That is a great idea!

Its a win-win -- Topps gets more buyers and the fans get what they want.

I was hoping that maybe one of the series for Thome would be Phillies, but fully understand the logic of Indians -- that is the hat he will go into the Hall with, but the idea above is a great one!

I’ll never be at one of these Topps party so I’m counting on another good write up or two from attendees

How long before Topps puts chrome and refractors in Topps Now? That's what would get me excited for the program

Yeah, they've been sitting on $600 worth of Dodgers postseason sets for me, so I'm in the same boat. It's a shame, this should be a better program given the effort they put into it.

I told you this in an email a few months back. The fact that they took what seemed like ages to tell us the print runs took away a lot of the fun for me on Topps Now. Granted I've had too much going on which has taken me away from it for a while, but the delay in telling us the print runs didn't help encourage me to stay.

Okay, good. I didn't buy any because it didn't have the logo, so I would have been a little bummed if they changed it after the fact.

I already mentioned this to Jeeves that PR notification was important and that having it the same time daily was something I'd like. So perhaps it's something they will work on. I could imagine they are not working the weekends during the off season so that could be the hold up. Still erks me they don't have it automated.

My PR guesses are:
Morris @ 104
Trammell @ 155
Thome @ 226
Jones @ 460

Yelich @ 233
Brinson @ 180

No bundled pricing may also hurt the print runs.

This is probably my only real complaint with Topps Now. Would very much appreciate print run reveals more regular. I don't care if they're at the same time each day. But get them out please.

Noon Monday EST and still no print runs. Unacceptable for cards dated 7 days ago.

The issue with WWE might have been the Austin card coming out hours afterwards and the bundle being listed as a 5 card bundle. I'm sure they want to get it right.

As for the OS-88 through 93...no excuse that I can find. They should have been updated by now.

I don't know if MLB Topps Now and WWE Topps Now are handled under the same team in Topps, but they just do such a terrible job for WWE Topps Now.
As someone collecting the set from day 1, it is quite irritating.

-Their numbering of cards are messed up (they skipped 6 or 7 or something in NXT set)
-Their PR announcement is super slow
-Announce cards late, and starts selling bundles for the same price the next day when a card was added (Stone Cold Steve Austin was added a day late and included in the bundle, making the bundle 4 card to 5 card with same price).

What no Golden Tickets! Man that sucks...not sure what it does to the value of the 1/1's from last year, can't imagine it being a positive thing.

Perhaps 2018 Golden Tickets will be handed out to Platinum Members! Hint Hint or perhaps Now buyers randomly get a card...also they could be randomly distributed in a different product later in the year.
More likely it could have just been too big of a headache for Jeeves...and he said "No way I'm doing that again!"

Not sure how many times I hit refresh waiting for PRs to pop but it's getting more frustrating by the hour.
