That's what I'm hoping.

$112 for a $5 card is a sweet sale!

I’m guessing there are plenty more cards in that situation. One of jewcer’s recent group submissions here - which is due to pop in next two weeks - has one submitter with 20 Judges, 20 Ohtani and 10 Hoskins.

well it isn't $5.00. It costs money to have it graded.

With so many people returning cards demanding perfect examples from their orders, there will be many, many more PSA Gem Mint 10s hit ebay.

I wouldn't mind a PSA 10 and a BGS 9.5+ set at some point, but I won't be in a big hurry to put them together.

$780 dlvd - https://www.ebay.com/itm/2018-Topps-...EAAOSw0cJbGu9q

Not a huge ending... but let's see if this gets more people to jump on board.

"these 4 cards will grade at gem mint-maybe pristine"

"please note that it is not a guarantee that they will grade gem / pristine mint"

Did anyone else get cards #34-36 packaged individually?? LOL. I only the bundle every week, but although all of these invoices specifically say cards 34-36, they each came in their own box, shipped separately. Have we freaked out the Topps folks that they are going above and beyond, damn the excess waste. LOL

Make the stocks heavy like the original ones and they won't have to do all these shipping difficult.

I think they mean the stock from the original 1953 cards.

In their email reply to me they referred to last week's individual shipments as a widespread error so that seems unlikely to continue.

A widespread error? Who the hell is working there? You mean to tell me not one person spoke up and thought hey maybe mailing three cards in three separate envelopes is not the best idea. What about the manager on duty? Somebody? There has to be some kind of common sense. This makes my brain hurt. It’s really hilarious actually.

Got the shipping notice for cards 36-39. Only one so far, so maybe they’ll ship my 2 sets in 1 box. Wait and see, I guess.

Appreciate what you’re doing Jake, I received two cards from you today - they’re in fantastic condition.

Jake, imagine if each of the LS cards you ordered last week, all came individually wrapped/packaged/shipped, for each of the three players...

What would that even look like??!
