Just got an email these are going on Presale for MC Members tomorrow- who's buying?
We still thinking they're the $25/packs with an auto/parallel?

I’ll pick 3 up, as I usually buy several of these. Looks like 1 auto/box still from the side of the box pictured.

Curious as to why only three. That seems way low for a product that in past years stopped numbering the base autographs and seemingly had a pretty large print run (at least for online).

Was wondering the same, I think they may have some internal guidelines based on price, assuming these are ~$25 (seems like under $100 is 3; $100-? is 2; and Brooklyn Collection + is 1[or was 1 before 2019])
Agreed. You could typically buy 20 boxes pretty easily.
I remember buying 2017 on Black Friday for like $10-15/box

Where to get boxes in 2020-
Retail- 0
Topps online-0 think there was Heritage & A&G only left
My LCS- 0, shut down.
We buy what's available. 2020: the year of nothings plenty. Since all the new demand/buyers they're trying to spread the love to keep everyone involved.

I'll be in for my three MC boxes. It will be interesting to see if they go the raffle route again for non-MC like they did with BB and FF. If they do go with a raffle, I would think that would mean that the PR has been reduced. Unless everybody ends up winning the raffle. :-)

Lol that would be funny. Everyone enters, everyone wins and excitement abounds... then they open up for normal purchases with 20 box limits, ship those out first... and then right at the end raffles and MC boxes haha:)

Last year was close to 12,000 boxes. Makes sense to allow 3 since that is what was offered for FF and a little bit lower PR. If 2,000 members that is half of the PR if kept the same.

Wow, so it’s gotten to this point, that MC memberships need priority for Archives Snapshots. I’m not saying they shouldn’t, but as ppl pointed out in years past it was on Topps website for weeks before selling out, hell I remember in 2018 I spent $1000 on these. If flippers & breakers are going to buy these out in an hour then there’s nothing left Topps can release that won’t immediately sell out, which means time to double the print runs

This is actually one of the products advertised for early access (same with Sapphire)- was strange to me at the time (Sapphire wasn't ha) but makes sense now. I'm not sure these are going to be the best flip, but I think its worth the assumed $75 to try
smanzari
09-17-2020, 09:08 AM
I've been thinking about this release and its "flipability" and I think I'm actually going to pass on my MC boxes. I think there will be a secondary market though not a strong one initially (ie not worth it) and I don't have the strength to hold unsealed wax (even garbage like this has proved to be in its past). Am I the only one feeling this way? Feel free to quote this if I'm super wrong, ha!
LittleJimmies
09-17-2020, 10:33 AM
Actually not sure about this either. Seems like the only reason is "It's only $75" assuming it's only $25 a pack. I really like the card design in the past, but didn't realize just how little they go for. For 2019, PSA 10 Eloy RC auto last went for $75 and a PSA 9 Soto /10 auto went for $74!

This was a cheap fun break last year, I'm in for one. $25 for a guaranteed auto sure I'll take that every time. There is no way there is a raffle for this. I'm confused there is even a pre-sale but eh, you paid for early access so no complaints.

The surprising part to me is the limit. I mean I don't understand why anyone would buy 20 + boxes of this but what someone does with their money isn't my problem. This isn't going to be some short print run.

The limit is only for Montgomery members and it's a nice little perk I think. The general sale might not have a limit

I get the point. This doesn't seem to be a product that warrants a box limit. But Topps wants to avoid what happened with BS Draft and Bowman Heritage last year. Also, the product does not have a huge PR and will most likely be around 12,000 boxes. So allowing MC members the opportunity to purchase about half the PR is a nice perk as noted above.

2018 was certainly worth buying in bulk, Acuna, Ohtani, Buehler, Devers, Albies, Trout, and a handful of other worthwhile autos including Joe Torre and Altuve. I pulled at least one of each main RC auto in my 40 boxes ($1000) with half of them color and a 1/1 Black Trout. I know that’s being a lucky sob, but even taking away the 1/1 Trout I easily got my money back before considering the base, and b/w, blue, gold parallels.
I passed last year as the auto list wasn’t strong and more filler than years past. I might buy 3 this year just in case, but I won’t buy big until I see an auto list, Topps auto lists have been getting worse and worse since 2010, with a ridiculous amount or repeat autos available in half a dozen other 2020 releases

I'm glad that the MC limit is set as 3 boxes.
If they said 20 is the limit, FOMO would have kicked into me and I would probably have bought 20 boxes with bunch of meh autos/parallels pulled.
3 boxes are good enough for me to enjoy the break while not overspending.

