What has been the best luck for everyone with getting parallels? Buying the 1 pack, 5 pack or 10?

Default 2023 MLB Topps Now



Dear Topps Now Platinum Members,

A flooded night of moments!

Braves superstar, Ronald Acuña scored his 132nd run of the season with a two-run home run in the fifth inning to break Dale Murphy’s modern day franchise record. This longball also set an NL record for most homeruns hit by a team. It has been a storybook season for Acuña as he continues to lead the Braves into the postseason.

Phillies slugger, Bryce Harper recorded his 1,500th career hit as he hit a long home run over the center field wall. This hit made him the sixth player ever to record 300 home runs and at least that many base knocks over his first 12 seasons. Harper joined the likes of Miguel Cabrera, Mike Trout, Nolan Arenado, Paul Goldschmidt and Manny Machado in that even more exclusive club.

Mets young prospect, Ronny Mauricio blasted his first career home run. The longball traveled 440 feet to the second deck of Citi Field with an exit velocity of 112.4 mph. Through his first ten games, he’s already hit five balls over 100 mph.

We will be holding three early offerings today. They are the following:

Ronald Acuña Jr., game-used base-relic from franchise record-setting run scored and NL team homerun record, one-card pack- /99 & below (/75 included)- $224.99 per pack.

Bryce Harper, game-used base-relic from 1,500th career hit, one-card pack- /99 & below (/75 included)- $224.99 per pack.

Ronny Mauricio, game-used base-relic from first-career MLB homerun, one-card pack- /99 & below (/75 included)- $199.99 per pack.

Like the other cards this year, members will be allowed to reserve one of these one-card packs.

Please be advised, today’s reservations will close at 12:30pm EST.

For today’s early offering, please visit the following links to order your packs. You must be signed into your account to purchase:

As always, if anybody has any questions or needs any assistance- please do not hesitate to reach out- we are here to help!

Thank you for your continued support and have a great day!

-The Topps NOW Team

The /75s are all green, in case anyone was wondering if they might try to make those a team-related thing. Apparently not.

Yeah or when they don't even do a photo of the play in question. Like McCormick's WS Game 5 catch last year. Card was just a picture of him high-fiving teammates lol

I forgot to reply to Topps and ask if they got one or two bases for the ATL/PHI cards. Guessing one, and if so, side jewels will be a premium and certainly better on the Harper than the Acuna. Awaiting response and will post.

I can't believe they are still all available and may get an answer for your question before it closes. Will post as soon as I find out or if there was a glitch.

Got an answer on both....

Hey Chuck,

The customer limit is unlimited but the cart limit is one- which would explain why customers can purchase one at a time. This customer would have to call our general customer service line within the next 48 hours for our teams to investigate. Also, these were 2 separate bases!

Thanks Platman! Here is my response for Topps.

I did complete the first order with 1 Acuna card and any order I try after with 1 Acuna card is getting denied/cancelled. I'm also getting a topps email saying denied but no reason is given.

Well, they responded quick but in time for my cart to show Acuna "sold out" when I tested it.

Nice pickup of the 1 though. Good luck!

Yikes, that would need a call to Topps Service so they can get your personal info and look at what's glitching. Sorry you couldn't land another.

Is the green a new color?

That price is SOOO high. 174 versions will be TOUGH to get back $200.

I think people are starting to wise up and not spend money on items that are tough to get money back.

I just want to thank and congratulate you, my fellow Now enthusiasts, for holding strong and allowing two out of three of yesterday's relics to sit there, not sold out, all the way until morning. Well done.

ive kinda checked out this year. my team sucks, and prices are just absurd now. not worth it IMO. last one i bought was the tigers no-hitter, and i regret it at the price i paid.

If this is the new pack format... they completely ruined it. I think they expected people to blindly throw money at anything they offer. You can't add 75 more cards and keep it the same price as before when those 75 cards didn't exist.

I look at it like it's 174 cards numbered to 87. The difference between 99 and 75 isn't that big.. the price they'd sell for on ebay will be pretty close. 99 to 49 is significant difference.

Let's see if they sell out. Also... will they keep the price the same going forward?

Never thought it'd happen but maybe people are finally wising up to the idea that we, as a collective, can influence pricing by not buying. Or, more realistically, the mass quantity of flippers scooping everything up regardless of price is learning that these don't flip well.

In the end, though, even if 90% sell by the end of the window, I'm afraid they won't really care. I'm not convinced that, at this juncture, they're looking at the sellout timeframe as an indicator of future demand opportunities/potential.

From my perspective, I feel like the longer these don't sellout, the less attractive they become to a large portion of buyers/flippers, hopefully, leaving more for us PC type guys to be able pick them up at reasonable prices. But that's my collector's wishful thinking, probably.

I got a tracking notification this morning. It’s either wemby relic, or a jrod redemption I’ve been waiting since the spring.

Any one else get tracking ?
