Rubin got these boys going full Alejandro Jones on the Powerball hunt. Like an MLM of illuminati packout conspiracy theories.

I can see that garbage happening.
Has that happened before?!

He's setting the stage, mate. First you have to suggest something that the AI overlords then make happen.

If I pulled it, I would totally troll and not tell anyone (I mean the card is not gonna go down in value). Eventually I would maybe post some photos of it to a throwaway social media account to get people freaking out about who the owner is. Lol

If you hit the redemption, what's your move? (assuming you want the live card in hand to keep or sell)

Do you talk to Topps and get confirmation it's live before entering the redemption?

Blindly enter the redemption and cross your fingers it's live soon?

Each of those probably results in the live card being shipped to you. I know the vast majority of the time, there isn't an issue with not receiving an item but would you really chance it with something like this?

I'd probably see if I could get the card in person somehow. I'd also want to stay anonymous if possible.

Reach out to Topps, tell them who I agreed to sell the card to (giannis, goldin, etc) arrange for them to ship it directly to them. I'd have zero interest in actually handling/shipping the card.

Agreed.

Will this card appreciate over time (say when Lebron retires) or is there a fear that more combo autos pop up, devaluing this?

Surprised Topps shared the IG of the dad (kid for PR purposes) who pulled the 1/1, definitely not the most politically correct page lol it's funny as I always wondered what would happen if someone not PC won the "follow back" cards they put in baseball where the player has to follow you on socials.

Have all shipments been USPS? Can’t possibly be sending redemption that was knowing the value.

Can't be any worse than Fedex with regards to fraud.

Mine is going straight into the closet until someone pulls the auto. If nobody comes forward in a few weeks then maybe I’ll open it.

What's the difference between the Red and White Topps logos in the upper left corner?

I was wondering the same thing. In my 5 pack I had 4 red and 1 white logo. My white logo card has a few surface dings on it though.

Topps added (in their words) a RARE white logo and ULTRA RARE blue logo as variations of the base card.