Pretty obvious why the limit is 3 - it builds hype.
If this was just posted with no fanfare, no MC pre-orders, no limits, it may sit like it did the last few years.
I bought this before, 4 boxes. Got the same C-list auto in 3 of my 4 boxes.

Nothing at $25 and a gaurenteed auto in this card economy is sitting. Meh product...sure. Product for the price of a blaster....it will be gone. Wont shock me if these magically start at $60-75 on ebay....for a few days.

So I have a serious problem with the 3 max limit. It says it in the email, but it doesn’t say it on the website. You can only purchase 3 at a time on the website, but it doesn’t say anything that is said in the email about cancelling your order if you purchase more than 3. And there are a number of MC members who say they don’t get emails. I know when I’m at work I simply check the Topps website and go to MC exclusives to see if anything is there. I don’t wait for an email. Who’s taking the chance on purchasing more than 3 now?

Bought 10 just now, in addition to the MC 3 boxes.
Really shouldn't have bought the 3 boxes from MC pre-sale.
That was a waste of additional shipping, especially as the public sale limit was raised to 10 boxes and it doesn't seem like a super popular product anyways.

Good point, but maybe if most MC members pre ordered then they will keep the gravy train rolling and try to always offer us a presale on more products hot or cold! Never know when something unexpectedly catches fire.
(Thats consensus on the finest flashback, right? I never heard any pre hype about it, but I sometimes miss stuff.)
P.S Im not saying this is going to be like F.F, just making a point :)!

If you have never opened these basically all of the stars have about 5-10 autos and then there are several of the lower tier names. You could buy 10 boxes and get 2-3 of the same low tier auto names. It has happened every year for me.

Because those big boys will have 5-10 autos each, while Albert Alzolay and Tony Zeuch will have 3000 autos.
I buy this product every year because it's fun to rip at the low price of $25/box, but 90% of the auto pull are duds.

Kind of defeats the purpose if you’re spending $10 on a card, no? lol
Sure Post is like $7.50.

I think there was an accepted offer of $60. There are so many new buyers in the market that anything seems to sell now.
2019 is still only going for $55-60 so wouldn't expect these to settle any higher. Fun cheap rip though compared to what everything else is going for.

Sold out pretty quickly. A very underrated release for sure. As someone who doesn't rip boxes open often, a guaranteed auto at this cheap of a price is nice.

Kind of defeats the purpose if you’re spending $10 on a card, no? lol
Sure Post is like $7.50.
edit: Realizing now that for 10 boxes it would be well above that, so makes sense in that case.
even if you get 1 box it is basically like getting the extra card or whatever at 75% off...and free shipping. I didn't really want the Mandalorian set, but I could probably sell it for 5 bucks...so net positive! :)

Maybe the real trick is redeeming your points for a Topps Now card and get the free shipping on top of it ;)

FYI: if you add a Topps Now card or something else to your order, shipping is free. I got one of the Mandalorian sets for 9.99 and free shipping with the 10 boxes of snapshots...if the Topps Now cards were better, I might have gotten one of those.
If you buy a TN product for the free shipping expect to be waiting a while. Since you ordered together, Topps will typically wait and everything together. This means your 10 Arch-SS boxes will sit on the shelf till TN card is made and ready to go.... even then FedEx Saver can be a trainwreck. Tracking can be wildly inaccurate and I've had orders take a month in transit.
Only time Topps shipped me something separately I paid for overnight shipping on a team auto set. Topps sent team base immediately overnight and auto via Saver later. The entire reason for paying for overnight was to have more secure shipment and tracking for player auto.

