How much was housing rent ten years ago? You jimmies have micro focus in a macro economy. Every consumer product is inflated, hows your grocery bill compred to ten years ago. We are getting pillaged from every direction
@@ZK2195 you can definitely blame the breakers. If they weren't gobbling up all the available product, people wouldn't be forced to go to them to get cards. It's like saying you can't blame scalpers. Yes, yes I can. But agreed, both are to blame.
You could've bought a Mickey mantle instead, and I will keep saying it over and over new cards are worthless, while Mickey goes up every year no matter what
No one cares we are here to watch new cards, and the only mantle you are going to get for cheap is a grade 2 and it won't be going up in price anytime soon.
The craziest thing about Panini prices this year is that even if you get a decent numbered Wemby and an okay vet auto, you still don't get your money back. You basically need a Wemby /50 or less and a Steph/Lebron/etc to /10 and a good vet auto to just break even. The pricing is just absolutely insane.
my theory is the rise of gambling in mainstream culture, folks dont even care about the value of the cards, but just want to degen and rip packs for the squeeze
Because people keep buying which is crazy. It's just socially acceptable gambling and I thank them for doing it and selling the singles so cheap online
Ouch… sorry RGL. That box was very much uneventful for you for the sake of content for us. Thank you. We appreciate you and thanks for taking one for the team.
They're basically stealing peoples money if the mems aren't game-used. "Not from any specific game or event" gets them OFF the Hook - & I call BS! A player could put on a Jersey for 5 mins at some "random" event & that counts?!?!
the scary thing about NT is the fact RGL box was actually pretty solid from what I've seen ripped so far. and its was only slightly better than dog water.
This is 100% the breakers fault. 3K with numbered cards still worth like 5-10 bucks? Never happen if collectors had to pay for the box and sell what they get. Also... worst year to rip NT... nuts you chose this year to pull the trigger. 😅
I only buy older cards. All of these new releases are insane. It’s all manufactured scarcity. Even 1 of 1’s come in 5 different color parallels and another 5 different variations. Not worth the cost at all.
I used to collect cards I still have a full binder of cards from the 80’s/90’s. panini and topps ruined it selling packs with a 1000th of a jersey and boxes for a thousand bucks. That’s not what cars collecting is supposed to be. It’s buying a few packs for a couple bucks and collecting the guys you know. Now it’s ripping 100 packs for a card you won’t get in hopes of sending it to psa hoping for a 10 to sell it to some sucker for 100x’s its value 😂
It’s the promotion of these boxes that make the prices go up ! It’s just like the promotion of PSA over Beckett & SGC ! All of them have individuals doing the grading , but it’s like PSA doesn’t make mistakes.
This guy looks like if King Kong Bundy had sex with John Goodman and they had a baby it would be this guy. And i love those two guys. So i see this guy as a absolute win.
Last Comps I saw on the Grady Dick Card #'d to 99 was $51 with 9 hours left. Not sure where the $150-300 range comes from but either way, for the cost of this product that's a hard gamble for 10 cards
Paying this much for relics that aren't even player worn is CRAZY!! I don't know how the hobby has allowed it to get this bad. People are paying 3k for a printing plate and relics that were pulled out of the team shop and slapped into cards.
Why would you buy national treasures basketball. They don’t have the auto rights to any of the major rookies. Nothing in any of those boxes is going to payoff 3k
Yep on whatnot I was watching when It happened. They were doing a 40 box break. Guy hit spurs on 1st team selected. I think they probably lost 25k on the break because the spurs were 1st off the board
How is it an RPA without having a signature? How the hell is it valued at $100-$300 without the auto? Come on panini. $30k for this box makes me want to jump through the screen and shake you until you wake up haha. Wemby doesn’t have an auto in here yet it’s $30k? This is crazy.
