 Hi everybody, Joe for Jaspy's casebreaks.com. We knocked out that filler that knocks out three breaks. So first we're gonna do chronicles and then if you're watching live, the next two videos will be those optic contenders optic basketball breaks. But this is 2020, 2021 Panini Chronicles basketball six box pick your team number six. Second half of the case that we popped open last night. There you go. So on December 2nd, thank you very much everybody for spending a bit of your Thursday with us. So if you see a little rooftop next to your name, that means you won those spots. In fact, for example, for Patrick, he won a spot into the filler to win a spot. So nice little parley there. And I think Serenity ended up with last spot mojo with Dallas. So thanks everybody, appreciate it. No matter how you got in, whether you bought spots or you bought fillers to get into the fillers, to get into the spots, no matter how you did it, I appreciate it. All right, now remember last night, we marked these with six. So we know they're all from the same case. And away we go, good luck. Joe Christian talking a little fanatics here. Yeah, that seems to be, I can't really say for sure. Obviously, I don't know either way, but it seems to be that the speculation is that once fanatics, once push comes to shove, fanatics will end up attempting to buy some of the major manufacturers and then let them operate the way they normally would, is the hope, I think. But everything's good now, Rex. Rex was having some buffering issues, but everything seems to be good now. All right, there's Emmanuel Quickly, 85 out of 149, LeBron, and CJ Elby, 10 out of 99, Limited Jersey and Autograph for Portland. That's gonna go to Roy, won that spot. Maybe you need to go to Roy, won that spot. Maybe YouTube hiccuped or something like that, or maybe our internet hiccuped. There's Chris Middleton to 149, there it goes this way, 86 out of 149. Middleton is gonna go to Sean Maddock in Milwaukee. James Wiseman to 49, nice James Wiseman for the Warriors, that'll be for Jared. And we've got a Monty Morris Autograph, Rookies and Stars Airborne Auto for Denver, that'll be for Ryan Kasin and Lamello Ball for Kevin and Charlotte. Why won't, Joe P, why wouldn't you want fanatics to do that? Otherwise, Tops and Panini don't have any license, any players union licensing, they're essentially a bit neutered, really be able to do anything. 47 out of 149, Chris Paul. Joe, you know what their plans are for the hobby? Michael Hughes, Phoenix Suns, and we've got a nice XR Lamello Ball. We've got more Lamello, all these add up, Kevin. And there's an Anthony Edwards. But how, I mean, what do you think fanatics is gonna do that's gonna hurt the hobby? I mean, I think people just say that cause they're just anti-change and they're just like, all change is bad. The hobby especially has been traditionally like that. I mean, people thought Panini getting into the business was bad. I haven't discussed this in depth with Mike Jaspis and the boss man, Nick's dad, here. But he has a couple friends that are kind of high up in fanatics that he's been friends with over the decades that's been in the industry. And from the conversations they've had, from the conversations they've had, overall, Mike walked away feeling good about it. And he's got more experience in the hobby than any of us. I mean, there are gonna be changes in that and we just don't know what's gonna happen there. But there's Sadiq Bay to 49, there's Devin Vassel to 99, RJ Hampton, there's Precious Achua to 149, and Cassius Winston. No, it's not, but that's been what Tops and Panini have been trying to do for ages. It's really gonna hurt the distributors more than the consumers, I think, is my guess. I mean, hopefully they can still get, I mean, I feel bad for the distributors because I think they're gonna be the ones that are kind of pushed out. But they're gonna respect the consumer level hobby shop, 31 out of 149, John Wall. But I think as Joe Christian was saying, right, companies buy companies all the time. As long as they're making money, yeah, they don't want to disrupt. And they don't want to disrupt what's been a bit of a golden goose, you know what I mean? There's Lamello Ball, Charlotte, 67 out of 99, James Weisman, and Isaiah Thomas, 21 out of 199. I think that's gonna be a big part of it, but I think Joe is right. So I think, and I don't know anything exactly, so this is not on the record or anything like that, but yes, they want to improve the retail buying experience, Joe P. I think that's what you're reading. They want to improve that retail buying experience. But hobby shops and the large scale breakers are still gonna be a big part of their plans. But selling retail, like Rex was talking about buying Chronicles boxes at Walmart or whatever, that's been a mess over the years. You know, like being able to sell it and the secondary market going unchecked and all that sort of stuff, it's been a mess. I think they're trying to fix that and improve that retail experience. And a lot of it is gonna be some like direct stuff to straight to the customer, which Panini has already started doing with first off the line stuff. There's a Najee Marshall, but I mean, the hobby shop and especially large scale breakers now, I think are gonna be still an important part of their plans. There's another Lamello ball. At least that's the buzz I'm hearing. And a lot of conversations with fanatics as well is the buzz, nothing official. There's Jonas Fallon, June is 67 out of 99. Breakers maybe not the local car shop will be fine. There's OB Topp into 149. Local car shops who are smart, I think would be fine. And there's Damian Lillard. All right, three boxes to go. Well, Joe P, we actually run a local car shop here. So the sky's not falling for us. Let's put it that way. We're in this day to day, man. Got Dave Cohen's. Old Celtic, 43 out of 99. More Lamello ball, all these add up, Kevin. And we've got an Anthony Edwards, Threads Anthony Edwards. Well, people would argue that the average Joe can't afford to buy stuff in the hobby now. So how is that gonna change? I don't think