I started this morning. Here is my haul:

Trout Ermsy
Gibson Chang
Thomas Baller
Mays JK5
Ichiro JK5
Brett Mister Cartoon
Mattingly Jamieson
2x Trout Thiele
3x Trout Rochester
3x Gooden Baller

I need a drink. But I got all of these below current market, so that's good. Need to take like an hour off though

Ermsy Trout auction at $1,875 with ~13min to go.

Since the $1,900 auction, a $1,980 BIN went off the board.

The low BIN stands at $1,999.99.

Somethings gotta give.

1,999.99 give me $2,000.00?

And there it us, $2,025 while I'm still typing....

Every single card I’ve checked has went up exponentially since this morning. This is just insane to watch. I can’t even imagine how many times the same cards have presold. This is going to be a mess once Topps gets around to shipping them.

I did all my buying before this weekends massive explosion. Now I’m just sitting back watching and/or looking for absolute steals.

And by the way, even though I keep track of the FedEx tracking, mine ultimately get delivered to me via USPS.
Yes, FedEx SmartPost (like UPS SurePost) gets accepted by FedEx and delivered to a local USPS hub. USPS always makes the final delivery. The slowest and cheapest shipping option (although eBay gives good shipping discounts)

look at things this way...

new to P2020? Love (player/artists name here)?

well, you are in luck!

(player/artists name here) has ~15 cards left to collect from Topps!

but, but, but .... im missing the first five and cant afford the super high pricing!

thats ok, think of it this way.....

youll have 15 of the 20. *if* the set becomes something special, you'll have 75% at SRP

if the set bombs, you can then go and pick up the missing five and own a set that you can be proud to own

Grabbed a Thiele Koufax tonight and I think I’m done on the secondary market for now. I spent way too much this weekend! Looking forward to new releases tomorrow though. I sold my wife on the fact I can sell everything I bought for profit but I’m falling in love with the cards and think I just want them in my collection. Going to have to start selling other cards off.

Player selection has a lot to do with this too. Topps did a nice job! Something for everyone.

It's fun watching the madness.

I only have 15 in hand and roughly 20 yet to be delivered..... I wish I bought more of the early cards... I'm happy with what I have.

Well said, Eric! This is a pleasant marathon that goes until December. Enjoy your collection and Keep Learning everyone. A wise man reminds me of that with his great videos! Keep it up!
