Topps just sent an email saying this product has been delayed.
Dear Topps Customer, We are reaching out to provide you with an update on your pre-order for the 2024 UFC Chrome. During a recent audit for this product, we discovered a quality issue and, as a result, will be postponing its release while we work to resolve it. At Topps, we prioritize providing our collectors with the best possible product, and we want to ensure that this issue is corrected before releasing the product to our collectors. As a result of this postponement, we are offering an option to cancel your order by e-mailing Topps support ( support@topps.com) with your request. Alternatively, you can wait until the product ships at a later date. We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience this may have caused. Thank you for your patience and understanding in this matter. Sincerely, The Topps Team

Yep, got the same within the last hour. I would like to know how long it will be delayed, because if it will be months, I probably will cancel and roll the funds into more 24 Topps Series 1 Baseball Jumbo boxes that are already live. My thinking is I can always go back and re-order the topps ufc when it becomes available and not have my money tied up. |

Yup just got the email too, lame how they're not offering credit like they did for people who bought into 2023 stadium club.

Cancelled my case. If it comes back soon at a higher price then oh well I’ll take it as a sign.

Announced a buyback program for this similar to the mvp buyback with chrome baseball. Winner of ufc 300 main event will be a buyback card.

Looks like they’re making retail for this. UFC store has blasters ($30) and megas ($60) available. Megas look way better in value on paper than a hobby with a guaranteed auto per box.

Got a shipping notification today from Topps.
I wish that checklist would drop too.

I haven’t done any deep dive on odds but with most topps products (baseball, soccer) retail has better bang for buck. Plus mega is stated as 1 auto per box. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Like most other chrome sets, autos aren’t the draw, it’s the parallels. If retail has long shots at decent parallels then I feel like you’re tossing money away on retail.

Color AND autos are what drives value. Do you have any info that says per $ hobby is better? As I stated historically on other topps products retail has been a better return on the $. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Last edited by BRob1; 03-16-2024 at 10:50 AM. |

I just did a quick scan of odds. Most true color (red, gold, blue, black) is about 6x longer odds in the mega than in hobby. They aren’t available in blasters. That tells me avoid blasters and focus on hobby or mega.
Most shops are selling hobby for $240, topps preorder price on hobby was $220 but actual price tends to be higher after presale window. Megas are 60 so hobby 4x more, so hobby better for color. Mega has twice as many autos per dollar and also ten xfractors per box. Based on that quick scan of odds I’d say hobby and mega are similar in $ return but stay away from blasters.

Obviously odds are way longer but for those priced out of hobby, a mega with a guaranteed auto and 10 exclusive x-fractors isn't bad. This is anecdotal but I've also seen more 1/1's come out of Topps than any other retail, and big ones. I don't get why liking one format always has to lead to trashing or downing the others, the original post didn't need to add "Megas look way better in value on paper than a hobby with a guaranteed auto per box." Now it's just format arguments when I'm waiting for a checklist lol

That’s what’s nice about topps retail. You can usually pull all the same cards that are available in hobby, unlike panini where retail is crap and all the big hits are in hobby. Would also add I expect hobby will be more boom or bust, where a mega is going to have a decent floor with 10 xfractors and an auto.
