Im not so sure Im going to pull any this time, there are no inserts out that I care about besides the Stanton sig and I don't think its in there. New FIN2 aren't out yet, UC is way oversold (except the 3 SR which you won't get). But I am curious myself.

Just a public service announcement: I opened the Diamond VIP packs and got the new diamond Bowmans (yay), a bunch of Hanley Ramirez SNB and a Cano Silver Star. There seems to be nothing else in there, which means you should expect a similar return in the Black VIP packs. Recommendation - Avoid.

I assume that the super rare Upper Class are not in the packs? |

sad to see actually. i still remember the first "black" pack (not necessarily VIP) back in early May and these were a gold mine of the current inserts. a lot of fun to crack and i was more than willing to spend 10k (i think that was the cost at the time) on a single card.
i didnt touch it with any of my free coins yesterday (based on this feedback, so thank you everyone) and still see that its not selling well at all. i guarantee you that if they inserted some of the stantons in there, they would fly off the shelf. at the same time, making stanton a 200 card is cool and all for the "chase" but i dont see how it benefits them from a business standpoint. wouldn't you want to make it more like 500 so you could spread it through multiple packs and have 1000s more people take a chance at them?

I couldn't agree more! This is the third straight sig that they did not put into the Black VIP packs at all, and I still dont get why they think we should spend 5000 coins per pack on these when they pretty much just contain 1 gold card? The gold VIP packs are 1500 coins. My reward as a black VIP is that I get to spend 3 times as much? I am curious to know if the packs have changed since yesterday, someone is buying them. I would like to get the last two FIN inserts, I wonder if they at least put those in there?

Well, I went back for more, because I wanted the Brett TBT card. They could at least put that in there, right? Wrong. 15 more packs, 13 golds and 2 FC. I then blew 150k on hi-five packs to get the stupid TBT Brett. Not liking Bunt much righr now.

And, they are still there, day 3 now. I want the new GM card, but I don't dare buy any of these to try for it. If anyone here is brave enough, please let me know what's in them now.
