If a large portion of you didn’t act like a crack whores trying to get new products and whine when you couldn’t get more to just turnaround and sell to rip others off there wouldn’t be an issue. You can say it’s the bots, but it’s the actions of many here that caused Topps to go scorched earth on multiple accounts.

Topps582 Cuck Club losing multiple members in the same household is a win for everyone except for little Timmy who definitely cares a lot about sports cards and couldn't just split the releases with his dad anyways if he actually did.

One of two things is going to happen. The big stores will be given the relevant information up front Im sure.

First all those memberships and more will go to big stores like BO. That is pretty clearly why that language of Topps letting you have a letter and you can have as many memberships as you want is there. Prices will be lower from Topps. Big stores will have the vast majority of boxes and more easily be able to set and maintain prices at where they want. At least until they can offload and break most of it.

Two the memberships will be sold to normal people at only 1 per household and to bots that will get as many as they want. Prices for all those 6 products will be sold at what Topps considers market value. All those products have previous year products. Without some huge catalyst price will be set to where there is virtually no profit or a loss for buyers looking to sell. All public sales of each will be available for hours if not days. All or most of them with a lower cost per box and more available per order for the public than MC members.

The only people this is a win for are people that couldn't get a membership before. Those people must also not care about the prices and not be looking to sell anything. How many people in today's sports card world fall into this category? Less than 1%. There will be more people Topps won't allow to get a membership now that were members with multiple accounts for multiple years that they have banned from getting a single account that were collecting. Hasn't pretty much every member with multiple accounts received messages from all their accounts they aren't eligible for even 1 membership?

I was told, you can still use your account for getting a new membership, you just have to pay the 200, because your technically a new member. So if you want to continue as a member, just pay an extra 50.00

Fanatics is making product available to everyone by allowing only 1 membership per household. What's wrong with that

Everyone who has a topps account got the email to sign up for the 2023 membership...... all that tells me is the production will be through the roof for 2023 and they just want to make as much money as they can.....

there’s nothing wrong with it, the angst is that as of now they are saying you can’t even keep 1 if you had multiple memberships.

Everyone has always been able to sign up and they always limit the number of memberships.

I guess I'm in the minority but I think $150 is good enough in my book to renew. My only disappointment is no F1 or UEFA, but Topps has surprised us before.

My son and I each had an account. Being a minor, he lives with me so I broke their rule and both accounts are now banned from joining next year. Who wants half a set? Seriously? Not us. We're bummed but thats what we get for trying to live the thug life. Think I might have to kick him out now. He's dragging me down. lol FU topps. 2 accounts with my 1-2 box purchase of some releases buying history is NOT the issue.

Soccer this year sucked so can’t imagine that getting any better. I would say Star Wars sapphire, would be the best release as far as sapphire goes, but looked how bad the 1st release has tanked.

Topps/Fanatics could easily charge 300 plus for the 2023 membership and in fact they keep it under 200 just goes to show, even they know the club, isn’t what it used to be....

The time window is irrelevant. They are likely giving themselves more runway since a lot of accounts are banned.

Well I guess my money is still good for Topps on all my accounts.
Happy to report that some of us are allowed to keep our Memberships.
I received the renewal email on all my emails.
The question I have is should I still inform them and ask for it in writing? Or just let sleeping dogs lie?

From the email I got it says you cannot purchase a new membership.


We will be monitoring all members to ensure that they are acting in accordance with the terms & conditions. Any attempt to purchase a new membership slot may result in additional consequences.

Different emails, same delivery address.
I think I’ll leave it as is. I’m guessing they’ll block me when I try and renew? Who knows.

To be honest, I’m on the fence on the renewals… I’m thinking of keeping one account. Not sure the value will be there in 2023… but I’m a bit worried they might actually send the one set (not the factory one) with packs in a sealed box of sorts or something cool like that.

I thought it was always two days, after the initial year?

Or even one day?

How long was it before? I feel like it's always been short.
