Congratulations, going to be a tremendous card

From what one member has said before on Twitter, no limit unless it's explicitly called out in the email for that particular card. There may be an unstated limit where Topps would tell a member that they needed to leave some for everyone else, but that member has never had it happen to him.

I was curious because he had one up for sale OBO, but then listed another at auction. I asked and he said he got two of them. Might've reserved one and snagged another, but I doubt it.

That's unfortunate.

Just seeing today's cards - not sure if there's been previous discussion but I totally wish that Pujols 700 HR club looked more like the Judge Record-Breaker from his rookie year - how cool would a big "700" in the background looked?!?

zworykin · 09-24-2022, 12:46 PM

I find it strange that they didn't make up a 700-HR club logo the way they did for Miggy's 3,000th hit. Or, really, I guess what I still find strange is that they DID that for Miggy's card in the first place...

That may be Miggy or the Tigers' logo. IIRC Jeter had one too, probably the same situation - I don't remember if that one made it to any cards or not

TimBuckTwo · 09-24-2022, 12:51 PM

Never saw them. Judge cards will be the same if he does it.

16Cubs · 09-24-2022, 12:55 PM

I’m glad I never saw them because would have tried for the /99 and really do not need it for my PC at that price. Did get the Soto/Pujols HRD relic so that’ll be good enough.

Wouldn't have mattered if you guys had both been there right at the drop - /99 showed up as Sold Out immediately.

Todays Pujols' consolation prize showed up at my doorstep. Yes, #5/10

zworykin · 09-24-2022, 02:02 PM

That's awesome, congrats on the grade!

Dear Platinum Members,

Out on the West Coast yesterday, New York's newest RBI king was having another incredible day at the plate.

New York Mets slugging first baseman Pete Alonso broke the club's franchise record for RBI in a season, a mark of 124 that was previously held by Hall-of-Famer Mike Piazza and David Wright, thanks to his five RBI day at the plate.

This was Alonso's fourth game this season of collecting five RBI and he now has 128 on the season - tied with Yankees outfielder Aaron Judge for most in the Major Leagues.

To celebrate this outstanding statistical achievement, we are excited to offer the following cards:

Pete Alonso
/99 - Autographed card
/49 - Autographed card
/25 - Autographed card
/10 - Autographed card
/5 - Autographed card

Please reply to this email with your reservation requests by 12:30 p.m. EST

We thank you for your continued support and hope you have a great day!
The Topps NOW team

Cool, first Polar Bear auto this year. Wonder what that'll run.

Darn. 200 starting price after all. Same pricing as Vlad Jr.'s latest.

Nice to see only the /5s completely reserved, for a change.
