Yup - the Lebrons have sold for $1,500ish I think. And those are just the base cards.

Great break. Any chance the Pippen is for trade?

they do look nice

But..and i dont mean this in a absolute negative way, I fail to see the drawing power for the price point, not to mention the ROI to a flipper (which Im not) . To me as a hobbyist and collector, I just cannot justify footing that bill with out the possible return of a cut of an deceased old timer, a jordan or bron auto.

Diamonds may be a girls best friend but i see no enhancement to a trading card!

Is it just me, or does Kyrie Irving look like a grizzled 40-year old veteran there? Wow.

I guess that's a pretty good break by the looks of it, but echoing what oasis said, the product really doesn't justify the price point for me. Especially when you get a smudged auto as one of the hits (Mutumbo).

Wow that's one of the better/ overall cases I've seen of flawless bkb. Great hits on the Drummond, lillard, Davis, and Kyrie. Thanks for the show and tell mark!

Maybe, but he's no Greg Oden in that department.

I didn't see it either.

But a lot of deep pocketed hobbyists do see it. While a case breaker can get a great ROI in this product or a big steaming goose egg of a break it is the patient man who will clean up on this. The price per pack/briefcase has already gone up $250-400. In a couple of years you will have doubled or better your ROI on unopened packs. Prices on the diamond base cards have jumped up a lot. A Lillard base just went for $3300 and a Kyrie base with emerald /5 went for just under that. a quick ebay search shows 27 base cards either /20 /5 or /1 have sold for over $1000 with over a 100 other cards selling for over $1000 as well. 200+ more cards selling between $450 and $800.

You get 10 cards a pack 1 being a base. like any product there is a huge risk but it has a lot of basketball hobbyists talking. Exquisite has been the BB standard with 03/04 being the holy grail of high end. As an example to non basket ball collectors a Lebron RC from it /99 can sell anywhere from 15,000 and up. Yes 15K and I emphasize the UP. Am I saying Flawless will replace Exquisite? no. But I am saying that without its NBA license Exquisite loses some of its luster and given time and if Panini stays to the very limited model of production in Flawless, in a couple of years you just may see it being talked about as the new holy grail.
