Yep... It's all or nothing... buy all 50 or get out, says Topps...

Not sure why anyone would buy this yet... especially with NO CHECKLIST?

If there were a lesser price point, definitely. But I have no interest in investing in that much 1st ed

Same here. I’m out too. No thanks at $750.

I thought there were 24 packs in each box. How is Topps selling it for 50 packs in a box? Is this like a Jumbo? What am I missing?

That's the $750 question!

Lots of tax, though.

I need to see a CL before I decide anything. Of course, they might sell out before that happens.

Something tells me they'll send you 2 sealed boxes, and two loose packs.

Well that was fast. Unless they restock the supply, I'll just stick to singles as planned.

No it's not, just not linked on the main Boxes and Packs page

I have a 10% off coupon, but with the tax, that's still $725. Whew, I just don't know about that, esp after they ended up sending me all loose packs for 2020 Draft 1st ed...

Odd that they are 50 count boxes on topps. The picture houdini posted looks like the standard 24 count box.

Never mind - weird, I refreshed after the note about sellout but still saw it live, then just tried again and now I see the note. Oh well, decision made easier!

Wow, that went faster than last year, even at that price point

Yeah, it is. Try adding it to your cart and you'll get a "this product is out of stock message."

I'm glad Topps made my decision for me. I was about to buy one and I have a feeling I'd be losing money on it.

Bought a box, I don't have a lot of worries about the checklist in the present as we've already seen a few top 5 picks. I'm curious to see how they'll come packaged mostly.

Have to wonder if the odds are different for the 50 pack boxes.

I'll be interested to see if they end up packing like Jaypers thinks, 2 24 pk boxes and 2 loose packs. Would be a very Topps thing to do.

I get the draw on 1st Edition, but I'd prefer spending the same money on the Chrome versions. Haven't really kept track of past sales to know whether it is better to have one over the other. $750 is just too rich for my blood.

Well, for what it's worth, when it comes to the big names, the base 1st editions from last year do sell for more than the base Chromes, and the parallels also fetch pretty good rates.

Got it. Suspected as much. To each their own I guess.

Oh yeah, I mean I'd rather save my money for the real thing, don't get me wrong. The odds are just so much better in the main product for hitting something that will actually be worth real money.
