Thanks. I love them. I know autos are a tough pull and 24 boxes doesn’t even come close to guaranteeing one but it is a nice auto checklist and the hockey insert is cool. Got a 1/1 auto from Japan Edition so who knows.

Yeah, seems like it all left the UK ok. Maybe they sent all the East Coast stuff by boat!

Finally saw an update, package has apparently landed in Chi-town, should show up for me on Mon, so if you haven't checked your status lately, maybe try again now?

If anyone hits some Whitlock parallels, I'd be interested it adding these to my Update project.

my 2nd order of 5 boxes arrived early today... order was placed 1/13

[zammos1]

Reached out to Topps Direct via email on Wednesday for my 12 boxes. Got a response back today that due to a technical error the order details were "trapped in the system".

Said the order is being forwarded to me within the next 48 hours with a tracked service provided by DPD. Not sure if it means they'll ship it within 48 hours or it will be some expedited service where I'll have it within 48 hours.

I ordered a half case on 1/11, showing delivery mid-next week.

And a reminder, I will pay nicely for Jose Ramirez color.

I wish. I check every morning. I reached out to DPD and they said there is something wrong and I need to have Topps Europe LTD contact them to initiate an investigation. I contacted them the only way possible (via a message) and they got back 24 hours later telling me I needed to contact US support with the main US contact info. I did, got right through shockingly, and he said they can’t look up UK Bookings (orders I suppose) at all. Try UK again and be sure to write in there that the US cannot look up or help. I found a UK customer service phone number and made the international call to find out their phone center is closed for COVID and the only way is through sending a message/email. I sent another and copied the email from DPD customer service along with an explanation that US cannot help with this order. It has to be them. Of course, all of this was sent at the end of their Friday in the UK so my order that was supposed to take 2 weeks and get here 1/18 likely won’t get here until after 2022 series 1 is out. What a nightmare!

That is a nightmare. I used a package forwarding service for Japan Edition and that could not have gone smoother. Debated doing that here despite the free shipping through Topps. I wish had at this point.

What's the Kelenic worth?

Yikes, sorry to hear this, but it actually kind of mirrors the issue I ran into last year with UK edition when I tried to mail back a bunch of damaged cards from one box. After struggling to get people to respond, first (I think) Topps UK said I'd need to contact Topps US for replacements instead, so I mailed in the stuff, and it got returned to me with a note saying I needed to send to UK instead! There's a definite disconnect between the US and UK offices.

On the plus side in my case, though no one ever replaced the damaged cards, they actually ended up sending me three free replacement boxes, so I was happy enough with the outcome! Hopefully you'll end up getting some sort of bonus out of all this, too.

Hard to say... i would guess it doesn't have quite the same appeal as the US /50 (mother's/father's day) which have sold for between $3-600

ill prob throw it up with a high bin and field offers for awhile

[JRamIsTheKing]

Cracked a few boxes. Have plenty of color available for sale or trade, hit me up. I would like to finish the throwback Redux insert set. If you have some, let me know.

When did these sell out on the Topps Europe website? Bummed I missed out on them.

They must have just sold out within the last couple of days. How did you miss out? They were ripe for the plucking for over a month.

If anyone hits parallels of Ian Anderson and wants to move them, plese let me know!

[JRamIsTheKing]

Checking in to see if any of you cracked this product. I collect Jose Ramirez and just assumed he didn't have any parallels in this one as none had ever popped up on eBay - until today! If any of you have these, I am willing to pay well. I need all but the base and black.
