TwinsJake moves Griffey to $30

VerY sMArT.

Just boggles the mind that people aren't buying straight from Topps. 2 hours ago they could have all they wanted for AT LEAST $10 less

The only others I didn't get that Id really like are the Saladeen Griffey, Blake Henderson, and Siff Brett.
Siff Ripken is the best looking card in hand. Siffs cards in general are really attractive and actually feel like "art"

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

Some but not all of this def has a "cool factor" that hasn't existed to the same extent in older releases. Plus the worst player is Doc who still has a big following.

Agreed. Siff has some great appeal IMO. His cards are phenomenal.

Feels like groundhog day. Been watching TwinsJake immediately change price to $30 ($25 before the last spike) and continue to up the price as the days pass. And yet they keep selling!

The non baseball nerds already know about the product from their favorite artist and are likely buying from Topps or a presale.

If you don't buy straight from Topps, they should at least wait until the PR's come out before buying on eBay. At least the $10 paid for some new information.

Even if he gets 10% off every order after having to probably pay tax, shipping to buyers, shipping supplies he is still losing money. The only way he is making money is if he gets 10% off every order, no tax, free shipping, a deal with ebay where he pays less than $2.50 to ship, pays ebay and paypal fess of 7% or less instead of 13%, and gets 5% back on credit card purchases. What are the odds he gets all that?

Ripken is IROn says right on the card. I hoped he would do all the mettalic ores. Unsure of the colors of this one in the background. Copper and platinum will be fire. Expecting platinum trout.
