Amazing, right?

Fantastic, thank you sir. I can’t seem to see the available ones.

They went on sale at 11:40CT and went OOS at 11:50CT. If you cared enough to follow this stuff closely and wanted one bad enough you would've known that Topps is notorious for dropping stuff between 11:40-11:50CT and been paying attention. I cared enough so I was paying attention. Had plenty of time to manually checkout 3 times and still show them in stock. Wasn't hard at all just took a bit of devotion. In 2020 they were available for much longer than 10 min also.

It was 65 different customers using that group...

No. One guy hit 65. And people hit more. Don’t comment if you don’t know.

it's still baffling to me how we aren't physically allowed to even purchase more than 1 per account, we jump through boats and busses for verification, etc... yet somehow a bot can get 65 for one person sent to the same address...

With product page never making live on the front-end, I'm skeptical that Topps fulfills any of these botted backdoor orders. Maybe I'm naïve, but i think Topps knows what is going on.

Trying to shame people who want a membership for not being able to drop everything in their lives in a 10 minute window is gross. Even grosser that you do it with such an air of smug condescension.

It's nice for you that you have a life where you were able to carve out the time to buy three memberships. Hooray for you. Not everyone is in the same situation, and even for people that tried to carve that time out, life happens. So stop being a dick about it, be happy that it worked out so well for you, and move on.

Curious to see if they end up doing a raffle. Pretty sure this is similar to how the drop went for regular Bowman Sapphire and they ended up doing a raffle for some remaining inventory.

I still don't see it under Boxes & Packs so maybe there's hope for those who still want to get some?

And to add on, if I am given two hours, I guarantee I can find at least 50 people on twitter right now, that want a MC membership, but did not even know that blowout exists and have no clue about time drops and logistics.

I missed on 2020 membership because I wasn't as in tune with things and didn't follow BO closely on important drop days. I didn't go on message boards to complain though. I researched where I could find the info in a timely manner and made sure I didn't miss in 2021. Now you know for next year where and when to look and hopefully you'll be able to make some time to get one. If not, I'm pretty sure bot users sell extra accounts they buy with Topps burner accounts. Not sure what they charge for those though.

Well sir, I was proactive about this bowman draft sapphire release. I had my account logged in, looked at the drop time yesterday, and was ready for 1 measly box of sapphire. And apparently, it is a ghost product for us non MC members.

So be prepared all you want. Things always change and I am sure next year, the MC membership will be incredibly hard to get with different logistics.

Absolutely could be but I hope not. I honestly expected this year's club drop to be as bad as this draft sapphire drop. This was a total disaster. Hopefully they have some remaining inventory they can send to a raffle so everybody has a shot.

Hopefully by next renewal the bottom falls out, and we can go back to some semblance of normalcy.

It is not a waiting room for anything other than to get onto the website. just a bunch of folks who think sapphire is coming again.

We have to be close to that right? Like... people are paying almost as much money (and in some cases MORE) for Mayer color autos as they were for graded Wanders AFTER his call up. It's reached sheer insanity.
