Yesterday I bought a WalMart value box and got 2 MCG codes, and to my surprise one got me a 2010 topps Strasburg. Since yesterday I have had so many trade offers for it I cant hardly look at them all. Many of them include 52s and 50s cards with numerous other cards. I added up the values in one trade offer which included numerous 50s cards to be over 100$. My question is isn't this the same card you can get in a set at Walmart. Isn't it like a 15$ mass produced card?

Nope, it's a variation pose, sell it on ebay and get multi hundreds for it

Well the last one on eBay didn't even sell for $150 so I wouldn't say "multi-hundreds", but yes, it's a more valuable card than the normal #661.

It is also the one that you can have auto'ed for $300. It maybe something worth looking into. You can purchase the auto if you take delivery of the card, then I think it will give you an option to purchase the auto.

Is this card also a prize card where I can get free shipping on all my other cards? Do I have to send for it now or can I wait till the end of the promotion and still get it signed? Did topps make more of these than the number of cards available for autos. Is all the info on this card on the mcg site and I'm just not finding it? Thanks for the info in advance!