To each their own, I guess it depends on if your doing it for fun and for collecting purposes that's fine, if your doing it to make money then you shouldn't be doing it.
so outrageous prices for low level rookies. hit a top 30-40 player all time in AI and it's only $250. And hit a 2 time all-star (and 2 time slam dunk champ) in Lavine, and it's only a $10 card. It really shows how none of this stuff is going to hold value since even if they become all time greats, the cards aren't worth all that much, and even if they hit all star games they'll end up in a $5 box at a card show in 6 months
My thing is this, there are alot of products I could buy cheaper than NT that actually have game worn or player worn patches so why th dosnt NT seem to care about this??
That Dick RPA is not an RPA. The 'A' stands for auto, and with no auto, it's clearly just an RP. Not sure why they did this. They should've created a separate subset for those called "RP" or something. With that said, not a bad box. I have a feeling if you opened 2-3 of these, you'd have gotten a great ROI.
“Attention to detail” they realized just print different color variations and charge way too much and people will buy it. Inserts from the 90’s were always “attention to detail” sensitive
Rookie patch auto, with no auto…..
Panini never ceases to amaze me.
not even player and/or match worn
stuff was 400$ 10 years ago.. Ppl need to stop paying these outrageous prices, it makes 0 sense.
The same people who buy these are the ones complaining about the cost of living.
How much was housing rent ten years ago? You jimmies have micro focus in a macro economy. Every consumer product is inflated, hows your grocery bill compred to ten years ago. We are getting pillaged from every direction
Breakers (and people that use them) pretty much ruined the hobby for anyone not lottery ticket chasing.
@@FacundoCampazzo123and people still buy them. Can’t blame the breakers. Stop buying these overpriced breaks and boxes and maybe it will change
@@ZK2195 you can definitely blame the breakers. If they weren't gobbling up all the available product, people wouldn't be forced to go to them to get cards. It's like saying you can't blame scalpers. Yes, yes I can. But agreed, both are to blame.
Man, that was a roller coaster that just never went up. Thanks for taking one for the team in the name of content.
They call that the "Log-ride". 😂
You could've bought a Mickey mantle instead, and I will keep saying it over and over new cards are worthless, while Mickey goes up every year no matter what
Sadly new cards, or 99%, are worthless. Fun for a PC collector but otherwise this hobby has become about breaking and chasing.
Yeah 1/1 Patrick Mahomes rookie auto is definitely worthless bro
Manufactured scarcity.
So true. You are wise.
No one cares we are here to watch new cards, and the only mantle you are going to get for cheap is a grade 2 and it won't be going up in price anytime soon.
This is how I feel after opening most my card/packs. I keep telling myself all I want is to hit that one card.
I just don’t get sealed wax prices especially when the top guys aren’t even signing. Singles have gone down dramatically but sealed wax still is up
The craziest thing about Panini prices this year is that even if you get a decent numbered Wemby and an okay vet auto, you still don't get your money back.

The prices are high bc of breaking period no breaking woukd = cheap boxes. Nobody could afford to just open these boxes
And with a high end product like this, everything should be game worn.
Ouch… sorry RGL. That box was very much uneventful for you for the sake of content for us. Thank you. We appreciate you and thanks for taking one for the team.
I appreciate seeing boxes that i couldn't justify buying myself. I do enjoy your channel!
Who ever pays that much for sports cards deserves to lose
Poor RGL, you can see the nerves on his face throughout the video. So ridiculous patches aren't game-worn in a product like this.
They're basically stealing peoples money if the mems aren't game-used.
"Not from any specific game or event" gets them OFF the Hook - & I call BS!
A player could put on a Jersey for 5 mins at some "random" event & that counts?!?!
@@HumanCarBombmy favorite is when a mem is “player-worn” and the player actually wore 50 jerseys at one time then took them off.
😂 lmafo when you said maybe the "Wong rookie" i spat out my drink
You had the stones to do it. Respect!
the scary thing about NT is the fact RGL box was actually pretty solid from what I've seen ripped so far. and its was only slightly better than dog water.
