I bought 10 via the preorder. Sold 8 as a presale and opened 2 for basically the price of one. I regret it. It was pretty brutal. I may make back $50 when I could have sold them unopened for $500.

I did mine through the chat. It was actually a decent experience outside of having to reach back out. Via the chat they’ll open the case and document what you want. I told them (because the value) I...

Well, I’ll give it to Topps. They communicated quickly and clearly - including thorough responses. Do I agree 100% with their determination? No. But I think it’s fair enough.

The small print says that it's the 'current market' of the card. What it sold for 2 years ago is irrelevant. In fact, I think I paid $900 and $1,100 for the two redemptions. So the fact that there's...

That’s not too absurd. I’ve ripped lot of Ginter. 10 boxes is two shy of a case. Most years I’ve gotten 4-7 autos and 2-3 rip cards in a case. To me that feels PRETTY close to what should be expected.
