That sucks, sorry. I have a feeling this is going to happen to me on a Jeter card I ordered. If it does, may buy all his 2020 cards and never pay JK but at least leave feedback and post here.

Guess not everyone stayed away as they claimed. LOL. For a couple of cards that a lot of people did not like, those are some big numbers.

Big numbers for OldManAlan! People did not stay away as they said. The cat's out of the bag guys! I anticipate cards 1-10 to have huge value, cards 11-40 to have value, and the rest are all gonna have high PRs.

I’d prefer Blake to stay consistent as that makes for a more visually appealing, 20-card display, in my opinion. Just like I’d like to see Oldmanalan stay consistent with his style.

I’m glad people want different things, though. That’s why some jumped on Ermsy, and others didn’t. It’s why a Gooden card is going to outsell must others.
I don’t know. We’ll see when the print run shows up I guess. I bought one. It’s a great card. And he essentially did pay homage to the Olympic card. I would have just preferred seeing the 1985 border.

I do believe that makes the clemente a sp and will be valued at 100$ henceforth.

Card 56 has one of the lowest PRs of the set and currently like 3 are on eBay.

Actually surprised Ichiro was only 11k. Baller’s Rickey did 15k. The artist effect is definitely at play here.

Good thing I bought an extra 10 pack at the last minute hedging for that sub 9k print run and we’re golden with this card now.

I think this is telling. Assuming $15 card Topps just realed in a nice $300.5k. And this might be lower than the next two days.

Jackie 7.5K <== folk aren't thrilled with the likeness of Jackie
Mays 9.0K <== people love them their Chang

Overall, sales for these two will be soft with the hype over McGwire and Jeter.

Today’s Jeter design reminds me of the Star Wars movie posters, except it’s just him.

For the record, I wasn't actively trying to pump up the price of the Baller Trout when I posted that earlier. I was simply showing what I saw on Ebay. And that wasn't the only one I saw over 50 that sold. Wondering personally if I will ever actually receive my copy I bought direct from Topps.

Whether they are real sales or not is a whole different story.....

Im so sorry that this happened to you. This is the part that doesn't make it fun. He made $40 on a card already and now didn't just lose you as a customer. Many more will follow and not trust him.

Congrats to those who got in! Solid print runs, I think the last hour purchases were limited by the Jeter/Mac release.

Probably took away 1-2k of each

Just bought another Clemente for $25 after seeing that print run, debating picking up a few more.

Did you see the print runs? Around 20,000 between the two for cards that a lot of people said they didn't like. I don't think anything was limited. That is an enormous print run for those cards with that timing.
