@primetimesc2 If we make singles more expensive the companies will make the boxes more expensive. If singles get cheaper the boxes will get more expensive. And we will all still buy cards.
BREAKING: The Cleveland Cavaliers are trading De'Andre Hunter to the Sacramento Kings for Dennis Schroder and Keon Ellis, sources tell ESPN. The three-team deal includes the Chicago Bulls acquiring Kings forward Dario Saric and two future second-round picks.
We’re following up regarding the 2025–26 Topps Chrome Basketball Mega Boxes and the packaging language that referenced “Chase Exclusive Blue X-Fractors.”
We’ve heard feedback from some collectors and, based on that input, have decided to make Blue X-Fractors referenced on the packaging available to collectors. While we do not believe there is any value difference between silver and Blue X-Fractors, we understand some collectors prefer the blue version.
Topps will be printing Blue X-Fractors and offering collectors the ability to exchange silver X-Fractors for Blue X-Fractors on a one-for-one basis.
To exchange your X-Fractors, please visit https://t.co/tua1dbQVnH
Blue X-Fractors will begin shipping by the end of March, and all submissions must be created by June 30th. Please allow 6–8 weeks for processing and fulfillment once submissions are received and approved.
We appreciate the feedback from the collecting community and thank you for your patience as we work to deliver the best possible experience.
🚨Leaked Documents‼️
Internal documents from Topps & Fanatics have leaked, revealing the "Confidential" data behind their hierarchy of breakers & distributors.
These documents expose exactly who is moving the needle for Fanatics, including a 12-month rolling spend for their top partners.
Top spenders include: Blowout Cards: $49.7M 💰 DA Card World: $42.3M 💰
Blez Sports Cards: $17.1M 💰 WeTheHobby: $13.6M 💰 FilthBomb: $12.9M 💰 Backyard Breaks: $9.9M 💰
Besides the money, the most interesting takeaway?
The documents explicitly state that certain breaking operations are being identified for "stronger allocation support" specifically in exchange for breaking product on the Fanatics Live platform.
If you wondered why your favorite breaker suddenly switched apps, the answer is in the paperwork.
The leak also highlights special treatment for high-profile partners like Card Vault.
While the store’s 12-month spend is lower than the giants at $3.4M, the company enjoys significant executive attention, and a special pricing structure.

@DB8119 I see that Ohtani ad several times a day. I can’t even watch most creators anymore because of the Arena Club and the Whatnot sponsorships. It’s corrupting what was once good with the Packman’s of the community.
Anybody who fell for his scheme, I’m sorry, but that’s your fault for associating with a horrible person.
Anybody who continues to associate with a Filtbomb ran organization, I also won’t feel bad for you when history repeats itself. I repeat, judge the character, not the wallet
i’m not very active on here much anymore but the RyansCardsLLC discourse has brought me much joy, hated that guy since I started going hard on selling in 2022 and my opinion has never changed
sometimes you have to judge a person based on their character, and not their wallet 👍!
Meet @RyansCardssLLC, one of the biggest losers in #thehobby. Ryan likes to tweet racist things about minorities, and enjoys using the N word. When Ryan is not deleting racist tweets from his past, he enjoys pretending his prices are lower than anywhere else and playing poker.
