I hope I don't get priced out on those Bregman auto relics.
Bregman seems like a super cocky guy, but he does have the skill to back it up.
One of the top rookies that redeemed himself after not meeting people's expectations for a while (at least in this hobby).

I haven't seen the cockyness just a calm dude for a RC, Bellinger looks like a cocky dude imo but doesn't bother me. I get more personality watching them talk to the Media. I'm a fan if both

I also hope I'm not priced out as well, prices better be less than bellinger.

Bregman got in an argument with a fan on Twitter a while ago, which kind of took away my interest towards him at the time.
He even DMed the fan.
He deleted his account at that time, but seems like the account is open again.
A lot of his post on twitter also shows the cockiness of him, though that might be typical for any 23 year old...

Anyways, that was in the past, and I'm starting to like him again!

cp312 · 10-30-2017, 10:41 AM

Definitely interested on a /199 or /99 depending on price tiers or maybe I'll sell some of my other non-Now Bregs and just go for the relic

Monty · 10-30-2017, 11:06 AM

Fred, Jeeves, print runs please (cards #830-832, OS-2). Game #5 of the TNPRPL Championship awaits your efforts in doing so!

Thank you!

Wood /10 Auto is back up... Unless is never left...

messier2 · 10-30-2017, 12:00 PM

Let's see how my predictions do:

Bregman- auto

# to 199 ($74.99)
# to 99 ($99)
# to 49 ($119)

Bregman- auto relic

# to 25 ($299)
# to 10 ($499)
# to 5 ($799)
# to 1 ($1,499)

Astros relic

# to 99 ($59)
# to 49 ($89)
# to 25 ($149)
# to 10 ($299)
# to 5 ($499)
# to 1 ($999)

messier2 · 10-30-2017, 12:02 PM

With that said, if the purple /25 is $299, I'm in. If higher, I'll pass and wait for something from the clinching game.

I never saw that one go out of stock

Edit: Now it has

mlbfan10 · 10-30-2017, 12:18 PM

Hoping for good/fair pricing today

TimBuckTwo · 10-30-2017, 12:25 PM

I would like if Topps went back to the /99 auto/relics to give us poor folks a crack at some good gear.

okumeister · 10-30-2017, 01:12 PM

I'm guessing the Bregman orange auto relic will be sold out already with Platinum reserve when the cards pop up on the website.
Or, are most of the Plats actually avoiding Orange reserve because of unforeseen high price?

I'll be refreshing the page every 5 minutes now, just in case the new cards pop before yesterdays' are gone.

tribefan26 · 10-30-2017, 01:12 PM

I’m guessing today’s don’t post until yesterday’s are down - so 3 eastern or later. I’m waiting to see the bundle 12 cards minimum?

I passed on the Wood Auto. If Astros win I’m guessing that is a available over the winter for less than cost. If not, I made a mistake.

I’m guessing with an off day they will wait until yesterday’s are down before posting the bundle today - but I’m also checking. I would have loved the first Topps Now booklet for the 5 HR cards!

okumeister · 10-30-2017, 01:15 PM

Even with the great game yesterday, if Astros end up losing the WS somehow, the Bregman auto relic will be valued less than cost in the off-season.
Might be valued less even if they win the WS, being only an auto relic from Game 5, and not the final game.
This is the scary part about Topps Now.
But I'll probably buy anyways for today.

messier2 · 10-30-2017, 01:16 PM

The deadline for the Platinum people is 2 pm so, the cards are up 1 to 1 1/2 hours after the deadline.

3 to 3:30...so, you can save your F5's!

Thank you!

They are working on a 21 card bundle after last night. Give ‘em some time!

BigEd · 10-30-2017, 01:39 PM

There can be a bunch of Astros cards, but I really hope the Dodgers only have one or two. It's hard buying cards from a game they lost. None of the individual feats were that great, so they shouldn't have cards IMO. And it will help me buy the auto/relics when the Dodgers do win.

I agree! And I love your confidence!

In 2022?

okumeister · 10-30-2017, 02:02 PM

Get ready.
The usual "not able to load page" happening with yesterday's cards being taken down.

tier1dc · 10-30-2017, 02:03 PM

think the topps now site is pre-crashing right now

tribefan26 · 10-30-2017, 02:03 PM

Bad gateway is here!

It always does when they are taking down previous day's cards.
But that is also a step forward to getting new cards uploaded, so I hope we are close to seeing the new cards.

okumeister · 10-30-2017, 02:11 PM

The Bad Gateway is quite long today.
