So I’m sure it’s been discussed but I haven’t seen. I see some Don C Thomas coming in hand, but can’t definitively tell. I’m assuming they are not foil covered? I feel like Topps intentionally made it look like these cards had foil accents (and Ichiro) and really dropped the ball.

Buyer “kodiackicks”

1. Received this shady message from a random buyer... should’ve known better




2. Then I get this message. Like no s*** it’s a preorder.





3. Triple checked everything, packaged nicely, took photos and everything, then shipped.



4. Received the following request a few moments ago... and yes, he uploaded a picture of the case he damaged. Do I have any recourse?

I think I'm out on P2020. Too Expensive so I'll just go back to the old adage of "buy what you like." If anyone wants in on a fanny or two, cards from Shore Griffey through Jamieson Trout, or an Efdot Yellow Gwynn auto PM me. Too much energy and stress to check prices each day.

The supremebois are a brazen bunch.

It's like there's no incentive to even conceal their identity or motives when they know they'll 100% win their case.


Disgusting.

Aren’t you supposed to send the cards within like 2 days of confirmed sale on StockX?
Were you pre-selling there?

This is why I am now buying only the cards I really like, and don’t care if I can EVER sell them. No stress that way and I get some beautiful cards for my PC. I’ll probably end up with about 25-30% of the entire set. And I’ll love it.

It'd be easier if there weren't three Yankees plus Trout. I might still end up going for Trouts at MSRP. My rationale was buy 3 of each, and since prices were rising so absurdly pre-Shore Griffey, I'd sell two and keep one for PC. Wish it were sustainable for that to still be the case.

That's what I'm doing. 1 Trout direct from Topps each time. If I get a gold label or auto, cool, if not, I'm cool with my $20 dollar card

Disgusting.
Yeah very disgusting. I knew this was coming but I played into it and played the nice guy to see what would happen. Doesn’t help that eBay has no call center right now.

Good call. Think I’m doing that except buying the 2 pack each day.

I can confirm that the Don C Frank Thomas cards are not foil covered. They were never presented that way. They display in person exactly like they do on screen.

Assuming more people jump back on the “only buying what I like” train, what is the lowest the print run will drop to? Say by the mid 200’s. Too late to really start, and still a long way from the end.

Do you think we’ll ever get back to sub 10,000 print runs?

I Am in the same boat. I purchased a Fucci Trout just to dip my toe in the water and received it today and absolutely hate it. I have a few more coming that I ordered that looked good to me online and if they are anything like this card, they will just be put away for potential future sales or trades. Everyone has said that the beauty of these cards are in the eye of the beholder and I am just not feeling it. Going to go ahead and move on but what the heck? At least I tried.

Absolutely, I made a Print Run prediction by month a couple days ago and I say the 250-375 cards will mostly be sub 10,000. With a small spike at the very tail end for nostalgia's sake.
