Just a fun thought. If you had no Topps project 2020 cards and wanted to jump in today with $1,000, what would you do: Or maybe had an extra $1,000 ?

1. Don C Thomas BIN $129 PR 11,969
2. Don C Ripken $18.99 BIN Catches you up on his set PR 41.392
3. Siff Ripken BIN $175 PR 2369
4. Naturel Gwynn $119.99 PR 2319
5. Naturel Clemente $175 PR 1819
6. Chang Robinson $129 BIN PR 2741
7. Oldmanalan Koufax $150 PR 2488
8. Rivera Vides $129 PR 2452

Yo Sophia Chang and JK5 fans... anyone know how to get on their websites? Where are they posting the passwords?

This #$%^ is like a GD geocaching adventure

Don't forget one of those popular artists has made controversial tweets about the police.

Not worthy of a response, but glad you won't show up.

This is fun! From three different angles:


1. Investment: x1 Ermsy Trout

2. Bang for buck: Buy 50 cards in future releases with smartpost shipping - have roughly 300 to choose from

3. Current cards on market: Complete the JK5 series to date

Yeah, catching up on JK5 might be the way to go if you enjoy that style...

If you want a set of 20 from one artist, Don C is easiest to get in on. If you want 20 of one player and aren't particular, Jeter is probably easiest one to complete.

Smartpost is a total crapshoot. I've heard some people getting their cards super fast, like almost as fast as paid shipping.

Others are complaining about it taking weeks, i.e. may still be waiting on the Baller Ichiro. Haha

They'll usually eventually get there.

Mine have, but it does take a little while.

I concur. I concluded the same and have a Jeter and a DonC run.

I wanted a Taylor set too... the Henderson was tough, but the rest aren't bad. I think all the Taylors will look dope together.

A Griffey run can be had as well... save for the Saladeen...which is a pricier get.

I have a couple like that too. As soon as I figure out how to open the damn snaptite knockoffs my Trouts were in.... I'll de-hair mine as well. Unless maybe that adds value?

I don't want the ebay return bc "this says direct from Topps but clearly there was hair removed from this case. Please accept return"
