i think “free” boxes could easily be over 1000. a lot of mc orders got double shipped, and i’ve heard of individual people that got 100 boxes shipped after they were refunded from the public sale.

Doubtful that would make a dent in pricing. It's silly to think anyone is going to have a fire sale or actually give away their boxes. And it should go without saying that the more boxes a customer was shipped, the more likely they won't remain free but at this point it's just preaching to deaf ears.

I wasn’t suggesting anything about future pricing, just that the “free” boxes are way more than a couple hundred here or there.

No, it was in reference to an earlier post by another member. I don't think you'd ever post something like that.

Haha... I truly haven't been opening much MLB lately. Mostly soccer and hitting some bangers in soccer. Glad to hear they were better than I initially thought

Trying just a little too hard there but you are at least mildly entertaining.

Thank you sir! I aim to please. And thank you Topps! I am pleased to put it mildly. Also a bit surprised that Topps hasn’t even attempted to address the issue as of yet. Just crickets.

Ok, so maybe they are starting the re-charging process. Did you buy straight from credit card? I made all purchases through paypal.

All depends on what percentage of the print run was "free." Bot guys fall all over themselves undercutting each other when they've actually paid for products. Safe to assume that would be exacerbated if their inventory is "free." I have no idea how much botters participated in the public release and how successful they were. Obviously, also depends on whether Topps seeks payment or not. Lots of unknowns.

It'll be interesting to see if any of the public boxes are as loaded as the MC boxes were.

yeah general soccer releases without top rookie to chase will do about that here in the US. The Merlin name is a pretty big hobby name accross the pond. I'd like to buy a box or 2, but the estimated shipping has me thinking to try to pick it up elsewhere, or hope I find some retail. I also wonder if they will have Lite boxes as I could care less about paying up for a garanteed auto?
