Wanted to throw that out there for the people who were skeptical on their boxes and the issues topps has given customers.

I got my box. Took forever to checkout but in the end, the box was purchased.

I will be ripping as soon as I get it. I selected Smart Post since I ain't trying to "flip" it. I'll open the box whenever it gets here. Hope I get some numbered Trout or other Angels players!

Got a box!

Make sure you check all boxes in your emails. Mine ended up under promotions, so I wouldn't have even seen it if I didn't look there.

anyone not working just go incognito and login in to topps then click email link

Non MC 2 for 2.

I got the email and holy crap I can't believe I just spent $250 on a box of cards.

That you can sell for $750. Treat it as an investment and enjoy the profits.

2/2 now with raffles. If you thought you did not get selected at 3:30, double check. My email wasn't sent until 4:45 and I didn't notice it until now since I stopped checking.

Keep an eye on the order in your Topps account. In case you didn't see those posts, some Finest Flashbacks orders were mistakenly canceled by Topps and some people who didn't catch it right right away were left empty handed.

No luck here, didn't get Flashbacks either though I did get 2 boxes in the 2nd chance thing even though I didn't get an email then either

Is it sad that I am debating whether I should actually move forward with purchasing?

I got swing and miss. I logged out. Clicked link to sign in and it took me to my account. I searched Ben baller and it came right up. Try that

[cjmccreary]

If you didn’t get an email, is there somewhere in My Account you can backdoor it?

Didn’t get an email, missed out on sapphire and FF. Also, it looks like the USPS lost a $150 Lamar Jackson rookie I sent. The hobby is not being very good to me lately.

Wish they provided this option as some don't even get the emails (even if raffle winners). But from what I know, no there isn't.

Got a box, nice!

How do you know you won if you didn’t get an email?

[Archimedes]

I didn't get a box, and I'd still take this raffle system over the old method any day! Now, if Topps could just start doing Dutch auctions, we'd be all set.

Buy it and post it on ebay for $550. Someone will snag it up quickly.

It’s defiantly dropping that’s for sure. Potential returns for those earlier sales. What a game collecting has become...

Probably because everybody is winning the raffle. I thought I had seen some where that these were limited to 8300 boxes. Doesn’t seem like nearly enough. Is there any info on production amount?

It will correct in time. It will drop down as everyone tries to sell out the gate. But in a few weeks to a month after delivery it will climb back up. Slow game always wins.

So how many eBay cancellations will there be? Project 2020 Memorial Day weekend all over again.

Not sure if the pack odds have been mentioned, but looks like any of us opening should expect at least 6 parallel cards, 2 inserts, a die-cut diamond card. In addition, with (tough) odds, are autographs:

The product offers 200 base cards and the base parallels average 1:4 packs:

2020 Topps Chrome Ben Baller Base Parallels Breakdown
Green Refractor - #/99
Blue Refractor - #/75
Gold Refractor - #/50
Orange Refractor - #/25
Red Refractor - #/5
SuperFractor - 1/1

Perhaps most striking is the 15-card Ben's Diamonds Die-Cuts insert with a large gem background. These average one per box (1:24 packs).

Another insert choice is 1985 Topps Baseball (1:12 packs). Both inserts feature Gold Refractor (#/50), Orange Refractor (#/25), Red Refractor (#/5) and SuperFractor (1/1) parallels.

In addition, the Autographs set includes Gold Refractor (#/50 - 1:403 packs), Orange Refractor (#/25 - 1:804 packs), Red Refractor (#/5 - 1:4,000 packs) and SuperFractor (1/1 - 1:19,200 packs) editions.

Baller is also selling a small number of autographed boxes on his website (BBDTC.com) for $999.99.

2020 Topps Chrome Ben Baller Baseball boxes cost $250 each and are sold through Topps' online store. Per the listing, the cards begin shipping on September 11, 2020.
