my question is
 
[QUOTE=salthill;14681583]Surely Bryant will get one for three HRs in three innings off three different pitchers?[/QUOTE]

why make a topps now card during the season if the rtod is already making a bonus one.

why make two cards for the same event?

[QUOTE=okumeister;14680482]Kind of a bummer that many of the debut relics are from their road games (except for Tatis Jr. which was at Petco).
Brendan Rodgers will also be debuting in Philadelphia.
Still nice to have the relic, but just thought it would be even better if they were called up on their home game, and relic also made from the home stadium.[/QUOTE]

Especially Rodgers. Those Rockies home side plates would look sweet on a /5 or /10.

[QUOTE=salthill;14681583]Surely Bryant will get one for three HRs in three innings off three different pitchers?[/QUOTE]

Definitely. One could even argue that feat is relic worthy.

MMantle 05-18-2019 10:35 AM

Cards up, nice price for a relic/auto. Picked up one of the /99.

kpete42 05-18-2019 10:37 AM

Got a /25. Love that purple on a Rockies card!

okumeister 05-18-2019 10:38 AM

I bought a /99, but now the cards seem to be gone from the website.
Though it’s probably for a brief moment.

guru 05-18-2019 10:44 AM

I picked up the /99 base auto. Very nice looking card front and back.

okumeister 05-18-2019 11:25 AM

Rodgers #/99 and 1/1 are sold out.

Jake, your IMs are full. (Sent for today’s Bryant.)

I thought today's offering of card #242 was Urshela's first Yankee card, and didn't realize #122 from April 22nd was actually his first Yankee card.
None of the #122 are on sale now on ebay, and last two sold prices shows around $15.
With relatively low print run of 272 (especially for a Yankee), I think the card is taking off.

Agree. I think anything sub 300 for a Yankees and Cubs card is a really low print run. Each team has had a handful this season. Much more than the last few seasons. If either team wins it all, a lot of these cards will take off imo.

speedyjg13 05-18-2019 09:39 PM

Trout auto tomorrow? An auto base relic? With #250 HR inscription?

#118 - David Bote - PR233
#125 - Javier Baez - PR234

I missed ordering those and now they're insane on eBay. $80 for Bote and $50 for Baez. Could probably get autos for them cheaper than that.

That would be expensive! lol
250 HR is great, but I kinda wish they would wait until 300 HR to do an auto or auto-relic.

No auto today. Only.base card.

Is there an online database that has print runs by team or by year of the base cards? Or a database that you can punch in a date and it shows what cards (if any) were made of the games of that day?

Um card 122 is not Urshela it is Arenado.

Card 121 is Urshela.

121 Gio Urshela - New York Yankees: Game-Winning Single in Top of 14th Inning(PR=272)
122 Nolan Arenado - Colorado Rockies: Star Hits Go-Ahead HR for 1,000th Career Hit (PR=314)

“Maddux” by Alcantara!
And I noticed that the Marlins haven’t had a single Topps Now card made in 2019 regular season yet lol
This could be the first! And maybe last...

In case anyone on here is interested..

150 YoBB: Doesn't seem to be any interest in this set besides myself and a few others so after this week I will not be buying it all together. My concept of making a coffee table book of this set seemed nice at first but considering you won't ever have a few key players in the set due to rights issues it seems it will be an incomplete story, I should have thought of that sooner. So unless this changes and I have a massive surge in interest I will be discontinuing after #33. If there is interest in the art cards beyond four people I will pick up them up as they come out at the $5 each price...the art on these is better then the Living set in my opinion, but the blue design doesn't compliment all teams so there is that. White boarders would have been best. DO PICK UP A #33 IF YOU DON'T HAVE IT. FIRE SALE ON #3 TROUT AND #1 RUTH IS NOW JUST $5 A CARD (NEARLY HALF THE PRICE OF CURRENT EBAY BIN AUCTIONS) ONLY CENTERED CARDS...NOT THE OFF CENTERED CRAP THAT MOST OF THESE SEEM TO BE.
ADDED VALUE SALE: LOOKING TO COMPLETE THE ART CARD SET??? I HAVE ALL 3 AVAILABLE FOR JUST $20 FOR THE NEXT 24 HOURS.

TOPPS NOW: Lack of sales on the #248-#251 over the evening has let me cut back to just 5 of each card so those AND are no longer for sale at any price. Do pick up each from your favorite flipper at $5, they each have possibilities of short printing except the rookie. Especially with me not buying deep on them. I still have the 2016 Freddie Freeman #117 listed at $10 is anyone is interested....going no lower then that on that card, if you can get it cheaper I suggest you do so.
Cubs Phillies game was awesome and JT deserves a card for the 10th inning homer, if that comes out I will be getting 20 of those. It was the only game I watched yesterday and am taking Lisa to the airport this morning so no time for Quick Pitch...What events did you see?

LIVING: My 3 pack of 20 Vlad's came in and these were much better 17 out of 20 good to go, so most of you will be getting your shipments (still waiting on the 40 bad ones to be replaced) and in my apathy I've decided to just not even worry about the 3 damaged ones that came in yesterday. They have random marks on the front of them (like the white marks you see on the backs) something that seems to be becoming "A Thing". We still have enough folks to keep Living at $5 a card (even though most cards never rise in value) to continue if you all would like. If you are a random buyer of these just shoot me a note of how many, what card and send prompt payment (before Wednesday mornings) and we will see about keeping this set going.

TBT: A wonderful set but will NEVER EVER be pre-selling this disaster of a set again. Have no idea who checks these cards but centering IS NOT A THING THEY UNDERSTAND, no way I pay $3 a card for a random chance at a decent card. Typically the sets have one or two nice cards that are must have's, let some other guy buy them, get them graded and pay $20 for it on eBay...you will be much happier and so will your bank account. It is a crying shame that this set has gotten this bad...Topps took a GREAT set and destroyed it (For me). I've been told repeatedly that this would be fixed and it has not and every week I am throwing away cards. Also don't think your average flipper cares either (actually the opposite) as 90% of the after market cards I've bought up via eBay come and are returned. If I could suggest a flipper I would...I CAN NOT because the product is that bad. Perhaps this is Topps' long game...these cards in Gem Mint will be impossible to find in 10 years. It's a shame the set will not carry on that long...Do buy the set this week and roll the dice on a chance at a centered Vlad. New catch phrase for TBT should be "Take a $20 chance that the 1 in 6 cards in this set will be centered!" "Even you can win!"

Only thing I suggest on TBT is buying Gem Mint graded versions of these...avoid the rest (without photos). I have older issues that I am selling that I assure you are gradable but I can't / won't list on eBay against inferior cards at give away prices anymore.

I do sound bitchy this morning...but after spending as much money as I have on these and still having to feel like a beggar asking for replacements each week will make you bitchy.

Want to see the checklist/price guide of Topps.com products? E-mail [email]joejoemay@yahoo.com[/email] SPREADSHEET IS UP DATE, GET YOUR PAYMENTS IN...IF YOU DON'T YOU CAN'T ORDER AND IF YOU DON'T BY MAY 31 YOU DON'T NEED TO WORRY AS YOUR CARDS ARE FORFEIT

REMEMBER I AM SLOWLY GOING TO NO LONGER BE PRE-SELLING ANY TOPPS PRODUCTS SO DON'T COME EXPECTING CARDS FOR LESS THEN $5 EACH BUT COME EXPECTING SOMEONE WHO HAS SIFTED THROUGH THE GARBAGE TO GET YOU A QUALITY CARD.

Ah. I was wondering what the issue was. I was trying to get my Star Wars cards for the week and Paypal wouldn't work for me.
