and is the first MLS card to print over 200. More because there are no other cards to buy for the flippers.

Only 180...I think that is like 9 people buying 20.

joejoemay · 12-09-2016, 10:37 AM

Well that was something...just saw two #5's up on eBay. $9.99 :-)

TimBuckTwo · 12-09-2016, 11:17 AM

Yesterday I "almost" saw this thread fall off the first page of postings. Usually it is in the top ten. LOL

On another note, I just received my first Lindor/Kluber dual auto from Topps. Very Nice! I like it.

More to come in the next two days I hope, 2nd L/K dual, Baez auto, Ross auto, Benzzo relic, Bryant auto and NLCS relic all on deck to hit my box.

I saw that too...with 7 cards out today it's actually a surprise that the thread isn't all a buzz

Says 160 now...

mlbexpert · 12-09-2016, 12:59 PM

My Bryant WS auto showed up.

#117 / 199

I know it's not as cool as #17, but I like the way it looks.

Fowler to the Cardinals ... Damn, I'm glad he's getting paid, but wish it were anyone but the Cardinals. He loves the NBA, how can he go somewhere without a basketball team!?

joejoemay · 12-09-2016, 01:43 PM

So working on my spreadsheet of 2016 Topps Now Knowledge and am wondering about #264...I came across this:

A Pair of 2016 Topps Now Baseball Variations Surface

It appears that there is at least 1 John version....

The guy listing it on eBay, is that the guy who sued Topps?

He can live in whatever city he wants, and only spends half his time there in-season.

joejoemay · 12-09-2016, 02:21 PM

He has a copy of the letter from Topps...might be the only one.

joejoemay · 12-09-2016, 02:24 PM

It's the most expensive thing he has for sale...and if he was just wanting the ERROR as the claim stated because he collects errors then why sell it?

If I had went through all that trouble I'd want more then $5K....Unless he has 20...then I'd sell one at a time sure. I'm going to wait and maybe call Topps and ask for mine

joejoemay · 12-09-2016, 02:28 PM

From what the letter says he got one.

"Enclosed is a variation of the Josh Harrison card you purchased compliments of the Topps Team."

This guy has at least 5 of them

2016 Topps Now #264 Josh Harrison Variation aka original ERROR card (read desc.) | eBay

okumeister · 12-09-2016, 02:37 PM

The people who bought the original card, all of us are getting this "variation" sent?

No idea...but Trinity has them and some other guy so I am going to guess we will all get one. Though I'm not sure...

I'm gonna email them anyways.
Seems unfair if they don't send to all the people who initially ordered the card.

joejoemay · 12-09-2016, 02:55 PM

Or maybe they are sending them to only the people who bought early (before the image changed)...not sure when I bought but it could be something they tracked. Now that would be interesting. Since the price is now at $100 vs $5K I am going to guess there are quite a few out there...or will soon be. I myself had the lowest correct version out there at $18.88 but have since removed it because I want to wait it out. The #364 has a 319 PR FYI

Not unfair if it was part of the lawsuit settlement.

Still unfair, that just means you'd have to sue to get it. I'd hope Topps was smart enough not to make that deal.

armstrong · 12-09-2016, 03:00 PM

I need to ask a serious question to everybody reading this. When you receive your topps now cards, and I'm talking mostly the higher end stuff, relics and autos, are you receiving them with wax / chrome blemishes? Or frequent scratches?

I ask this, because A LOT of mine (at least 50%) have severe scratches on the front or back and/or have some sort of weird blemish(s) that's part of the chrome. The new thing I've started to see recently is a white haze (or snow like effect) on the chrome of the card.

It's incredibly frustrating to pay the $$$$ we do and have these problems on the majority of the relics and autos I've ordered. I'm pretty pissed and frustrated.

I agree I would be a little miffed if they made a deal for just a few folks. I am betting we all get them equal to the number we bought.

The more I think about how they used the term "Variation", it makes me feel that they are sending the cards to only selected few people.

yrocks2001 · 12-09-2016, 03:23 PM

Why doesn't Topps just flood the market with the error by giving them all out so that they have a lot less value?
