Probably trolling but if he showed you 50 different 3 box orders would you be surprised? I wouldn't.

I am sorry junior, but you apparently don't work for a living. I was online at 10 am pacific checking and nothing was available. I log in again 4 hours later and they are gone. I have things to do. Topps sucks ass when it comes to letting members know when they can purchase product.

Again, do you want a personal phone call? They sent an email yesterday and again today, and every release has been right around 2:00 pm.

It is 2:40 pm. currently on the West Coast. You really don't have a grasp on time zones apparently. I did get the email yesterday and logged in to check today. Nothing until it was over.

What is over? I can still add Finest Flashbacks to my cart. I won't complete the purchase since I already have my three though.

So you were shut out as a MC member? I though it was 3 guaranteed boxes for MC members

I have a grasp of time zones, and the only one that matters to me is the one I am in. The releases have been around 2:00 pm. That would be 11:00 am for you. Checking at 10:00 am and forgetting about it for four hours is your fault.

coach,

I am done arguing with you. working is my fault, I agree. I am sorry I disrespected you.

Others pointed me in a direction that let me make my purchase.

I hope you have a great day.

It's nice that they included mostly HOFers in the buyback autos, just lower level HOFers that have tons of autos already doesn't make this as awesome as it could've been.
Or as expensive as it could have been. You add those other guys and the price doubles.

Believe it or not, you CAN have a job that isn't 9-5....I know, I was shocked too!

The added cost of including all of the top guys would equate to a penny or two per box, and they could have easily sold for more than $55 a box on the back of including such iconic cards.

9-5 would be awesome. I am still unclear on the time zone part though.

I think you get the point, however.

Supposedly the first year you had awhile. Last year if you weren't already a member or don't check blowout baseball section daily you were sol. It was gone in less than a day. This year if Topps website can handle the traffic it will be gone in seconds even if they doubled the price.

Yup, there's several here on BO, myself included, who will pay a good $$$ just to join for the exclusive early release. I just hope the existing members don't get screwed with the price. Hopefully they get grandfathered into whatever price they are in. I'd pay up to $1,000 for a 1 year membership, I'm sure others will too

Don't worry. Bots will scoop it up in nanoseconds.

Can't wait to see MC memberships somehow going for 5x on ebay and the big breakers including them in their mixers after I'm somehow unable to purchase in the buying window.

Wanted to chime in that for the bowman sapphire and this release, I kept getting the "you're not signed in" error when I followed the link from the MC email. For the Finest pre-sale yesterday, I was at a field coaching so had to take a stab at buying with my phone from the dugout. I turned off private browsing in my iPhone's Safari, signed in, followed the link again, and was immediately able to purchase. I don't think it would have helped with the Sapphire release, because I was also trying on my computer (in multiple browsers), and still couldn't purchase, but something to remember for future releases if you're trying with your phone.
