Or maybe ask for proof before you drag a sellers name through the mud and hit them with a neg. Some are legitimately getting their orders canceled from Topps.

So not getting picked in any of the raffles wasn't the worst outcome.

Can't wait to read all the responses today of the people that loved the raffle idea. Now even if you win the raffle decent chance you still lose.

I love it. Gave us a chance at 2. Those who bought 2 seem to be getting them.

Still a great idea. But the execution is about on par with what should be expected.

Looks like Luis Robert RCs are quickly working their way down. Any guess where they'll settle?

I loved the raffle, gave me a shot at getting some boxes and put $560 in my pocket which went to a few PC pieces.

Default Around $200

I think it's a $150 to $200 card, still a very limited set and a gorgeous card from a very limited set.

That's what I was thinking. Unless he starts mashing home runs like crazy

Still love the raffle idea even though didn't seem to qualify as I am a MC member. The MC cancellations is something Topps should be able to correct. Not rocket science to ship all the MC orders out first (which was not the case as I got my refund from Paypal this morning - no email from Topps about why cancelled so only reasonable explanation is that they oversold) before having a public sale and then doing the raffle. Did not try to game the system by opening up other accounts for raffle purposes. On the first day the raffle was opened, the option to participate in the raffle was not there...didn't bother to see if it was there on day 2 and wasn't going to break the rules anyways.

Am I the only one thinking that the Lux base is being undervalued at $30-$40? Especially considering how high the Robert is going. Hell, Lux hit 26 homers and batted .350 last year, what's the difference?

Break what rule? Where did it say a MC member couldn’t join the raffle?

How could they have oversold to Montgomery Club members and still had 1000's of boxes for sale 2 days later to the general public? They even had a second chance thing where people got boxes a week later.

Raffle concept have nothing to do with Topps botching the allocation of the boxes.
You sound like someone bitter with raffle idea from the beginning. Using bots or something?
