yeah, I was wondering if the bottom right corner was dinged originally or if it was because he had trouble getting it in the penny sleeve

Not sure where to go after hitting a 1/1 Franco, but “Let’s Go!”.

I’m personally glad that it wasn’t a breaker, but just a random Joe pulling it!

I don't understand how that is a real person

He literally sounds as if someone programmed a computer to have the voice and exact reaction of a guy from Texas between the age of 35-43 with 2-4 beers in him when the Cowboys score a first quarter touchdown to take a 7 point lead.

I've been watching Brett's videos for a few months. He always says it's amateur hour for production values and he opens what he likes for himself. No Patreon page or hours-long breaks.
His pure enthusiasm and "schtick" ("Every Trout's a good Trout" "Step in the box baseball fans") is why I enjoy watching.
He's having fun and I'm thrilled he pulled that Franco.

I saw what looked like some damage and it very well could've been from the penny sleeve. It was good he took a break. I think a card like that you want to take your time and he realized that a few seconds after trying to stick it in there. I'm definitely putting that card down, snipping a corner, sticking it on a CS1 and flying it to PSA. It'll then go right to Goldin. Potentially a 6 figure card but the Vlad Jr Topps Chrome Superfractor went for $95k or so last year....with Topps Chrome Sapphire and Topps Chrome to be released....definitely sell now.

Hate to say it, but that's a bargain at current market. Especially no tax and free shipping.

Ah yes, let’s get an argument started. Just what we need more of at this point. Everyone get ready to say “I told you so” in 3…..2…..1……

There's a decent chance Topps starts shipping this mid-March.

There's a decent chance they are testing to see how stupid we are.

May not even ship sealed for all we know. Nothing is guaranteed or known.

MOST of these people came back after the odds and foils were posted and already admitted to buying. But still fun.

I think there was actually only one single member who said they were passing after the updated info and odds were released.
