On the return shipment from PSA back to me, the package was lost. Or stolen. Idk. USPS tracking said “delivered to final agent for delivery” and it never showed up. I live in an apartment and the package wasn’t at my door, mailbox, mailroom, or front office.

I contacted them and since packages are insured from them on return, they sent me a check for roughly 3500 for the 4 cards. No hassle at all.

Sorry to hear about your friend. I agree with Regular P, have him reach out to Nat Turner as last case since PSA being shady af

I got raw-dogged tonight with this snake draft. I had six teams out of 32........didn't get a SINGLE card until the very end, which was a Jordan Love auto. Even the guys who run the breaks were telling me my luck was almost mathematically impossible. I had THREE teams that didn't have a single card...........and, those were the ONLY three teams that didn't get anything.

I'm glad I signed up for all of these a few days ago, as I'm not going to sign up for many more. I'm going to keep looking at singles, but I got fukked bad tonight, and then to get the trash I got earlier was brutal.
