Or like a 3 card topper pack of variations or something. Just.... something.

They're handing out free money, that's something.

2025 BCS covered the cost of membership and then some for those who flipped sealed.

2019-20 TC UEFA Sapphire Box

Shoot, these boxes alone covered membership costs for multiple decades (should the membership club continue to exist).

And these weren't the only boxes one could've done well on!

I made so much money selling those sealed. I just wish I would've had the foresight to buy more. $100 for that F1 sapphire box was insane.

Speaking of F1. Why tf does US Topps never release F1 wax anymore? Only international Topps sites got the 2025 Light Out boxes. None to be seen on US.

Thanks, Fanatics!

Got my set yesterday. Today I got a UPS update with apparently another set arriving tomorrow. I'll be curious to see if it shows up.

Don't forget 2019 TC Sapphire at $50/box with either a 20 or 40 count limit per transaction. Many on here put in multiple orders.

Those were offered first to MC, right?

That first year of MC was fantastic.

All those offerings and we still got some tail end 2018 RCs of Sho/RAJ/Juanny.

I hate that I got back into the hobby in late 2018. I just missed that window of cheap products and insanely good players like Mahomes, Luka and Ohtani among others.

Products were still cheap during those times. Pandemic was when it all went crazy.

Yeah, no 2018 or 2019 product was hard to find. 2020 is when things got crazy. I opened a ton of 2018 chasing Ohtani, Hoskins, Torres, and Acuna. Back then though selling a base chrome card for $5 was a big deal. So I sold most of my Ohtani/Acuna rookies off. I’ve bought a lot back but I’d be sitting on a gold mine had I not. I remember 2017 Topps Chrome being clearanced out even after Judge had done amazing things. The market was just totally different.

I just got a second set for my single membership so maybe they sent it out to both the 2024 list and 2025 list. Someone screwed something up.

Might have something to do with that wave of canceled orders that came first. Maybe some orders shipped before the cancellation processed.

This makes no sense. I jumped back in, in 2019 and everything was cheap before the COVID run upl If you came back in 2018 then everything was DIRT CHEAP.

Everything was dirt cheap and stayed available forever. 2018 update was on clearance in places. Wait until a recession hits. Economy can't go up forever. Cardboard wax and breaking will probably be amongst the biggest hits. They're not an essential item, unless you have that addiction and can't quit. That'll change habits for a while except with Fanatics' monopoly, it will still probably stay ridiculously high priced, but at least there will be availability.
