Doubt it. Most of the sneaker kids probably bought a p2020 card this weekend to up their chances. What would be better is if they could limit it to accounts are at least like 6 months old or something.

what’s everyone’s guess as to how many of these boxes will be opened in the first month, as opposed to resold and sitting on shelves long-term?

Ben Baller just tweeted this question, and majority of the people are replying that they would rather have 2 boxes of the Chrome BBDTC.
Meanwhile the Ichiro AP is a $8K card...

The more he tries to hype this, the worse I think the resell is gonna be.

Doubtful. Who really pays attention to what he's saying? Anyway, Baller aside (1) an online exclusive (2) low print run apparently (3) all wax is getting snatched up.

I know there is early hype but 2 cards would go for over $1200 from BBs box alone. I am sure that one box could bring about $1500 and there was no autos but a nice red of Alonso. So I don't see box prices falling much below the current prices, at least for awhile until maybe Sapphire comes out.

I was expecting $500/box on the secondary market. Anything beyond that is gravy imo. If that Robert sells for even half of the first, that’s a big deal for a card you basically find in every other box.

That Robert was the very first card of the product sold and personally pulled by Baller. I'd be surprised if the next one goes for a quarter of that.

I’m aware. I don’t think it sells in that range either.

not me. i would guess the next few will be close to that. most people on ebay don't know who or care who pulled the card. all they care about is that they can get one.

Thought he said he was giving away all of the cards from the box he opened? Maybe after selling the Robert he can now afford shipping on the ones he did give away?

He gave the Robert to a LA LCS owner and the owner put it up on eBay. Baller did not personally sell his Robert.

Out of principle, I'm not entering the raffle. Tired of Topps always screwing us clectors over.


(obviously not, in before these dinguses)
