Default 2021 Topps Formula 1 Hobby Pre Orders

This is my first time looking to preorder any hobby boxes. My question is, do prices fluctuate before release at all? Or should I just pull the trigger now?

Any other thoughts on this set?

If you are happy with the price now then pull the trigger. They normally only go up from here

It’s a shame there are no autographs sprinkled into the release. I’m sure short print variations will be the chase similar to baseball.

No reason to buy early. Summer dip across all sports. Just pickup some 2020 chrome or sapphire.

Hey guys. Sorry for the super noob question. But where are people even pre-ordering from? Is there a list or a FAQ I can be pointed to?

There are others. But blowout hosts this forum, so they’ve asked people not to post links to their competitors.

Seems like a lot of hype built into the preorder prices. At $80 a box I would be a lot more interested in this

Way too much hype. Second year cards of every driver and RC's of backmarkers and Yuki who hasnt done much while Gasly has been putting up solid finishes.

$60-80 might be generous.

Stuff is delayed until December 22. Maybe time for the prices to go down? I know, highly unlikely since 2020 TC is going nuts.

Topps Chrome is scheduled for October 20th. Will it get pushed back to 2022 or will Chrome release 2 months before base topps?

Foolish people are, 2020 was the IT year basically if you have tons of disposable income you don't care about I guess have at it but the risk vs reward is to high to make it worth while

People who want to lose a lot of money. Buy a base set for cheap and be done

Why is Chrome coming out before Flagship Topps? No previews yet either but tons of info for 2021 Chrome. Also 2020 cases are 30k now!?!?

Big corrections coming to F1 wax in 2021. Just nothing to prop it up.
