Sounds logical. Thanks for the info!

I'd love to see some time lapse videos of her work sometime.

It's that time again my LS brothers. 15% eBay coupon PERFECTDAY

Min $25 purchase. Max $100 value. One time use. Exp: 9:00pm pt/12:00am est.


I buy new releases on release day but I need to be patient so I can get more value out of these coupons. Just scared I'll forget to order completely if I wait too long.

Haven’t posted in this thread for a while so I may have missed if already discussed, but did they make changes to the cardboard stock they use for these cards? Just received cards 40-42 yesterday and they feel different compared to the earlier cards in the set. Who knows, maybe it’s just in my head.

Others have commented that the Happ stock felt different on the returns. As far as I know, Topps has not commented on the card stock.

That was me mentioning the Happ stock. I had another seller on Ebay draw my attention to it and that was the only one I saw a difference in. I'm getting ready to open a few thousand of different players, so I'll let you know if I notice any differences, lol. I haven't heard anything official from Topps either, but I'll ask them when I get a chance.

Jeeves let me know you won’t see them at Fan Fest...perhaps the National. That would be brilliant way (an auction at the National) to advertise the product.

Just posted this on another thread also. Was really great code. Bought some Inception 2018 Hobby Boxes for around $50 each delivered! Pretty happy...

Now already goes all the way to the ceiling so I may have to move it



I’ve got plans to sell most of my PSA (non) Now so this will fill up.

Once I get these graded and the garage under AC, Living will find a place in here...starting at the far side. it’s still a disaster with half the collection in white boxes. Think this shelf Living is on now will become my HOF rookies collection. 73–>

I was as big a proponent of PSA like Topps Now. It’s why I was shocked to get ban for a minor infraction...well until I put two and two together and realized they were most likely ripping me off. Had some of the best sets of 1980’s and 90’s. You will not find them even on the retired sets lists as they did their best to make me disappear.

Yes, I can not submit. I was doing $1000’s a month too...it’s fine now I have moved on. I’ve not forgotten and will bash them any chance I can, though.

Just wanted to say thank you very much for maintaining the spread sheet! It's really useful, even for someone like me who just collects most of the RCs and key cards.
