Maybe Tyson can help on this one!

Thank you for the support! Resealable bags they are, you don't need to rip them to open them

Not P2020, but a new shipping issue:

Quote:
Dear Derek Jeter Topps NOW® Chrome Customer,

We are writing to notify you about a delay with your Derek Jeter Topps NOW® Chrome order. Due to unforeseen shipping & supply chain issues, we are experiencing longer than anticipated shipping times. These cards will now ship at the end of October. We apologize for any inconvenience that the delay may have caused and thank you for your continued support of Topps.

Best Regards,

Topps
A lot of people told me that it wasn't Topps fault when they had all the shipping issues with P2020. I said it then, and I'll keep saying it: Topps always has "unforeseen circumstances" that cause myriad shipping and quality issues. Yes, the pandemic was a big issue. Yes, they sold way more than they were expecting. But giving them a pass isn't warranted since they always find a way to screw it up. Even though they're shipping quicker now, they can't seem to send the right cards in the correct quantities and they're jumping all over the place.

Reminds me of the Long Island Railroad where the trains are never on time.

Okay, restart rant for just a little more:

I'm only buying aftermarket P2020 cards so that I don't have to deal with Topps. I buy companion cards to support these artists. Call them money-hungry or talk about the lost resale value all you want, I'm going to buy direct and support them because Topps can't / isn't willing to.

Okay, now end rant.

I’m shocked that 5 of 6 cards I received this week have near-perfect centering. This Ichiro has no room for error. So, I can’t criticize Topps... this week. Until next week, when they send a pink Blake Griffey instead of my pink Fucci Griffey.

I think the only companion card I have outstanding is the Chang Trout Companion. Just making sure, that hasn't been shipped yet right?

She just had the cases for them come in. Should ship in 1-2 weeks.

Awesome! Can't wait to see what everyone comes up with. I should be finished with my Ripken by the end of the weekend.

I'll be honest. If Topps made a 2020 Topps Chrome Keith Shore edition set, I'd be all over it.

PS that Fucci is such a fun card. Just love the creativity and his snarkiness towards the haters!

My Mays is done as of last night but I wanted to sit on it for a second and see if I want to add anything else. I am working on a few different designs of this one for fun but will probably send you the first one I did.

Are we emailing you the photos?

If Harper is just a small face in the crowd it could work.

If he goes similar to Gooden/Strawberry then I agree it could ruin Trout.

Really wanted a Fucci Brett AP... Topps must have released it at a weird time because by 11:40 they were gone

God bless whoever has been lucky enough to snag one before the Bots

That's about as nice as you can make that one look. I like the ghost Marianos. Good stuff.
