Default Reddit user discovered they still had an eTopps account with a LeBron RC. It shipped.

I thought this was pretty incredible. Here's the initial post:

Haha, I saw that! very cool. Makes me wonder how many of these cards are out there. I know there is a stated print run of 10k, but true supply prob quite a bit less I would guess. Personally I love the etopps cards, some nicely designed and appealing cards imo.

I kinda wish I still had mine. I traded a BGS 9 at the 2019 National.

If this was Top Shot rules, that card would be worth a fortune given how low the serial number is.

Reddit > BO > IG > Discord

In that order.

I like the bballcard subreddit, people are generally pretty nice and positive on there.

Etopps was top shot if top shot was backed by a physical copy. It didn’t work then and it won’t work now.

Now you've got me curious...The problem is I can't remember my etopps login info and when I request a username I get an error. Oh well I guess.

I had my LeBron shipped last year. Only LeBron rookie I have.

Still have a lot of etopps cards in my portfolio but none really worth shipping.

Not really possible to have an auto in your portfolio unless someone got really lucky and got a free one from the rewards catalog, and then never paid for shipping.

As for the original topic of this thread, uh yeah, I hope so. Topps would be facing a hefty lawsuit if they didn't.

Yeah, they don't really have customer service. Shameful company.

etopps autos were signed and sold well after most of the cards were printed. it's almost like a buyback auto.

you had to have the card in your portfolio AND THEN pay to have it signed/shipped.