it's gonna change too much. I mean, the way things happen on the, I think for you and me, for the breakers or the shop to the consumer, I don't think a lot is gonna change. I think a lot of stuff behind the scenes will be different. There's Emmanuel Quickly. I'm sure pricing on some stuff will inevitably change, but prices go up all the time. I mean, people said it was crazy when they looked at the prices for 18, 19 prison basketball. And then people said when it, when the price went up again in 1920, prison basketball, people said that was insane, you know, but the hobby has been able to absorb that. And then when, I mean, it's economics, you know, if the price gets too high and people stop buying, guess what? Prices will go down. There's a James Ramsey for the Kings. Do you think it'll be 10 times worse than they take over? 10 times is a lot. I don't think so. I think that's wrong. Kings, that's for Ryan Harreld. But hey, if it does get 10 times worse and it works, then they'll be making a lot of profit. If it doesn't work, guess what? The lower prices. That's economics. I'm not super concerned about that. I mean, last I checked, they're a for-profit business. And once they're starting to lose profits, they'll adjust what they need to adjust to make profits again. If any of these are 149. Yeah, but I mean, listen, even without knowing what we know from fanatics, I'm just, that's just so like illogical, Joe P. Why would they just arbitrarily raise prices 10 times, right? To lose, to ruin the value of secondary market stuff, which they know is important, and lose the hobby, like how does that make sense? Because if people aren't buying at that price point, they're shooting themselves in the foot. The fanatics isn't just, you know, fanatics isn't like, they're not sitting here going, boy, how do we kill this golden goose? Like logically, even if we don't know it, logically just doesn't make sense. They're gonna spend all these millions of dollars in licensing for trading cards and then just blow it. You know, it's not like some mom and pop, like stumbling into the license for the NFL, you know, or privately held companies or anything like that. There's Isaac Acour of 54 out of 99. Trying to corner the market is bad for the hobby, is it though? People said the same thing when Panini was gobbling up licenses and year over year, I think for a lot of the hobby, it's been good business. There's Trey Jones, 38 out of 41. But how can you make it, they wanna make it a trillion dollar industry, but how do you make that trillion dollar industry if you're making it difficult for people to buy? People don't buy, they're not gonna make it a trillion dollar industry. So if the prices are too high to make it a trillion dollar industry, wouldn't it make sense for them to make prices more competitive, to make it a trillion dollar industry? 38 out of 10, Tayshon Alexander. It'll be a rich man's hobby, but people will say that now, Joe. So what's it gonna be? How does that change anything? People say it's a rich man's hobby now. People talk about it, I wish it was the 90s. You know, so I don't know, that argument doesn't really work. It's already not a hobby for anyone else. That's what, how is it gonna change with fanatics? It's not gonna get any worse. So, I mean, with that argument, it doesn't really make sense, because that's what people are saying already right now. Anthony Edwards, hometown heroes, here's James Harden Silver, and there's Diane Williamson to 149. I don't know, I mean, it's hard to have it really both ways, to have a hobby that could be for everybody, you know, and still try to get everybody involved, but still have it be valuable. It's gonna be a tough challenge for sure. My understanding is that they wanna make the retail, the Walmart, Target, retail side of things, improve that a lot more greatly. And then that will give people better exposure to the hobby, and then lead them towards stuff like higher end stuff, hobby boxes, and stuff like that. I was like wondering why, that's a typo, guys. Don't freak out. It's James Harden. There's Kendrick Nunn. Heat Edition has not really played done much for the Lakers yet. Still been injured, Jordan Ashton. I mean, listen, Joe P, I understand what you're saying, but at the end of the day, you know, to put it bluntly, prices have been going up already and people have still purchased, you know what I mean? Like so it's the market can, for now, the market can sustain it, you know what I mean? There's Anthony Edwards, C1K with the Timberwolves, we'll get all those Anthony Edwards' izz, izz, izz. So like, it's difficult for me to logically go down the road of it's gonna be 10 times worse with fanatics. I mean, for most average Joe's already, they're already saying it's a rich man's hobby I've been priced out, you know? Which is something that we hear often. It's something that we hear often. So it's already not good for most people, but I think they're gonna make at least an effort to figure that out. I mean, if you take the global population, there's only still a small percentage of the global population that actually knows that this stuff exists, you know what I mean? So I don't know, maybe that broader exposure will be better. There's Aaron Naismith, 99, both nags, but I feel like, I don't know, I feel like Joe, people would still argue that, you know, that the smaller middle class is already priced out of the hobby. For the magic that's Karim Mané, 43 out of 99, hometown heroes for the Orlando Magic, that'll be for Diego. There's a LeBron Luminance to 149. Devin Booker, Tyrese. And we're gonna close out with, gonna close out with Jay Sean Tate to 149. And there you go, ladies and gentlemen. Listen, at the end of the day, you know, if I think we're, Jaspie's as us, we can only really speak for ourselves. We feel pretty bullish about the hobby, you know? And I think we're looking forward to seeing how all the changes work out for the hobby. So we're gonna ride with it and roll with it and hopefully you'll support us through any changes that happens in the hobby and elsewhere in life. So thanks for breaking with us.
