Heck, not even TBP knows what he's talking about on occasion. I see he's fine with ignoring questions of elaboration though, as if the issue will simply go away.

Making false claims without knowing facts should be beyond you, TBP. So why isn't it? Inquiring minds want to know.

when 2019 Topps Chrome Sapphire was released, it was open to all via the topps.com website

amazingly, it sold out in Seven (7) Minutes

i was not able to get through the checkout process, which is ok, as it happened ot lots of people (and continues to this day)

Matt has (at least) three SEALED CASES, not boxes, CASES which he has spoken about here on the message boards

Topps has to take care of their Whales, i get that.

is it easier for Matt to sell these P2020's at a slight loss, to remain in Topss' good favor when it comes to the other stuff?

sure seems so. if you (collective you, reading this) are fine with it (and many of you are) so be it.

But this whole "im doing it for the good of the people" stuff is just.... out there

Wrong, wrong, and wrong. You're wrong....again.

I do NOT have 3 sealed cases of 2019 Topps Chrome Sapphire. I NEVER HAD 3 sealed cases of Topps Chrome Sapphire.

7 minutes was more than enough time to buy 2 sealed cases, (several other people bought at least 2 in that time frame), and my wife was trying for a third, (I was on the road that day for business), before it sold out in the middle of her try. She would have kept buying up to 10 or more cases worth if the supply would have been there without the demand.

Again, you are absolutely, but not surprisingly, wrong.

That's not even a nice try, TBP. Why are you so hateful? You realize hate blinds one from seeing the easy truth, don't you?

It's the worst of the 3 released this week. It's still good, just not as good. It's better than his P2020 Clemente IMO, and is more P2020 than companion set IMO as well.

But then again, I don't like these to be filled with words.

whatever matt.

why wasnt i able to check out with one box then? and i was not the only one

sure, it was "real easy" to checkout with multiple cases

and believe me, i am not hateful towards you, i just dont believe the "doing it for the good of the people" without some angle to it

His Clemente is so nice!

I think his complete set will display very well, and be an awesome conversation piece.

Not "whatever".

You made false claims. You should know better. Shame on you.

And for the record, I still have every single one of those 2019 Sapphire boxes.

For sure! My wife is an art fan and can't stand baseball. Fucci is one of her favorites and I think his work brings people in.

Another quick update...

The Matrix header is now sticky. When scrolling, player names will remain visible.

Also, if you didn't know, you can click the images to view them in their full size (or at least close to it).

I've mentioned this before, but he has been an interesting case for me. I dislike his art outside of the project (view him a as poor man's anything you want to compare him to in terms of subject matter, technique, and/or style which we have discussed on the board previously). But I really love what he has done with the subject matter of this set. I think he has elevated the cards as much as the cards have elevated him (at least for me personally).

Yeah, just because the larger size makes all the intricate details clearer.

I totally agree. I didn't get it in the beginning, now they're some of the cards that I've been most excited to see on drop day.

Today's exchange reminded me of the time that one dude randomly showed up in here one day and started slamming the set and challenging Matt. I call it the Escrow Bet Day. Lol. Man, this thread has delivered almost all year long! Long live P2020!

Well, you should be ashamed. Making false claims like that with negative intent is shameful for someone that SHOULD know better. If you have no shame, then you simply don't know better. For that, I'd feel sorry for you.

The difference of me still having them or not means I'm not a quick flip guy. They are the true culprits of us not being able to get what we want on release day at MSRP.

I buy all Soccer NOW cards, but I couldn't get a single box of yesterday's Topps soccer release. I tried, but ended up with exactly zero. That's been about par for the course for nearly every release this year outside of the Montgomery Club.

ive stated my beliefs and feel no shame nor am i ashamed. i guess that makes me a bad person. i will have to live with that.

i was wrong about it being "only" two CASES and not three.

It's invincible force vs immovable object. I'm thinking Hogan vs Warrior, Ali vs Foreman.
