I have a spreadsheet of all my expenses for the set. The vast majority of big cards were purchased with bonus bucks and Ebates offers, so I got an average of 8-10% back on each card. With that, it was still a pretty penny. I went after the big short printed cards first and was going to wait to backfill some of the cheaper /110 and /135 cards... patience is not my best virtue

Which card do you think you heavily overpaid for?

Pugdogg · 09-17-2017, 08:38 AM

I am a big fan of this set as well. Beautiful design but I am also a sucker for acetate as well. What do you think the Hank will be #/ed to?

salthill · 10-05-2017, 11:12 AM

A really beautiful set - congrats!

Any idea how you're going to display them? A shoebox would be a sin for this set

Likewise. Except for the 1/1 which he signed on the front.

Would be interested in seeing it...I've been waiting for another Maddux to be listed. I won a Sandberg already, and waiting for another Bryant too.

Mine was delivered to the wrong address, but the owner of the house it was delivered to dropped it off yesterday at my place. Thank god!!

Here is mine

Holy cow. That is AWESOME!

jstephens24 · 10-29-2017, 12:01 PM

awesome set

Rndm1 · 12-16-2017, 11:06 AM

Santa is coming early this year...my Randy Johnson shows shipped by topps!

Scottish Punk · 12-16-2017, 11:49 AM

Beautiful stuff!! I am a fan of this set as well.

cj828282 · 12-16-2017, 12:21 PM

Early Christmas for me as well. My Bryant blue auto is scheduled for delivery on Tuesday! Now just waiting for the Ryan Angels auto and the Judge auto. I hear that Judge will probably not show up until early in 2018 sometime.

JimShorts01 · 12-16-2017, 12:27 PM

Still waiting for my Harper redemption. Has anyone heard any news about those getting signed and sent out?

I was really referring to the clear reprint set. Randy Johnson was a redemption. But the clearly authentic reprint auto for randy has shipped today. Any other clearly authentic Randy’s show shipped?

So this was my first time claiming a redemption from Topps. I did a quick look on eBay and it looks like some of the Harpers have already been signed and sent out. I took a quick look at my redemption page on the Topps website and it says under Status "Request Sub".

Does that mean I'm never getting that card or do I just have to keep waiting?

Triggwildcat · 12-16-2017, 04:48 PM

I guess it's weird to me that not all of these are rookie reprints. That ozzie smith is a 1983 reprint when his rookie was 1979. Not sure why that is, maybe because it was his first year on the cardinals?

saraceno21 · 12-16-2017, 10:56 PM

That is a nice looking set all together. I bought 1 pack/box of this stuff and pulled the Koufax. One of my best pulls. I have it overpriced on COMC right now.

jjeanius · 12-17-2017, 10:24 AM

I have been working on the reprint set as well, and have about 10 to go. I won the Trout on eBay from "oahusportscards", but they canceled the transaction because they were disappointed with the sales price. All class. It's frustrating that you can't leave negative feedback when this happens. It used to be possible, but eBay is obviously trying to minimize the amount of negative feedback in general, so now they allow a lot more BS behavior as a result.

philsfan · 12-17-2017, 10:35 AM

Nice thing is that a majority of the cards will hold their value if you ever decide to sell down the road. Can't say that about a lot of sets that people put together. Looks great.

Is that the one that sold for just over $800?

I think it was $898...?

If you don’t plan to honor the high bid then don’t run a normal auction. Poor form to say the least.

Dang. I thought 898$ was generous. It’s not like they sell for $2k. I will be blocking that seller. What a crook.

jjeanius · 12-17-2017, 07:49 PM

Thanks- I wholeheartedly agree (and I am doing the same). Not sure what they were hoping for...but they just lost a valuable repeat customer. Hope it was worth it
