This has a life of its own. People have too much $ "invested" into this. This ain't gonna go away after a few days.

Their lawyers gonna tell them never admit a mistake.

Where’s the Topps vaseline gif?

In the court of public opinion, yes. Confirmed.

Probably a few thousand boxes opened by now. So only .1% of the run. Probably didn’t start printing the ESPs until near the million mark halfway point.

Dick's listing states item will ship October 16th or something I believe.

My case of Blasters shipped yesterday(Friday).

He’ll be excluded as it’s well documented he bought before the checklist came out, and profited by selling after the checklist but before the product released.

I was looking forward to Heritage High this winter but after Series 2 ans TC I’m really wondering how badly they’ll screw up the rookies in that too. Shame with all of the potential RCs we have this year. Yeah, I’m 45 so I’ve been collecting baseball cards since ‘82. My thing is to collect rookies of every year until I die. Then I can have great memories looking at the cards and when my daughter or grand kids ask me about “X” player I’ll be able to show them cards and tell them stories. Once I’m gone, they can keep collecting and have my cards or sell them and use the profits for whatever. Only difference between when I was a child and today I have larger allowance lol.

Thank goodness for a well paying job - helps us fuel our addiction without too much guilt!

I think you will be fine with topps heritage high. The buy in prices are fairly reasonable and usually soften a bit through the winter, so it’ll be a safer purchase than the 2022 topps chrome mess.

If you paid $879 for a jumbo based on what you thought was a sp rookie checklist, then I have no sympathy for you.

I didn’t buy a box or buy into breaks. Just an observer.

Someone is going to cut open a box lid and find one a month from now.

Absolutely. $85 currently for a hobby box is nothing near the dong punch TC hobby and jumbos are 😂

I’m not referring you you specifically, but addressing all pumper flipper bois and degenerate gamblers out there.

oldgoldy97 · 09-17-2022, 01:49 PM

If this was UD, they’d put these ESPs (and the wood minis) into 2022 Big League that releases summer of 2024.

oldgoldy97 · 09-17-2022, 01:49 PM

Well, maybe 2024 Archives.

It’s a great value product.

Breakers hate breaking it and pumpers hate flipping it cause the profitz aren’t there, so it keeps prices under control.

Plus everything is on card autos and the red inks of the better rookies will be highly sought after - I’m definitely going to bust some!

Already preordered 2 cases @ $950 each a while back.

I think this is the smart move for today.

I'm in for 2 cases at 975 each.

I've bought 2 cases each of 2022 Series 2, Update, Stadium Club, High Number.

Seems to be JRod or bust for the future of my 2022 wax.
