First Buzz: 2021 Topps Allen & Ginter baseball cards - Page 28

Swipe79 · 08-13-2021, 07:47 PM

For someone with Ginter in their user name, you don't seem to understand what the autograph being framed on a Ginter card would do for it's value.

The fact that you used the word "bro" in your reply is an automatic 10 point deduction...just the facts.

You can say that about every cut auto in Topps products though. There’s always cheaper signed photos or documents available on eBay or from auction houses.

Pulled a nice auto. First auto I've hit in retail in a while (last one was a Freddie Freeman patch/auto #d/30 in Series 1). At least Verdugo a baseball player, and I've heard of him. Not sure if I got anything else noteworthy. Minis went into my trash pile, and the non baseball stuff will follow soon. Anyway, thanks for the look.

Almost impossible not to like Verdugo as a player.

I love ripping a few boxes of AG every year because I think the checklist and quality of the cards are terrific. I do wish theyd do a higher end release with less filler. Maybe I’m in the minority but when I rip a Three hit box and get several tiny relic jersey cards it ruins the rest of the experience. I’d pay a premium to have a higher quality hit experience.

That looks to be a Chimp, not a monkey.

Yeah Chimps are apes, not monkeys.

Mahomie · 08-13-2021, 09:10 PM

This was my other hit from my box today...One Nut Kruk

Udyo · 08-13-2021, 09:16 PM

First time purchasing any A&G and just cracked open two boxes. Fun and interesting in general; but, can I ask if it's common to not get 3 hits? One of the boxes only had two - Trevor Story and Steelo Brim relic.

Was wondering if I missed something since I was half paying attention to the Sox game as well.. but doesn't appear so.

Just bad luck?

Hommy · 08-13-2021, 09:17 PM

Please don’t rain hellfire upon me for asking this…

Are the framed autos meant to be kept in the “frame”? For example, would that Trout from above be graded in its frame?

It is not uncommon for one box to have 4 hits and another to have 2. You checked the box topper packs right?

I’ve seen them graded without the frame, but this has the serial number on the frame.

Those $4-$8 signed autograph photos are likely reprints.

timber63401 · 08-13-2021, 10:46 PM

Getting ready to open a case I found for 1380 after taxes. Ill see how bad the bloodbath is. Fingers crossed.

wscws2008 · 08-13-2021, 11:06 PM

Haven’t busted any wax this year since Heritage and held off on getting a case this year. So I picked up 2 boxes from my LCS because I love A&G.

I think I beat the odds.

Aroldis Chapman, Realmuto, Adames Relics
Luis Castillo mini black frame auto /25
Ke’Bryan Hayes rip /99
Chipper Jones rip /99
Kim Ng NNO back /50
Dave Hanson Brooklyn Back /25

These two boxes was better than my entire case last year.

Keep them in the frame.
(The very first time I saw them I wondered if it was a fancy wrapper too…)

Were they originally framed, or were they from rip cards?

I was shorted a hit and a box topper in one of my boxes today, I can understand the hit but was shocked when I opened a sealed box and there was no topper!
