No, they are selling out before they even come up for sale.

At this moment a set of the first 85 is worth 40-50K.....10 sets is a half million

Right now no.....A few days or week from now i'd say yes....A month from now....You could support a 3rd world country

He massaged back with a $199 offer and said "Absolutely Ill honor that price." Very cool of them to do that. I wont be buying anymore of the older cards, I snagged the Mays Saladeen and the Efdot Nolan Ryan. Aside from the Blake McGwire/ Thiele Jeter combo I bought from Topps, Ill just buy the combo from Topps from here on out.

The only other cards Id like to have are the Siff Ripken and the Saladeen Griffey but wouldn't pay what they are selling for. Id actually like to have the entire Saladeen run as his style has really grown on me but it will never happen.

Buy extra presales for $16. Sit on them for a bit sell them all and buy the previous releasss you need

I saw the jump from $25k to $45k in one day from one of orioles’ charts and I didn’t want to take the chance that someone would hit the BIN to be making money.

The Ermsy Trout has a market cap of what 6-9M now, are the 3k or so cards really worth that? What's the whole print run going to be worth 400M, 4B, 40B? At a certain point the price will correct.

40B

$40,000,000,000

This blows my mind. $12K spent on the Topps website over just the last few months is now worth half a million dollars. My mind just cant comprehend it.

This is really sick.

I'm sitting on 20 Jeter cards (#29 and #39); 5 Thomas #23; 5 Griffey #6 and five Griffey #25; 5 Mays #15; 3 Trout #4; 5 Trout #35; not to mention the 150 cards that are still "Processing."

Am I awake?

Good Christ, Blake McGwire just hit 199.99 BIN.

When does it end, for real?

Thanks...Just bought 5 Griffey/Shore with the coupon. Looking at Mays/Saladeen and Clemente/Grotesk. I can see this might be the start of a problem hahaha

Ok. so I have bben in contact with Castorpollux22 about the canceled sale because I have some cards I have been waiting on from him. His story sounds like it could be legit. I had the same thing happen to me last year. Had a canceled sale, and it got relisted. Honestly, I don't remember if ebay auto relisted it or not. It was a Topps Now award winner card, Verlander if I remember correctly. He started coming on strong. I was in the process of revising it and someone bought it. I apologized and told him I was revising the listing give me a minute. He said no problem and dropped a neg on me. If he said he had a problem, I would have just took the loss. Anyway, I will post his email here for everyone to make their own judgement. Like I said, he has delivered to me after prices have risen. Email to follow

Here's my spiel

Today I received a message from user stutecash Myles Stute asking if it was too late to cancel the Jamieson Henderson card he purchased for $104 on 5/20. Being that I am currently selling the card for over $300, and have not received them from Topps to ship anyways, I was all too happy to oblige. Unfortunately to send the refund ebay was being kind enough to relist the card for me, something I did not want done at $109 and had no obligation to do. While I tried to catch the relist and cancel it I was unable to. To make matters worse ebay relisted the card twice. The cards were purchased by ebay users Michael Mendelson kidmikey and Yukio S yukiyuki85. The money was immediately refunded and the situation explained. It seems like both were understanding. Unfortunately, I have since been told that crap was talked about me in a forum. Clearly the above situation is not the same as someone paying $109 for a card whose current value is $109, then waiting a day, a week, a month to be told their listing is cancelled and the cards value was now $200, $300, or more. So that is what really happened and I would love to know which of the above three painted a picture other than the one I have stated. I would then encourage you to go and ask the other two users not behind the story about me if my version of events line up with how it happened for them. When they confirm, maybe it will be a good lesson that information is only as good as the source providing it, and the individual who went and spread false information about me be put in their place about not attacking the dealers who are about to deliver Shore Gibsons for $50 buck purchase price when their current value is over 1 grand. This message is being sent to the three users listed above. Thank you ctcardexchange for having my back.

You know what I just realized as I typed my previous post to this thread?

The Topps points that you get with every purchase. Has anyone been using those?

Aside from what I see with the best being a coupon for $40 off what else is there?
