I was about to ask the same thing. That is what I am seeing. I have been at work all day, so I am just now looking, and don't know if I am missing something or what?

So glad I went back and redid it, the email they sent today let you click a link, and it took you to a page saying you're entered, but I never received a confirmation email. Went to my account and registered the normal way, and got a confirmation email.

I don’t see the prices of the membership or the products increasing significantly, or at all. Topps is much more business savvy than some of BO gives it credit for.

That may be the case if card values weren't growing exponentially along with the number of new buyers.

If Topps sticks with the same club next year, they will miss out on new member fees and have a ton of angry fans who didn't get in. Why would the company want either of those things just to maintain the appearance of loyalty? The products sell themselves not due to any buzz owing to the club's existence.

The while point of a club is exclusivity. Without it it looses much of its luster. If it expands the club too far, that could also be interpreted as disloyal. Topps sells out every online release with or without MC so the membership fee is just gravy for them. Printing xxx sets of cards for members from preexisting designs, most of which would probably have never seen the light of day for a wide release, and affixing some autographed stickers is not a big expense. Topps knows exactly what they are doing.

Twice now I have entered the raffle and twice now the confirmation e-mail I receive contains someone else's e-mail address. Does this happen to anyone else?

Is there a link to the raffle? I did not receive an e-mail and don't see a link on the website for the product entry.

Just shows when you think Topps finally has a clue as to what they're doing they will likely screw it up anyway.

Hope they don't send purchase links (or however they end up doling out the product) to the wrong accounts lol.