I didn't have to read the title or watch a second of it to know this was an impending train wreck - just the thumbnail...

Ouch!!! For the price, that was a near catastrophe!!!
Great review RGL,I loveeee the Always Sunny Clips lmao
It could be anything, it could even be a boat! But it wasn't a boat, it was Leonard Miller.
Crazy how these are so expensive. No Wemby or miller autos and fake patches not worn or touched by the respective player.
Groceries and rent prices are just as bad
RGL, you are still blessed with being able to buy these boxes. Better luck next time, bro 💪- video entertaining and funny 100K 2025
Thanks for the video, sorry on the loss
thanks for taking one for the team lol
I'm not even a basketball fan but had to watch. Panini put you right in the prison position. Totally did you dirty style.
No lube
Ouch! Thanks for taking one for the team!
Over a grand back isn't a complete dusting in this product.
I used to collect cards I still have a full binder of cards from the 80’s/90’s. panini and topps ruined it selling packs with a 1000th of a jersey and boxes for a thousand bucks. That’s not what cars collecting is supposed to be. It’s buying a few packs for a couple bucks and collecting the guys you know. Now it’s ripping 100 packs for a card you won’t get in hopes of sending it to psa hoping for a 10 to sell it to some sucker for 100x’s its value 😂
You pulled a bigger Zach Levine out off WWE lol
It’s the promotion of these boxes that make the prices go up ! It’s just like the promotion of PSA over Beckett & SGC ! All of them have individuals doing the grading , but it’s like PSA doesn’t make mistakes.
Those solid color patches make me sad.
This box is what terrifies me about ever thinking about risking buying one
Prices will never go down, if people continue to buy this trash at insane prices..
The Kevin Durant clip, lively timed it right 👨🍳
This guy looks like if King Kong Bundy had sex with John Goodman and they had a baby it would be this guy.
And i love those two guys. So i see this guy as a absolute win.
Congrats on the milestone. Enjoy your channel. I could never buy stuff like this.
"Ages 9+"
Don't think I ever saw that before on cards
A very Deja vu box after watching Hitman Rips open his box
That Iverson is sick
Last Comps I saw on the Grady Dick Card #'d to 99 was $51 with 9 hours left. Not sure where the $150-300 range comes from but either way, for the cost of this product that's a hard gamble for 10 cards
That AI auto looks like he fell off the chair, and marker flew out of his hand and landed on the card sideways.
My favorite cards to open was the Topps finest from when it first came out! A stunning card back then.
Knew it was going to go poorly when the 1/1 printing plate to open was met with 👎
That Ai is gorgeous and and the answer has been my favorite player since I was a kid
Baffled with some of the numbering placements. So many clean spots they could put them but nope...let's put it in the picture! lol
Not holding Grady in my hand alittle to long,lol
I wanted you to hit a big card so badly! The next one will be amazing!
People talk about Topps.....Panini is only in existence because it has the NFL and NBA licenses, their products overall are a complete waste of money.
Paying this much for relics that aren't even player worn is CRAZY!! I don't know how the hobby has allowed it to get this bad. People are paying 3k for a printing plate and relics that were pulled out of the team shop and slapped into cards.
Crazy product. I couldnt do it but enjoy watching it lol
Are the RPAs game used ? Maybe at least player worn?
This box is like a new car driving off the lot instantly worth less
So it was 10% back as opposed to the WWE which you thought was 50% floor back?
Why would you buy national treasures basketball. They don’t have the auto rights to any of the major rookies. Nothing in any of those boxes is going to payoff 3k
You'd be better off buying scratch off lottery tickets.
Panini expect the RPA value to remain the same without the auto 😂
Imagine if it was Colossal and it was Gradey Dick LMAO
Makes you wonder what the biggest loss has been on a box.
