disagree there Broski, Ermsy Trout is the Adam Bomb of Project 2020

If you aren't overwhelming enthusiastic and driving prices on this, you're an enemy of the state

I want the entire set. I’ll have 1065 to choose from. And I’m confident I’ll get it cheaper than MSRP. If I pay more, I’m okay with that as well.

if youve not made a purchase of something, your voice carries less weight

especially for a $17.25 product

I can't disagree, broham.

I mean, I wouldn't kick it out of bed. But the Beck PR....unobtanium.

While I agree that attempting to censor naysayers makes us fanbois look dumb, there really isn't a reason (other than an agenda) for someone who has ZERO skin in the game to be posting. That's just me though.....

This thread may still be going hopefully we can help you fill the holes in your set at $15 a card and $2 for one touch and $5 for a minty box.

Cept for the shore griffey should be what 8$ for a card by then?

Exactly.

so you are trashing it to drive up fear, and lower prices, so you can buy it later

We get it, you don't like the project and haven't bought any and you think it's going to crash....we understand your point, wow.....

looks like twinsjake sold 528 griffey's at $17.25 (presell price).

he has currently sold 107 ripken's and 66 rivera's.

based on some rudimentary math i predict a PR of < 35k ripken's and < 20k rivera's.

I've been playing this smart. Haven't freaked out like some and bought anything, other than a $38 Beck Ripken, from anywhere but topps.com.

What I have been able to do is turn about a $260 out of pocket expense into almost $1500 in two weeks. I'll take that.

If you bought an earlier card from Jake, do not cancel your Shore Griffey order.

Yes, wise one. I control the market on this.

100K Griffey’s

Less than 60,000 sales of anything labeled Trout Update in the history of eBay.

I’ll take my chances buying the set down the line. It’s laid off for every other print on demand set in Topps history, and if I pay more for it that’s fine too!

Still waiting on a PM for a bet. I’ll give you the same deal I gave Alex.
