Correct, Plats are not given the price. For this one, individual plat members were allowed to reseve only one or so. Much more restricted than usual.

Yeah, I'd be worried about buying something without knowing the price or even a price range. But I don't live in that Plat world.

And it's not even an action shot.

Their image selection, as a whole, is deteriorating.

Boy, Topps brought out the screws for that one.

I'm sure plat demand dictates price

rutgersjpm · 06-23-2021, 01:37 PM

Don't fret. I'm sure there will be at least 8 more Topps Now autos for Wander before the end of the year. Fingers crossed the non-relic autos are sub $200, but I'm guessing it isn't likely.

Awesome job by Topps with this one in my opinion. So glad they made an auto relic for this moment instead of plain autos. Prices may seem steep, but there are already a few that have sold for healthy profits on the secondary market. This dude is a stud.

Not having the RC logo was a factor IMO, that being said I still would not have shelled out $400 for that card.

Disappointed in the picture they used, I was hoping for the swing or tap on his heart for the front of the card, with the actual ‘curtain call’ on the back side.

Yeah, totally.
I was all set to buy, and then was called into a meeting at work.
Was kinda pissed that I came back and refreshed only to find everything gone.
Then was pleasantly surprised that I wouldn't have paid $400 anyway. LOL

Anyone know how to use the reward codes? Have some from buying P70 cards and was planning on using on the Franco but just getting an invalid code message. Not the rewards you get for exchanging points but for buying product in general.

I'm not understanding the point in bold.
You have to exchange (redeem) the points to get the coupon that can be used for buying products.
So, I don't see how your above two points are separated with the word "Not".

Did you go to "Account", "Rewards", "Rewards on Your Points", click the coupon you want and receive the code?
If so, you should just be able to copy and paste that code into the "Apply Discount Code" section at checkout.

If that doesn't work, you probably need to email Topps or call them about the issue.

What Platman posts each time is literally all the information Platinums get.

No price is given. The restriction has always been one card per offering. You can choose from any tier except the 1/1. It has never been one reservation per tier.

If there were two distinct offerings, e.g., an auto-only card and a relic-only card, then we could reserve one of each offering. For example, I could reserve a /99 auto and a /5 relic.

After reserving a /25 Ohtani auto/relic (lowest available tier) blindly that wound up to be $1,500 back in 2018, my FOMO started to go away. Here's the email from back then:

Dear Platinum Members,

Shohei Ohtani had a career night against the Indians. He had 4 hits, 2 home
runs and equaled a mark last achieved by Babe Ruth.

As a result we are going to launch an autographed base relic and relic base
card tomorrow. Here are the cards available

Auto relic

# to 25
# to 10
# to 5

Relic

# to 99
# to 49
# to 25
# to 10
# to 5

You may reserve an auto relic and relic card. Pleas advise by noon EST if
you would like to reserve any cards.

I reserved a /49 base relic card as well that turned out to be $300. Luckily, Topps didn't charge sales tax yet.

I'm mostly sitting out on autos this year as my company has gone through several rounds of layoffs already. May need the money.

Contrary to popular belief, you don't have to spend six-figures to be Platinum. I've managed to stay a Plat I believe by buying base cards every day and I'm not a reseller.

That is interesting to know.

Although, over the course of the daily offerings, just one base card per day, considering ST and playoffs, that's still well over 20K.

I've spent 18K this year and nothing to show for it. I have no idea where the cutoff is or what all goes into it but I'd assume they'll have a few more platinum members next year

I don't know what you have to spend and I don't really care to reveal what my receipts last year were but ... I spent way over these sums and never got an invite.

Keep hearing the late autos are the reason we haven't seen the Top 100 set yet. Looking at RTOD and eBay, all 5 subjects have hard signed autos in either Now or a packed out product at this point.

Platman · 06-26-2021, 07:36 AM

Dear Platinum Members,

We are offering this morning two autographs for Topps Now, Aaron Nola and Dustin Pedroia.

Yesterday, Philadelphia Phillies ace Aaron Nola had 10 consecutive strikeouts in a game. This tied Tom Seaver’s 51-year old MLB record. Nola recorded 12 strikeouts and allowed 2 hits in 5 1/3 innings of work. He also drove in the team’s only run during the game. We will be commemorating Aaron Nola tying Tom Seaver’s record with the following autographed cards:

Aaron Nola
/99 – Autograph
/49 – Autograph
/25 – Autograph
/10 – Autograph
/5 – Autograph

The Boston Red Sox honored Dustin Pedroia with a pregame retirement ceremony yesterday before their match-up with the New York Yankees. This was in front of the first sellout of the season since Fenway went back to full capacity on May 29th. Red Sox greats were in attendance including Pedro Martinez, Jason Varitek, and Tim Wakefield to name a few. After throwing out the first pitch, Pedroia was presented a belt from wrestling legend Ric Flair. We will be commemorating Dustin Pedroia’s ceremony with the following autographed cards:

Dustin Pedroia
/99 – Autograph
/49 – Autograph
/25 – Autograph
/10 – Autograph
/5 – Autograph

Please email with the cards you would like to reserve by 11:00 a.m. EST this morning.

Thank you!
The Topps Now team
