I was going to be in at 85 even knowing that would probably be a minor blood bath. Going to be lots of losers at 95.

Happy to wait for the checklist before making a big purchase for this one. Pricing was higher than I'd like, but not the end of the world.

Yeah, pre-orders are never gonna be hot deals anymore. As long as you remove that expectation, I don't think this is that bad.

Don't get me wrong, I would have paid 1k a case to enjoy 1975 and have fun and lose a bit. But the fun factor is significantly too expensive at this price point. |

I think if they would guarantee early delivery, maybe there's an advantage to pre-ordering, but I've only gotten pre-orders a few days after release. Might as well wait.

Topps is in this to make as much money as possible. Consumers are to blame for current prices.

Have to pay to play. $100 for a box of 2024 cards is pretty cheap.

Don’t buy!
This crap always drops in price.

Having watched some case breaks of these, boy is this product diluted.

![]() Exactly. Let’s guess: same rookies as Series 1, Trout, Ohtani, Altuve autos, some super duper hard to hit jersey autos, chrome that are one in three boxes, janky box loaders to throw away, near impossible throwback and errors, action shots that are hard to distinguish from the base, some donkey inserts.

I always thought Heritage was a cool throwback for set builders with very little hits and auto, right?

I think literally the only things we’re waiting to find out are if Ohtani and Soto base will be in new uniforms, if all the rookies have autos (I could see them holding back like 1 guy), the minis, and who the retired autographs will be. Nothing should move the needle, except maybe the minis |

I'd guess that Yamamoto is almost assuredly going to be in HHN. If they got Brett and Yount to sign, that would be pretty awesome.

Sucks, but it depends where you are. I'm close to their Ohio facility and have gotten preorders a day or two before release.

Since they jacked the print runs up in 2020 Look at last 6-8 products including high. Prices are low or nobody is buying them Even 2022 update with Julio and Witt are 45 a box because print run is 5-10 times higher I get everything has gone up. It’s true. But wax prices going up so fast. And mix that in with all the gambling It’s garbage imo |
