Typical Reddit: Customer complains that we won't honor the price of a failed order, but neglects to mention a few details: 1. Their order was canceled immediately because they ordered with Amex, which we CLEARLY state that we do not take at checkout. 2. We emailed within 60 seconds of the order being placed along with another email from our 3rd party system, but they didn't email us back for 7 DAYS! 3. We honor the prices within 48 HOURS of an order being placed (not including drops) to prevent customers from freeriding our auto-cancellation system. reddit.com/r/magicTCG/com…

@JEASportsCards @WaxMetrix You're likely right, thanks for the feedback!

@ShippingShield @WaxMetrix Sell sell sell!!! Absolutely zero scarcity big picture, take the money and run

With all the recent buzz around the 2023 Topps Series 1 Ohtani All Aces, I’m seeing more people jumping back into wax to try and track one down. So I wanted to add a little context that might help. All Aces debuted in 2023 with a print run of ~77,350 per card. For comparison, that’s the same print run as the 1988 Topps inserts in that set. If you ripped that product, I know you remember…those things were like cockroaches. They were everywhere. Though the All Aces benefitted from a smaller checklist (25 cards vs 100), and that included Ohtani, the per card print run was nearly identical. In Series 2, Topps scaled things back a bit. All Aces dropped to ~20,200 per card across another 25-card checklist, but no Ohtani. And 2023 Update remained steady with another 25-card checklist, no Ohtani, and print runs of ~20,200 ea. Then things changed. All Aces sat out 2024 but came back in 2025 Series 1 with a vengeance. The design had been enhanced on a black textured stock and actually short printed this time around. Print run dropped to ~360 per card. Raw Ohtani copies of this set currently sell for about $2,200. In 2025 Series 2, Topps swapped in All Kings and tightened things even further to ~240 per card print runs. Ohtani shows up again, this time in a batting pose. You might think with 33% lower print run and a bat instead of a ball, that the value might be a bit higher on these. And you'd be right. Last raw sale around $8,100, PSA 10s going for $19K. 2025 Update skipped both sets, but 2026 Series 1 brought them back and Ohtani anchors them both. The All Kings (batting pose- print run ~230 ea) still carries the most value at around $6,100 vs roughly $4,500 for All Aces, print run ~300 copies ea. With all that in mind, it’s easy to see why the 2023 All Aces has taken off. The 2025–2026 Aces/Kings have priced a lot of people out, and the 2023 version is close enough visually to pull people back in, even if it’s a very different card in hand. That 2023 Ohtani is now pushing ~$300 raw and has cleared $1K in a PSA 10. As a result, 2023 wax has gotten hotter than it’s been in a long time and is starting to dry up. So I wanted to look at how the main formats stack up if you’re chasing: Secondary market pricing (rough ranges): • Hobby: $150 • Jumbo: $250 • Blaster: $25 • Hanger: $19 $ per All Aces (2023 Series 1): 1) Blasters: $57.14 - 1 per 16 packs (~2.3 boxes) 2) Hangers: $76 - 1 per 4 boxes 3) Jumbo: $100 - 1 per 4 packs (~2.5 per box) 4) Hobby: $100 - 1 per 16 packs (~1.5 per box) Blasters come out as the cheapest path to an All Aces…on paper. But they’re brutal for just about everything else. No real shot at autos or relics, and virtually no upside beyond the chase itself. Hangers are a better middle ground. Still not good odds on hits, but at least you’re not completely drawing dead. They just can't compete with Hobby or Jumbo in that regard. If you actually want a shot at everything in the product while chasing, Jumbo is the play and it's not even close. Slightly worse on $/Aces, but it’s the most efficient format for every other desirable hit across the board. And you'll still pull 2.5 All Aces per box. And oddly enough, while digging around, the best current Jumbo price I found was sitting on Amazon at $250. Good luck everyone! #thehobby #SlabSquatchAnalytics #OhtaniAllAces

@WaxMetrix Thanks! The impossible prediction of the ceiling is always the million dollar question. Locking in profits though is always a win 😀

@ShippingShield I'd sell all but one or two. Keep a minimal amount so you still have some exposure, but bank some nice profits. Hard to expect much more than a come-up like that.

@baseball_cards Thanks! It's really my only spec that has ever blown up, in a good way 😁

@ShippingShield Nice seven grand you've got there!

Sometimes the demand is so large, the supply can’t keep up even when it exceeds all other reason. Maybe the Shohei Ohtani All Aces PSA 10 is similar to the Pikachu felt hat card. For those unfamiliar, that Pikachu card has a PSA 10 population of over 40,000 and is still selling consistently for over $2,000. Maybe this is what happens when a card is really cool and we add the good folks from Japan (122M and counting) to the USA population (340M+) in the chase. I’m not suggesting it’s a bubble. Or that it’s not a bubble. I’m just saying it’s not the first time a cool card has defied a large population to continue to rise. I’m pretty pumped that I got my single copy graded years ago. And it came back a 10! Do you have one?

@SaffronOlive Saffron, I think you're forgetting to think of the shareholders here...

Stuff like this drives me crazy. No more free card for buying the 45 or 90 pack bundle on Arena. Wizards confirmed it's not a bug and its tied to them removing prerelease promos from paper. Pretty sure this means there's no reason to buy the big bundles anymore.
