Shipping on the magic box


Shipping: Please be aware of the process of JK5 receiving, packaging and shipping back your order. We will keep you updated via email.

Why would he ship back the order? He’s not getting this from Topps. Only thing I can think of is that he hasn’t made the cards yet

Right now my plan is 1 card from every player as I came in too late to do any artist run other than Don C (who I'm not a fan of). Let's just say it won't be the Griffey I was planning on keeping lol. But I just don't see any way I can look at myself in the mirror if I were to cowardly rely on eBay's BS policies and I hope other's feel the same. Contracts are contracts/deals are deals, just gotta man up.

I think in the end, the biggest push to buy the cards is going to be the art....and the rarity of 1-80.

Collect the set, collect the player, collect the artist, collect the best looking cards. There's a lot ways to collect for many different people.

This set is iconic. How that equates $$$ wise remains to be seen. I'm bullish.
She's not the only one, Don C is guilty too but there is a long road ahead. As for the fanny packs, we know that Blake and Baller are rocking P2020. Beck and Efdot are as well. I just wanted to mention the less obvious artists.

It's a loserthink mindset, all due respect moss. If you go in saying "I'm in" but are negative on how you look at things you're going to fail.

Why will you fail? Because you're constantly looking for failure.

I hope she is, but I'm not seeing the engagement out of her compared to the others. In this day in age she needs to be all over social media about this and she isn't. That's a mistake.

Who else is bad at social media? Can’t really find any of JK5, but I’m sure there is more

Making StockX look more appealing by the second.

Losing money is kinda my thing. I could tell you stories for hours on end. I'm sure I'm not the only one but it does seem to happen quite a bit. Whether I'm correct or incorrect in the long run I lose.

Unless something changes for me even if it's only 1 card I plan on buying every card for the rest of Topps Project. I will probably never buy any of the ones 1-80 that I don't have unless they drop very low. I can't justify paying an obscene amount for a card I coulda bought weeks ago for $15.

Thinking about it now, I think that's a cologne box...haha, kidding. $155k is a lot of money. I'm sure he'll get them made quickly for the $25K its going to cost.

Sooooo interesting that these start to tank almost instantaneously once they are listed on Stock X....

I cannot wait for the overnights to run the numbers - 10% drop today.... similar if not 25% today... bottom should be forming I suspect.

Crazy to think a lot of people can still turn $20 in 40, 100, 240 pretty easily and because it's not $1200, 2k now they are just like eff it I am out, hobby is dead...

Maybe in other walks of life. When it comes to cards or stocks it doesn't matter if I'm positive or negative about it. The result will be the same.

Yup. If I bought a 2020 Bowman 1st Chrome auto of some prospect for $20 and was able to sell it for $100 one month later, I would be THRILLED.

I'm only selling in hand, so it's a match made in heaven.

I've really only f'd up on one card, but I'm collecting Chang's run, so I think in the end it'll be alright.

The rest I'm in for $20 to $40. So the peaks and valleys don't phase me.

Sure, I've gone from "I got down payment on a house" money to "I did pretty darn good" money, but that's the market.
