2022 Topps Chrome Baseball Pre Sale.. thoughts?

Time to start a poll, who are the most annoying BO posters:

1. Those who complain about flippers.
2. Those who complain about breakers.
3. Those who complain about complainers.
4. People who start polls.

This board rivals political boards on who gets the most pleasure out of other people's pain. People here LOVE to post about hypothetical tears of (insert target group).

5. Those who complain about those who won’t give off brand hair follicle cards an honest consideration to add to their collection.

I've started pronouncing bois as "bwah" just to add that extra layer of annoyance.

Haha, I was just thinking the same thing as I posted.

Too bad we can’t get audio enhancements on these boards.

Better than smell enhancements, I'd gather.

For sure, if BO ever gets a nice BO smell enhancement from the card show crowds, it’ll definitely reduce active posters here.

I tried to redeem a Hunter Greene autograph but I get a message saying "The code you have entered is invalid!" Are redemptions typically not live a week after release date?

The actual redemption codes will be in the silver packs.

Not for the short prints, but for a regular autograph redemption pulled from a pack

(it was a joke)

Topps redemption codes often don't work for a short period of time after the product is released. I'd try again in a week or two.

Or if you're really in a hurry, call their customer service and see if they can do anything for you.

It's not unusual at all for redemption codes not to be in the system for several weeks after the product goes live. I had one last year that kept saying invalid until the beginning of september from clearly authentic, which was released at the end of july. If you don't want to wait that long, you can always send it in.

Yes and it's the same people who started adding "Z's" to everything. Just a sign of old age I believe. I look at BO as being an older, more traditional crowd and of course with age comes more complaining about how things used to be. It's funny watching a 58 yr old post about "investmentz" as a lightweight jab to the younger crowd not realizing that those of us who actually used "z" in place of "s" are already in our late 30's-early 40's. Gen Z doesn't talk/type like that. The old guys are so out of touch they can't even make fun of young people in an accurate and witty way LMAO.

Boi is used sarcastically, pal. Also, s not z. Those guys that use z are definitely over 50.

Interesting.

Boi (plural: bois)
A young trans man, or a trans man who is in the earlier stages of transitioning. A younger bisexual or gay person who may have effeminate characteristics. The term can also be used by anyone who wishes to distinguish from heterosexual or heteronormative identities.

I had the same issue with my Wander redemption and came to the forums and everyone said that it takes Topps a couple of weeks to enter in redemptions code online and to try again in a couple of weeks

Yeeaahhh -- I think it's time to retire the use of that word.

Would you be satisfied if people used the word -

“Investor rois” instead?

I’m trying to work with people here so nobody gets too upset.

Sneaker rois, flipper rois, breaker rois - does that work for everyone?

“Rois” stands for “Return on investmentzers”.

This sounds like someone was so butthurt that they were called a "soy boi" that they went and invented some horsecrap definition so it will be viewed as bigoted if people keep using it.

Big Boi (rapper from Outkast) was the first reference I ever saw to the spelling, and Avril Lavigne had a song referencing a "skater boi" using the term way back in the early 90s.

I don't care how many places they want to plaster this "new" definition but the term existed well before any trans/bi/gay person ever thought of using it to describe anything.

If something triggers you just claim it's a LGBT/racial term and then call everybody a bigot when they reject your stupid made-up definition and keep using the term that hurts your feelings.

I love collecting licensed MLB trading cards, btw, just to let you all know.

I've never saw the word before except on here. So I just did a quick look up to see if else uses it and where it started. When I first saw it being used on here I thought it had to have started in Cali... all these stupid "I gotta try and look cool, bruh" trends seem to start over there.

But it apparently has a real definition, ha!

I think we all do. Problem here is, Topps made the people who pre-ordered the product grab their ankles, and then they released a product and "forgot" to put the biggest part of the release in packs.

So I can see why people are pissed off.
