I have no idea how smart post works or if it even goes through the PO
There's also no way to change the shipping address after the fact? I'm currently out of state so this might be a bit of a problem.

What is going on that some people are already buying and I get nothing on the page except a link to the archive?

Made the switch to Wheeler as well. Would prefer to spend with him over the other presellers.

Speaking of pre-selling...what's a fair turnaround time to expect delivery?

+1 week after Topps?

I've been buying from a pre-seller with an excellent reputation around here and it's been well over 1 month since I've received any cards. I'm owed a lot of cards starting from the Big Baller Frank Thomas...

Been trying to reach out with no answer, either.

Thank you, I appreciate that.

I wasn't wanting to get into the pre-sale game, but after seeing so many sellers back out of transactions due to prices climbing, I wanted to curb that as much as I could as I will never back out of a transaction unless there is an uncontrollable situation. And hearing from so many buyers wanting to use reward points on P2020 cards...I had to try something to help everyone out. Thankfully, I was able to create a way for them to do that through my site.

Was looking at some numbers today and surprised me only 41 cards so far have had a print run of 10k or more. Since I had some time, here's a breakdown by player and artist.

Players:
Trout: 6
Jeter: 4
Griffey/Robinson: 3 each
Ripken/Mays/Ryan/Koufax/Thomas/Henderson/McGwire/Clemente/Gibson: 2 each
Williams/Brett/Ichiro/Gwynn/Gooden/Rivera/Mattingly: 1 each

Artists: Baller: 5
Thiele/Don C/JK5: 3 each
Shore/Ermsy/Chang/Blake/Efdot/Fucci/Siff/Oldmanalan/Cartoon/Vides/Saldeen/Rochester: 2 each
Naturel/Beck/Taylor: 1 each
Grotesk: 0

I ship within 1 business day of receiving from Topps. There might come a time when I have to make that within 2 business days, but I don't foresee ever needing to take more time than that.

People will need to keep in mind though that sometimes someone will get cards from Topps on a certain day, and others get the same card(s) a week or more later. I don't really know why that is other than possibly the obvious - location and expedited shipping structures.

Once I figure my Blog out on the website, I'll keep people informed the same day cards arrive, so they'll have an idea when they can expect shipments from me.

Anyone that made a purchase through me, if you're willing to allow me to refund you and re-process it, I would be extremely appreciative. Shopify payments is withholding all of my money until october. Paypal will only withhold the payments until you receive your item. As you can imagine, there is a lot of money exchanging hands between me and MLAM and financing this for 3 months because Shopify is withholding money is not ideal.

tl;dr Shopify sucks

I also LOVE the ability to prepay for cards that havent even come out yet. Ive already purchased the bundle for 131-140 so its kinda like Russian Roulette to figure out what I bought. Adds another level of fun.

I think it's fun too!

Plus, if the number I have set aside doesn't sell out when the cards are no longer available at Topps, I don't raise the price on the 10-card bundles, so people are able to get a great deal picking up the older ones. That is...until they're sold out.

Thanks for the update and thank you for answering all of my questions before hand. I can't wait for the blue to come back.

I guess that puts you in a POP of 1. That's assuming no one tries to back out or file a charge back like a million people have before if the cards go down to $5-$15 a card.

Was getting a lot of my cards moved for display. One thing most probably already know but the Ultra Pro & BCW One Touch Holders seem to mention UV protection. The snaptites dont mention that anywhere I have seen. Just a thought depending on how you are displaying the cards. I am mainly using UV protected Display Cases but may switch those snaptites out anyway.

There’s a finite amount of every card- even less day by day as more get signed, lost, given to kids, destroyed out of anger.......everything cheap is being bought up now, prices will reset higher, and then the game continues.

Don’t be the one sitting there with little to no cards at the newer higher prices in a short while...

This is true on low pop cards. How is there ever going to be an end in site to supply for a card with a print run of over 25k? Over 50k? These will always be available and there will always be someone looking to dump them. On the reverse the low pop cards I think will always be in demand. The issue is virtually everyone is holding a ton of the cards with no resale value and/or way overpaid for the low pop ones. Very few are sitting pretty on paying $20 or less for a ton of cards 1-60.

There is a broken record and it is you. What is the point of this?

A question for those that have sent cards to get graded by Beckett. How do you prepare the card? Do you take off the sticker and ship in the one touch case?
