It seems like another attempt at fleecing with some faked up hype.

Agreed, trying to squeeze as much juice as they can.

Honestly, how many Caitlyn Clark autos can they put out and keep up any semblance of top level pricing? Once she goes into the WNBA, are people still going to be chasing her cards and paying top dollar for them? I'm all for women's sports to get some hobby love too but it just seems like we're not there yet.

Here's an article with a little more info.

Drops at 3:30pm

Quote:
All cards will incorporate NCAA March Madness logos and other intellectual property. In each eight-card pack, are six base cards, one guaranteed autograph and one guaranteed parallel card. Among the cards fans will be chasing: a dual-autograph card featuring likely repeat National Player of the Years Clark and Edey - there will be one rare dual autograph card every 10 packs - and dual autograph cards such as: Clark/Angel Reese, Reese/Hailey Van Lith and Sheppard/Dillingham.

Making waves with players from the worst incoming NBA rookie class in years.

They probably pay $30 an auto. Sell for $100 profit.

Honestly, the women are the main reason to chase this set IMO.

Pass. I wish they'd shut down the whole 'NOW' line. Doesn't seem to bring much value outside of super saturating the market and trying to create even more FOMO. Reminds me of my kids, always trying to go 100% all the time. Thanks Topps.

Topps has to dump as much Clark stuff before the Panini exclusive…they’ll probably issue an autograph card for every tournament game she plays before 4/1

What's interesting is she hasn't been in a set since 2023 TC McDonalds AA. Does she have an exclusive deal?

Some of the Now stuff is ok! I like the fact that there are full signatures available for some players. Those certainly look better than the half ass signatures that most put out. I think for big moments, it's fine..Most if not all of the Caitlin stuff is very limited so it's not like they are flooding the market. And Panini will do the exact dame when given a chance.

Imagine you buy this and get an Armando Bacot auto.

They definitely will flood the market. Caitlin’s autos are still somewhat limited but Panini is a dying company and so they will have her sign until she has writers cramp to wring every last dollar

Let's say you buy 20 sets for $2,800 and get exact one auto and one parallel of each player - do you even make your money back after taxes and eBay fees?

Anyone else having trouble being able to access their reward points? My balance will not display to cash any in.

Agree. Just buy the men's auto you want from the people chasing Clark.
