Hahahaha!

But actually, if Matt only got 1 in 20 you'd need to purchase at least maths.

At this point I'd much rather spend more on a print.

This is why I hope Topps is firing up its random number generator. If there's a "1 in 20 chance", the following people should have the same chance of getting a foil:

Goofus: 1 order with 2 10-packs
Gallant: 2 orders with 1 10-pack each
Shinjoy: 20 orders of 1 card

Grotesk, while I had been collecting him I've trailed off, didn't pick up the Mays and now might not get the Mattingly. Siff only have gotten the players I am collecting, and not collecting Clemente.

Rivera is my favorite card of the day but will pass on it as well.

Any other Grotesk fans out there from early on that have died off as well?

yea, you CAN "pull" one without buying 20, but i am lead to believe that you are GUARANTEED one for every 20 you order

To do so, all you need to do is start filtering, sorting, or both. A form will appear underneath the filters. Just enter a Username, a List Name, and click Submit. Upon successful creation of the list, a popup will be displayed containing a link to your custom list.

The resulting page is static and cannot be overwritten.

List creation works on desktop and mobile, however, drag-and-drop is not supported on mobile yet.

Enjoy the rest of your Sunday!! Let's see those lists!

Here's my first list...

Been having fun making my lists and ranking cards! Thanks so much for building this!!

If anyone else is having fun with this, buy GumStick some beers!

Easy, just one! Fire up your internets and go find the card you want on ebay. None of these will be SP enough that you can't find one there. I'd bet dollars to donuts that it would be cheaper off ebay than it would be for you to ensure acquisition of one from Topps.

Did you order one copy and you got your base plus foil? Or two and got one of each?

I bought 31 Siff Trouts all same order and no foil. Even looked through them 3 times to see if I just wasn't seeing them right

He's really been up and down the entire set. I love some of his cards, but haven't decided if I'll complete a set.

I sorta like his last three, but the colors haven't been great (Mays and Mattingly too dark, Griffey too blue), so I haven't been able to see details on the Grotesk people or the raised 3-D lettering. I focus on the font and Grotesk people in his cards, not the player image. But, his 4 previous cards were mind-melting.

I'm still waiting on some orders, but I currently have 8 Siff Trout Foils that will be shipped out to customers as soon as I get to their orders and if they match up with that particular card being pulled.

The Foils will NOT be in addition to the base card. They will be replacing that particular base card in the customers' order(s).

There will be other Foils in inventory waiting for later purchases of base cards to be shipped out in place of those particular base cards too.

No, I did not beat the odds, so no sense in asking, but as I stated above, I'm still waiting on orders.

why not? it appears Topps is sending them in addition to the base that was paid for, no?
