Just saw some pre-sell prices. Looks like nearly a 100% increase on last year's release. I like the product but this is annoying. I'd be ok if it's just Zion mania and the hobby boxes drop back to around $220 ( their prices for last year's release)next year but that's not what's going to happen.
If this trend continues I won't be busting much basketball wax. I busted 7 Prizm retail boxes last year ($100 - $110 each) 1 box of FB($180) and a dozen blasters ( $35-$40 each). I only busted one hobby box of Optic ($220) but that's because it was hard to find and 2 retail boxes ($95 each).
No Prizm so far this season.
Apologies for the doom but I was looking forward to Optic at the end of the month but $425 for a hobby box sucks.
These increases can't be sustainable long term, surely.
