Yup, same here. I might be done with Topps now this season...spending 10-11 bucks a card with shipping is a no deal for me.

Thats crazy. I just went to purchase some Topps Now cards and saw the same thing. This will definitely change the game for these. Ugh.

txrngr34 · 03-31-2025, 08:51 AM

The single-card and 10-card options also have only $10 shipping as the cheapest ship option.

I was much sadder about giving up wax. Giving up TN because of this is a much easier transition.

Man, I tried to keep an open mind about the Fanatics consolidation effort even though I was pessimistic. But it's clear they just want/need gamblers, not collectors. Choking off the lifeblood of the hobby will eventually cost them - but probably not for a while, unfortunately.

Scrub · 03-31-2025, 10:35 AM

Just checked right now...it is back to free shipping on a 5 card order.

You almost lost me Fanatics!

MtnAg08 · 03-31-2025, 10:44 AM

Just saw Scrub's post so my original post is now moot.

Glad it was just an error. They really are scaring the fanbase with these errors lately. First they almost release a second Ramos card in Topps Living as a Giant then they almost add shipping to bulk Topps Now orders. It's bad enough they made the relic/autos gamble only with this and got rid of the 2 card bundles in Topps Living. I really don't want to see these sets go away but with the changes being made and their other online sets getting axed I'm not sure how much longer these will last. Or if they do, if they will be worth continuing to collect.

Kristian Campbell still showing $10, Shaw is not. WTF is going on over there?

I just checked out with a Shaw 5-card order and free shipping. Try it now.

Edit: Never mind. I read that wrong. Sorry about Campbell.

It worked finally. Not sure why it was different for different players. I would venture a guess and say it will alter print run totals.

Wow this PR was not as high as I thought it would be:
Aaron Judge - 2025 MLB Topps NOW® - Card 18 - LOOK FOR RELICS and AUTO-RELICS - PR: 8755

Maybe people are finally hesitating with the cost/gamble for 1 auto and a few relics.

That and the historic nature of the feat (in the grand scheme of things...not very!).

Imagine that...savy gamblers/collectors!

Zeldafanatic15 · 04-02-2025, 11:41 AM

I'm also shocked it was that low. Haven't bought any Topps Now cards this year besides Road to Opening day sets and an MLS card from my team. Might just bow out for this year.

I was hoping for another Yankees HR card today since they did break the MLB record for most HRs in the 1st 4 games of the series. Oh well.

Zeldafanatic15 · 04-02-2025, 03:53 PM

Bonus card for my home team Cardinals- 3 HR game for Herrera.

Is this not celebrating that?

Still too high. His Now card for his first career 3 homerun game printed 4758.

Really wish people would start laying off these idiotic “look for” gimmicks. It’s sad to see how bad Fanatics has screwed up Topps Now.

No, that came out for the 1st 3 games and they fell 1 home run? short of tying the most in 3 games. In the 4th game, they broke the record for most home runs ever in the 1st 4 games of the season.

For the hobby's current #2 guy, I'm shocked the PR didn't surpass 10K. I don't track these numbers but 8K for a Judge lotto seems low-ish.

Fsegaud · 04-03-2025, 03:47 PM

Ohtani card issued today.
Standard price but an SP (or SSP?) photo variation is available numbered to only 17.

I like this from Topps...keep price the same, throw a variation in for some fun and provide a PR for said variation card.

Dukefett · 04-03-2025, 05:07 PM

I'm pretty surprised they didn't do a Merrill card with him signing the extension and also hitting a homer in the game yesterday. I was counting on that to blow some Topps points on lol

okumeister · 04-04-2025, 11:01 AM

I am probably so behind on this, but since when did Topps start charging shipping fee for single purchase of Topps Now cards?
I just tried buying 1 card of the Ohtani, and see $3 shipping fee applied.

I believe they started doing that last season.

Well two more Yankees cards today -- hopefully you'll manage lol

Yeah, I was really happy with the Escarra card because according to Beckett, he has zero cards previously.

They could have also created a card for Judge, Volpe, and Chisholm. Apparently, they are the only trio of teammates to have 5, 4, and 4 homeruns in the 1st 6 games in MLB history.

Judge went deep again today too.
