Yeh but if you’ve checked his social media, there’s dozenssssss of kids who would jump off the Brooklyn bridge if he said to.

It's possible that they were predominantly flippers. It's also possible that his artist fans bought the card without having any interest in his Topps cards.

But 999 is a pretty good number.
King Saladeen had a limited run puzzle the week before that sold out in 5 minutes. He has a HUGE following.

A lot of the people current building various sets will drop out either due to:

a) attention/cash being diverted towards other releases/products
b) dwindling cash flow
c) boredom

Five years from now, a lot of these will be sitting in people's closets, and people will be wondering why they spent $100+ on many of them.

Collectors' attention spans are VERY short

Yes people are saving their $600 stimulus for two weeks to buy trout ermsy



Yes all the cash is getting diverted to bowman 2020 and topps 2020 series 2.


Yes say they have dwindling cash flow yet say they are spending all their “stimulus” your talking in circles a bit.

Collectors attention spans are not short, they have terabytes of “maybe worthless today” data. But every bit is important. drive by night flippers is who you are referring to with the short attention.

If an eBayer refuses to pay a won auction- is there any recourse or are we just SOL as sellers?

Ebay won't take the money out of their bank accounts, if that's what you mean. Yes, you would file a non-paying bidder report, get your FVF credit, and relist. Hopefully you get a higher result next time.

SOL from what I've seen. You can give him a strike after a few days of not paying and you get your fees back, but that's all that I know of.

Remember when APs were $99? Looks like Topps decided to go in the opposite direction as many of us hoped by incorporating the APs into the print run, and instead raised the price again.

Look for surprise Mike Trout Auto's!

For every Mike Trout card, 10 hand numbered autograph cards will be randomly inserted into the print run. *The autograph version will replace the base card.

Can I charge a restocking fee even if it wasn’t mentioned in the listing?
