Just one FF for me. Kind of wish I bought more.

Tork gold /50
Muncy gold /50
Ichiro Refractor

Cruz, Witt, Wander RCs, but no JRod.

Good point. You’d think that with all of the boxes that have been opened, at least one would have surfaced... but nope.

Default Topps 582 Montgomery Club

Nine box break from the public sale. Lots of fun. I opened 25 boxes previous to these and hit 2 autos. Maybe catching up to the odds. Best hits. 4 base of each of JRod, Witt and Franco.

Is the Larkin a buy-back auto?
The first one I've seen so far.

Yep, a buyback auto. Still have not seen a Trout auto from the product yet.

Nice break. Curious what are you doing with base?

Building sets with the base as long as sets move at a decent price.

If so, good news for actual set builders and collectors. In sum:

--My one MC box arrived
--The 3-box order I made Thurs. 8/25 is now "moving" and due for delivery Wednesday
--The 2-box order from Sat. 8/27 (when they expanded boxes allowed per account) is still processing.

They allowed 6 boxes per account in the end

I just have one account, so the water is not as muddy in trying to see what happened with orders..they allowed each account 2 additional boxes on Saturday 8/27, expanding the availability window..so, it seems bots evidently weren't scooping them up like before..they gave accounts a shot at more when they weren't selling.

They did the same thing with the Star Wars Mandalorian Chrome this week--it was a 6-box limit at first..they have since stretched it to a 13-box cap per account, because they are not selling...
UPDATE--

--3 box public order from Thurs. 8/25 arrived Thurs. 9/15
--2 box public order from Sat. 8/27 arrived today 9/17
--6 boxes total including the MC box all arrived and paid for

Will open them up down the road...but it seems like Topps keeping the online buying window open through Saturday was not an error...

Opened my 8 FF boxes that I can’t believe I actually received
Ref: Correa, Griffey, E. Suarez, T. Turner, Dalbec, Ruth, Carpenter, Baez, Moncada, Rizzo
Gold /50: Ripken, Nootbaar RC, L. Williams RC, Tork RC, Stott RC, Brett, Gilbert, Bradley Jr, Adell
Black /25: Hiura, Bieber, Pujols, Corbin
Rose Gold /15: F. Thomas
Ref Protector /10: L. Robert
Auto: Randy Johnson Flame Throwers /5

No monsters but can’t complain. Decent quality on the base minus centering issues with wander

Not really MC related, but could it be possible that Julio's FF RC print run is lower than his Topps Series SP RC?

Has anybody here been billed for the free boxes? I saw a poster earlier in the thread mention his cc was billed. Anybody else?
