I'm pretty experienced at parting out a case and maximizing returns and the cost of flagship cases has risen to the point where 50% positive returns is absolutely not the norm anymore. In 2020, sure,...

This is the worst product I have ever opened and it's not close. I would not buy another case if it were $500. In 2 cases my highest value card is a well centered Julio base card. All his purples are...

No Hidden Gems posted on ebay yet. Have to think they either didn't get packed out or are stashed in product direct from Topps or something. Was looking forward to seeing what those were.

Leaving out all of the SP and SSP, including the highly sought after vets would be a major disappointment. Given how Topps has bungled so many recent releases, I won't be shocked.

I'd wager the Julio auto /10 is more than double the value of the wander auto /5 right now. Wander just has so many more cards this year.
