Are these even worth the rewards points to purchase? Seems like they're completely print to order so the odds could be fairly long for parallels and autos. Anyone like these from prior years?

Personally I find nothing print to order is "worth it" unless you are buying as part of a PC.

If something is actually sought after and in demand, the print run will be through the roof and the parallels will be impossible.

On lower print runs - well there is a reason it's low. No one cares about it to begin with.

I'll only buy print to order products to fill in PC gaps and never to invest.

True but you have to spend your rewards points on something. Unless you sell them. Also not all Topps Now stuff is print to demand, Road to Opening Day sets for example have a defined print run. This does not appear to have a defined print run which could be good or bad depending on how many orders there are.

I spend my points on the autograph and relic releases throughout the year, as well as the postseason stuff.

In 10 years is anyone going to care that Trout hit 2 homers in a game on April 27th? Or that Corbin Burns threw 8 shutout innings on July 2?

Maybe if you PC that person, otherwise a lot of the daily accomplishments seems to be lacking.

I'll buy milestone cards though, no hitters or big round number milestones like 3000 hits. Those seems to have staying power.

That makes a lot of sense. I never know what to do with my points.

Personally, I didn't before and won't again. Even if a PC guy was in it, I have so little interest in the release overall that I'd just buy singles if it was a must-have for my PC guys.

I did, however, buy the Top 100 Prospects. But I think they guaranteed autos on those, so maybe they weren't print-to-order.

I know some guys buy the WS champs set with points. Ends up $10 per set. And they then flip On the bay for as much as what they retail on topps.com for.

Even if they mentioned it being on-card, the auto choices are thin other than Soto. If it’s a sticker, even worse.
Wander Franco parallel may be the only good card in the set and getting one is at long odds.
Pass,
Vinny (bought last years)

Anybody know if the auto list is final or will Topps continue adding to it?

Autos are final.

These aren't stickers...so expect packs in July/August or something?

[QUOTE=Fsegaud;18093168]These aren't stickers...so expect packs in July/August or something?[/QUOTE]I don’t have last years info but usually they mention “on card” autos. Just add my doubting Topps to the gamble overall.
Vinny :)!

[QUOTE=THammers;18092235] I never know what to do with my points.[/QUOTE]

Me, too.

I have almost 25,000 points and nothing to really use them for.

I could probably purchase one pack at a time and use a $20.00 coupon ten times for ten packs, but I have no interest in this product.

Road to opening day sets. There’s 189 wander parallels in the rays set. $10 for a chance at that isn’t bad, plus you get the base card with a max PR of 2985(assuming a sellout).

Definitely something to consider. Thank you.

Ended up purchasing three sets (with coupons); cost me $31.95.

Thing is, I was always buying the Yankees sets, but not this year.

I really can't go wrong buying three of the TB Rays sets for $31.95 and a guaranteed Wander base card and maybe a parallel.

I used up over 20,000 points and bought 16 sets just now (2 sets x 8 orders).

Also, good thing that the website now reminds you about unused rewards/codes in your account if you have them, when trying to redeem a new coupon code.
I had 2 x $40 coupon codes that were unused from previously redeeming.
I probably redeemed to buy some popular autograph card and ended up being unused due to the card selling out before I could buy.

I am going to cry if I don't hit a single Ohtani, Trout, or Wander Franco (which could very well happen with just 16 sets).

Does my math work out on this set?

6053 Packs = 60530 cards
189 Autos x 5 players 945 cards Autos are possible 1:6.4 packs?
189 parallels x 10 players 1890 cards Parallels are 1:3.2 packs?
Approx 57695 base cards/100 or 577 per on the print run?

I believe the parallels and autos are on top of the 10 base cards you get so PR ends up being 605 each base.

I got a bunch of topps fedex notifications. I think these are on the way

I've seen some on Ebay already...saw a Buehler base for sale. I thought maybe that was a quick delivery in Florida...was an account in Portland Oregon! :eek:
