First Buzz: 2018 Topps Heritage baseball cards - Page 38

BO sold through 5 cases at $1300 fairly quickly. Will be interesting to see new price. Even a case on ebay went for $1270, although the buyer probably got $100 back in ebay bucks. These are taking off fast and will only go higher if Ohtani is healthy and impressive in Spring Training.

(Not to mention master sets selling for $450 with "just" a regular SP of Ohtani included.)

If prices go any higher I may just sell my case sealed and buy a few cards I really want lol.

Get on Gypsy Queen before it JUMPS..

mfisher27 · 02-14-2018, 10:26 AM

I'm not sure. I'm sure it will jump but resale on Gypsy TANKED really fast last year. That release just doesn't seem to hold any value.

Box prices have pretty much held firm though

Yeah, but I could see some of them getting called up midway through the year.

Brent needs to sell the cases! LOL

this is incredible!

hairysasquatch · 02-14-2018, 11:02 AM

Quite an astonishing turn of events. Still can't wait to break, whether or not I hit Ohtani's "additional, short-printed base card" or auto, or nothing associated with him.

A preview of the possible variations:

Topps Inception probably also will be hot now going forward. Anything that releases before Bowman.

mfisher27 · 02-14-2018, 11:15 AM

Seems outrageous. That release doesn't seem to hold value for more than a week or two after release and didn't seem to rebound like Heritage does after the flood.

So my two cases is now one. Distr said he got cut from 200 to 85.

Another one is Tribute. There has been zero movement since solicitation & BO has it priced just a bit above distributor pricing.

real funny how these distributors are NOW advising of cuts?? I ordered 30 cases & was told that I was cut to ten well before Christmas.

Jmort23 · 02-14-2018, 11:23 AM

Cool error set would be like the “batboy picture instead of Aurelio Rodriguez” in 1969.

he lied

hairysasquatch · 02-14-2018, 11:25 AM

Revolutions to the marketplace:

1) buying direct from distributors no longer seems guaranteed
2) rampant preselling of sets pre-checklist likely to end
3) wax prices reaching such highs that people consider selling sealed
4) dogs and cats living together?

cj828282 · 02-14-2018, 11:26 AM

So strange because I purchased two cases from BO for $1150 on Monday and I thought that was high. I would like to say I saw the price increase coming but I didn't.

Yeah, just more funny business. All indication is that production is up, but all of these distributors are getting cut, and apparently are now being cut multiple times. Right...

Yep. I’ve known for over 2 months. These next 2 weeks are going to test the relationships between a lot of LCS’s and their long time customers.

Not just the next two weeks for some LCS's. Happen to me last year starting with Topps Chrome. I haven't bought anything since. I would normally buy 15-20 cases a year of various products.

I think he meant to say he sold 115 cases to Blowout 😁

And seemingly cut at every price increase. Very odd.
