eTopps. The final dagger to collectors.

I think we all envisioned these being printed,encased,and sitting in a pristine temperature controlled safe with an armed guard. When it’s closer to them being printed, thrown in a bunch of cardboard storage boxes, transported to their back shed where a good percentage where stolen, water damaged, heat damaged, and chewed up. They then have some hack, who have never opened a pack of baseball cards before, rummage through them, hammer them into factory irregular penny sleeves and used one touches. I really hope they’ve changed the shipping part, but what has been done over the last 10-20+years can’t be undone.
When my second shipment arrives, I will update on how those arrive.

The most “valuable” card I had sent to me was the Obama basketball card. I’m hoping they don’t mess it up too much. Looking to trade or sell it to get the AG or all star game
Obama.

I had a shipment in early January of 2025 that looked pretty close to what was provided 15 years earlier so seems like something happened between now and then.

I’m supposed to get all my low print 01’s. Would be nice if they were handled better than a Hank Blalock.

I remember it being a rewards points purchase.

I also had a 2011 Topps opening day box from rewards points, which they apparently had in stock! will see if I get it or not.

That makes sense. How did you forget you had that in your port?!

Think this is probably right.

They have been hitting for me day 9. They did say people at a certain date (sept19th I think)will have their credit hit their account when cards are shipped.

Did your credit come out right?

I think I did better than ok.

Across two payments I got about 2000 bucks. The $1.50 rate for me across two ports when this first happened was about $1150.

My second payment came days after I made my delivery order, which was 9/30.

Problem still exists if you have 2 or more of the same card, the total does not update for the multiples. Sure would to love get $1.50 for each of the 40+ each Hank Blalocks, Jeremy Bonderman and Jesse Foppert lol Anyone get a resolution on multiples of same card for store credit? Have to place a call you think?

Store credit hit topps.com account yesterday...so it only took 2 days and the amount appears to be correct...for delivery order has not shipped out yet...one order paid for UPS overnight.

This was explained years ago this wasn’t the case. Topps had the raw cards in boxes and they were prepped as delivery was requested.
The delivery numbers were low for years. Which is why they created additional Options for delivery, like USPS and steep discounted delivery to HTA stores. And also why Topps gave financial support to the ECon booth at the national and select other shows.

Has anyone gotten their cards in the past week, or have they just given up on actually shipping these?

Placed my 16 card order on 9/13. Haven't gotten anything.

[PuddleMonkey]

Give them time to print them guys, jeez.

They said they have a ton of orders to process and to not expect anything soon.

[henwo]

My order arrived yesterday, surprisingly in One Touches.

They must be mailing like 25 cards per day. Embarrassingly slow.

[Tommy61]

still awaiting on a 2nd shipment of cards or store credit since 9/23 called today and said they could provide a packing list after requesting on 9/23 and not being able to get one. It looks sounds like a drag process in effect and await for process and hope to get a resolution at a later date.

[pfb11]

9/23 is nothing. there are people who have been waiting a month more than that.

[Etopps]

My second shipment was placed 9/17 and nothing yet.

[Diamondjake]

Hey at least I got my Spongebob blasters from the credit applied.

So, you know, that's a plus.

[allstarauction]

Is there a sense of how far behind they are on orders? I requested on 9/3 and still nothing.

[sharxfan]

I placed my order on 8/23 and there have been no updates on my account.