The Wemby Logoman was pulled, was on IF Sports yesterday
And it looks like sht
If I was going to spend that much money, I’d buy a Flawless box. At least I’d be getting game used relics.
Wemby logo man was hit the other day on whatnot
I would love the opportunity to purchase that Iverson from you !
Like this video bro just opened natty to the dome
Bro. It can’t be an RPA with out an auto. Just a rookie patch.
Without breakers panini and fanatics craters. More power than they realize, need to send a message. But….nobody will.
Bro i love the Pacers is that Ben Sheppard card for sale?!! Also for some reason i just noticed i was unsubscribed i fixed that now though!
Crazy how Topps holiday has game worn patches of the top mlb players and they are worth next to nothing.
$250-300 would be a reasonable price for this product.
Sorry for your loss
Seriously people who open boxes on UA-cam love to hear themselves talk. Almost 7 mins in and just now opening the box
Brutal! What a big FU from Panini to have non-auto “auto” cards in an “Premium” set 😂😅
Wemby logo was pulled all ready
Yep on whatnot I was watching when It happened. They were doing a 40 box break. Guy hit spurs on 1st team selected. I think they probably lost 25k on the break because the spurs were 1st off the board
I don’t know how they are getting away with such insane prices for such nothing cards. It’s just abusive.
Love the AI just not in a 3k box.
damn, ai on card auto.. that’s a nice hit. ai collector here and i wish i have that card to add on my collection..
You got the shaft with Wong
Yikes God Speed Brother
300$ per card. Geez Louize!!!!
What up RGL
iif I was risking it all, I think I would go for an NFL box, thanks for opening it though!
How is it an RPA without having a signature? How the hell is it valued at $100-$300 without the auto? Come on panini. $30k for this box makes me want to jump through the screen and shake you until you wake up haha. Wemby doesn’t have an auto in here yet it’s $30k? This is crazy.
Highway Robbery! Sure - some boxes will be HOT, but a "Majority" of the boxes are just like this.....sorry, RGL!!!
International box drops tomorrow doesnt it?
It upsets me that the patches aren't game used. For the price you pay, WTH????? HIGHWAY ROBBERY!!!!
To each their own, I guess it depends on if your doing it for fun and for collecting purposes that's fine, if your doing it to make money then you shouldn't be doing it.
so outrageous prices for low level rookies. hit a top 30-40 player all time in AI and it's only $250. And hit a 2 time all-star (and 2 time slam dunk champ) in Lavine, and it's only a $10 card. It really shows how none of this stuff is going to hold value since even if they become all time greats, the cards aren't worth all that much, and even if they hit all star games they'll end up in a $5 box at a card show in 6 months
Definitely not the worst decision that you've ever made RGL. You still have all of those Zions, right?
Just hold em for 100 years and you might make back half of that.
They should be called RPN/As.
Thank you for your sacrifice 💔
Dude spent 3k for Wong and Dick
My thing is this, there are alot of products I could buy cheaper than NT that actually have game worn or player worn patches so why th dosnt NT seem to care about this??
because the money... panini makes more money by having junk patches
That Dick RPA is not an RPA. The 'A' stands for auto, and with no auto, it's clearly just an RP. Not sure why they did this. They should've created a separate subset for those called "RP" or something. With that said, not a bad box. I have a feeling if you opened 2-3 of these, you'd have gotten a great ROI.
2 or 3 would have cost him 6 or 9 grand. Come on man they are 3 grand a piece for 10 lousy cards
No pain no gain.
“Attention to detail” they realized just print different color variations and charge way too much and people will buy it. Inserts from the 90’s were always “attention to detail” sensitive
Its not an RPA if it has no autograph. Its a Grady Jersey card. Thats it. Nothing more.
Thank you
You got beat worse than the Vikings yesterday.
International comes out and we will hear the well I seen a few of these open and it's might just pay
Better than a lot of boxes
Wait this is a box one or us should have got, something got messed up lol
