Congrats! I like the Altuve! Nice Crews Sapphire Selections too…I’ve always been partial to the Sapphire Selections autos. Can’t wait to see what the Ohtani looks like.

Not thrilled with the auto, but can’t complain about the color. Merrill is the IV & #1/10. No other notable rookies other than the Schwellenbach

The Altuve got snatched up quickly by a buyer. More than half way to my box price, lol. I'l probably PC the Crews card unless I got an offer I can't refuse plus a few base cards.

If anyone pulls any color for Tyler Fitzgerald of the Giants (card #30). I'd love to make a deal.

Box prices already on the rise. (Thank you Topps for the small checklist!)
Yesterday the cheapest boxes on Dealernet were $650, today $750. |

I mean…Topps didn’t make this available to the general public for the most part other than Montgomery club. It was bound to cause prices to spike in the short term. Nobody except a select few can get their hands on it, so FOMO took hold. Genius distribution strategy! Take a $300 product, artificially limit supply, so you can charge double the price on market and use it as justification to raise it for next year when rookie class ya going to be much deeper than this year.

Nothing insane but a really fun rip that absolutely destroyed my 2 chrome Jumbos + the 5 Logofractor boxes I opened. Maybe one year I’ll learn?

DealerNet is a private site for dealers that requires a log-in and monthly subscription fee. They can't manipulate the market because A.) They are selling to each other, and B.) They can post buy offers as well as sell offers so you always know which dealer is paying the most and which is selling at the lowest price. DealerNet is the place you go if you don't want to deal with manipulation. Everyone's cards are on the table, so to speak, and they are flipped up.

This release was a slam dunk from the start. I scratched my head at some point who didn't want it. As previously mentioned, last years had the entire 700 card checklist so its really hard to hit anyone good in the base. This years is better with the base checklist, smaller autograph checklist, and also the potential to hit a monster like Ohtani. To think it would be cheaper than last years doesn't really make logical sense. It was destined to go to a minimum of $800 a box. A lot of boxes have also had multiple autographs. |

Opened mine. My auto was a Luisangel Acuña Sapphire Selections auto. Rest was dirt. Did I bomb out?
