But does the product represent a good candidate to buy-and-hold unopened? Let’s see what recent comp prices for hobby boxes from the last few years can tell us about the potential for 2024.
| Year | Recent Hobby Box Comp Price |
|---|---|
| 2024 | $160-170 |
| 2023 | $130-180 |
| 2022 | $95-180 |
| 2021 | $100-125 |
Recent comps are a bit all over the place for some of these products. Based on that fact and the prices compared to release prices, these don’t appear to be the best candidates to buy-and-hold unopened. You can do worse, but the price ranges should give you pause.
What about in terms of singles? What can a look at recent sales of 2023 Panini Select Baseball singles tell us about the potential for 2024?
A 1/1 Jackson Merrill Black Finite Patch Auto sold for around $1,000. An Elly De La Cruz Cracked Ice Patch Auto /23 sold for $275. A Jackson Holliday Tie Dye Prizm /25 in PSA 10 sold for $250. Prices go down from there.
So, the high end doesn’t appear all that high for these. However, for a lower cost, unlicensed boxes, they do appear to be in line with expectations.
