2022 Topps Chrome Baseball Pre Sale.. thoughts? - Page 221

BayAreaChris · 09-28-2022, 04:24 PM

Anyone hear if the 5 normal packs are like Bowman Mega with no hits or are they normal?

One thing that’s interesting too is that the non-hobby / jumbo boxes where Topps said the SPs existed, are they just the specific versions like black/white or logofractor? They are probably covered if that’s the case even if we all think they should have the regular SPs too.

Almost as if you can't afford to purchase and trying to convince yourself that its trash and you aren't missing out. Maybe you have different motives, but just how it comes off. Good luck though.

Not only is it strange but it can’t be healthy.

The old “you’re too poor” to buy the $50 gimmick box of junk argument. Nice!

Why do people get so defensive when dissenting opinions are posted? Did we learn nothing from the 2022 Topps Chrome thread?

I ordered 10. Going to sell my two hobby boxes and one jumbo box at a loss and try to get more of these. Thankfully I pre-ordered those three boxes at the lowest price that was ever available, so I'm not going to take a massive hit.

Sorry if you don’t like me dumping on it. Buy what you want with your money but I’m not going to circle jerk around it. And thank you for thinking of my finances. I think you may want to reconsider your statement on that. I guess you’re not allowed to not like a product + call it out. I didn’t say a word in response to single member (first). I gave my thoughts. You all didn’t like it.

Still think Topps played this perfectly. Intentionally withheld the SPs from hobby/jumbo so that they could sell Lite and this crap. This will fade fast when the actual SP is live. Even more so if there are parallels of that.

I mean sapphire was once a gimmick right? Topps 3d is a gimmick but people are paying $700 for Julio's image variation. I would never pay that. But I do believe Topps dumped on hobby and retail with ESPs in their online exclusives.

Anyone seen a Julio or Witt actually pulled yet from a Logofractor box?

ThoseBackPages · 09-28-2022, 04:32 PM

i think some of us are fed up with Topps' bullsh*t

A JRod has surfaced. It’s earlier in the thread and on Twitter.

We've seen a photo of Julio on twitter. Confirmed unless you think it's faked!

The Accountant · 09-28-2022, 04:33 PM

Damn, can't help but feel like I need more lol.

It's all one gimmick, man. Giant gimmick in outer space.

I think its funny that some would hang the 'junk' or 'ugly' label on these. Granted, it's an uneven comparison in some ways, but are the Topps Holiday boxes out soon? I need my santa hat parallels and whatnot.

I like the look of these. I bought.

That's how it be.

SupermanBrandon · 09-28-2022, 04:36 PM

Topps has lied over and over. They delay releases over and over again. They hold back rookies a full year. The list goes on and on. I won’t suck them off for a $50 gimmick box.

It's strange behavior. I would not waste my time commenting on every product I didn't like, multiple times. To each their own of course.

We've seen a photo of the Julio logofractor. Not the actual missing SPs that were supposed to be in the hobby boxes (etc.).

Unless you've seen something I missed!

So hobbyist are just suppose to be quiet? Either be quiet or love it while posting all about? There’s no other options? Topps & influencers must love you.

Still none of the extended base rookie SP, just the julio logofractor so far. Maybe those extended SP RC are actually rare?

LittleJimmies · 09-28-2022, 04:45 PM

Bought a couple for a fun rip. Think the cards look cool, but not buying into these being anything special.

Watched a 10 box break and none of the SPs showed up, but hit 1 wander and 1 cruz base as well as a gold cruz base.
