MC members who bought two yesterday get to pay for shipping three times to get the account max. #THANKSTOPPS

Hopefully limit 6 does indicate some constraints on the print run. Large percentages of so many online releases these days are sold separately to distributors and/or the big 3 so it may not indicate anything.

Makes me think they originally intended to set the max to 3 yesterday. It makes zero sense to do a limit of 2, then a limit of 3, with an overall limit of 6.

Prediction: These will not sell out and they will raise the limit 24-48 hours from now.

Isn't that pretty much what they did on Finest Flashbacks this year? MC folks who ordered 2 initially then had to do 3 and 1 in the public sale to reach the cap. If I remember correctly...

I am a MC member that did not buy any boxes yesterday, and just carted 6 boxes on 1 order - Economy shipping was high ($20) but less so than what i would have paid with 2 separate orders or buying any yesterday

$32/box with a good rookie class? Yeah, I'll get some. If they open up the limits later, that's fine but I want to lock a few in.

I ordered 30 boxes. For $1k I've spent a lot worse. I think it's decent for the price. Will probably order more if the quantity is upped to 6 or greater

Those with multiple accounts, can you use the same credit card and address? Just need a different email address for it?

No one in the History of Topps has botted a On Demand Release. They just print as many as are ordered. The mini since 2017 has been on Demand so why would anyone BOT it?

Even with shipping (yes I know, in reality it would only cost them $5 to ship 3 boxes) it’s still a great deal.

I think the 3 box limit is good in that it may limit bots.

No complaints here.

That's odd, I did order my 2, but it capped me at 3 with my order today. I tried to add 5 and it said the max was 3. I was able to go back and add 1 more to my cart, but I'm just going to stay with 5 instead of paying shipping a third time.

This is not on demand. There is a finite amount of boxes. There is no page timer?

How many accounts do u have accountant?

Also, i just carted 6 and checked out successfully so they might have already changed the max per order limit to 6, didn't push for more (maybe i should have?)

Limit 3 today versus limit 2 yesterday for MC ahahahahahahahaha. Now that's comedy.

Topps knows what they are doing now and don't care.

All of the parallels are serial numbered, so it is not print on-demand.

This has been their MO since either early last year or the year before, they almost always allow MC less qty than public on these types or releases - just ask bob... (where is bob?)

In 2017 2018 2019 2020 They were sold as On Demand Products: You could order up to 100 packs per order as many times as you wanted. Trust me on that as I ordered 3 separate 100 pack orders in 2017 and 2018.

They printed however many were ordered! All of the parallels were serial numbered those years as well.

For example in 2018 only 5000 packs sold, so half of the pink parallels have never shown up.