$48 Bin or $50 OBO on eBay.
The guys bidding these up higher are either being shilled or have rocks in the head.
They’ll be as low as $30-35 shipped for a bit. Too many sellers tried to get in on this.

I bet he is somewhat of an SP in this product.
Is the Ichiro serial numbered to 25?
Or does it just mean the card is part of the 25 card set?

Based on the pack odds, current market and improved auto checklist these will hold at $40+ a box. Last year Eloy, Alonso, Vlad and Soto were the only autos that fell at a reasonable rate that were decent hits.
Design is awesome this year, has a much deeper checklist across the board including Robert, Lewis, Bichette, May, Alvarez plus a ton of mid tier rookies. Will be interesting to see how SP Acuna, Torres, Soto and Alonso are in the set.

Do you mean if Topps allow non-MC to buy after the presale? They did on day two...9/18...and sold out. As another person mentioned, last year and even in 2018, the boxes were available at least for a couple of days...not this year...so either the bots bought a ton of it...or the print run may be the same as the past or possibly even lower.

My bad man wasn’t trying to be a d***... I really don’t get to open much of anything anymore with prices where they are at and retail is always run ragged. So for $25 a box with guarenteed autos just wanted to maximize this rip.

All this Ed Kranepool talk got me looking. He has to have one of the lowest bWar for any player with over 5,000 at bats.
https://www.baseball-reference.com/players/k/kraneed01.shtml
EDIT: Just ran the numbers. For players with greater than 5,000 plate appearances, Ed Kranepool has the 18th lowest bWAR ever. I don't subscribe to Stathead so it doesn't show me the worst one. I can say that Keith Moreland and Alfredo Griffin meet the criteria and have lower bWAr.

My 3 boxes yielded not one single color parallel. However, I did get an extra auto in the second box.
I just found Snapshots last year, and really liked the simplicity of the set and checklist, so I knew this wasn't supposed to be a "hot" ticket item.
But then my third box yielded my first Luis Robert auto...

My 3 MC boxes:

Hunter Harvey Auto
Oscar Mercado Auto
Nico Hoerner Black & White RC
Mark Teixeira Walkoff Gold 6/10
Didn't hit any big base RCs, one base of Tatis, one of Judge. Was hoping for a Bernie, LeMahieu, or Abbott auto, but no such luck.

Did 100 boxes yesterday.
Frustrating that Topps has Bichette and Lux on the Auto checklist but they certainly did not get put into the pack out. Amazing how rare autos for Ryan, Trout, Soto, Acuna appear to be and these guys certainly didn't sign Blue, Gold or B&W parallels. Topps should really have to print this on the wrapper like they used to with Group A, B, C odds etc.
Yes a lot of bad autos just like any other product, but for $100 worth of packs at SRP you are getting close to a base set, 4 autos and 2-3 inserts #d less than 50.
Most listed in my store but my better hits:
Robert Auto
Robert Blue Auto x 3
Posey Walkoff Black 1/1
Acuna Walkoff Color Auto x 2

Given a lot of collation issues and a packout problem or two in Topps releases this year, I wonder if there is another production error that Bichettes or redemptions for Bichette were not put in the packout hoppers and Topps didn't know about that and left him in the checklist they posted.

Rip it, otherwise you’ll never know the auto and parallel. Those could be even better. I had Robert o. The back of my pack and had to rip for the above mentioned reason. I honestly don’t remember now what was in that pack as I opened all three of my packs right away and mixed all the contents together.

Agreed. I pulled a base Alonso auto and have now seen three Gold Alonso autos #d /10 pulled or on eBay but haven’t come across another base auto of his. It could be coalition or maybe I missed a few but it would be good to understand if some cards were SP or not and to what levels.

Mistake by Topps, shouldn't have a Rookie logo. There are usually a few errors every year with that stuff.
2019 Topps Finest Franmil Reyes had rookie logos but his rookie year was 2018.

Got my first 3 boxes in yesterday. Autos & parallels (only b&w) were ok.
I did however only get 1 double base card, so currently stand at 26 out of the 50 card base collected. Based on the earlier collation comments, I was pretty happy with that.
We'll see if my last three boxes offer any surprises.
