When I renewed my Collectors Club membership with PSA, they sent me a $60 credit with Fanatics Live, and 6 months of $20 Loupe credits (1 per month).

While I like breaks, I wanted this FL credit to count, so I bought in on an $80 baseball repack with 1of1 Cards on FL. So I kicked in an additional $27 i think, to go with the $60 credit, and I won this 2012 Bowman Bryce Harper RC PSA 10, which is now my best Harper rookie card.

Just thought I’d share this Fanatics Live credit strategy!

Both Dana White and Michael Robin will be facing off today during a Fanatics Live Event today at 3pm EST / 12pm PST. They will be opening packs of Topps Chrome live and the audience will judge who pulled the better cards.

Interesting format to do this on - love the way they are incorporating gamification and an event style show on a livestream. You can join them here:

Well I like PSA trying things out and starting to embrace some live op events. But I just don't understand the "bounties" event that Fanatics been doing.

Perhaps they are clear they want to engage a certain cohort, in the case of Fanatics their biggest spenders, but it seems to me that Fanatics Live needs to grow their audience funnel and Bounties on high priced product isn't one way to do it. They should be incentivizing their breakers to bring their communities over to Live where they subsidize the events for all cohorts. Am I missing something?
