That’s not the way I see it. As someone above said, each 2024 box is 3 2023 boxes given the configuration change. So, it felt OK to me.

Haha yeah, sold out quicker than expected. Someone quoted 14k boxes so I thought I had some time to decide on the extra 5. Happy to have secured some though!

I was going to pass but the autograph checklist was really really nice so got in for 2 boxes. This is Topps so of course the big name autos will be much more short printed than the spare rookie autos. Even with that there are some really good odds at pulling a nice name.

They are counting the inserts as "hits".

(6) Base Cards (2) Inserts per pack
Inserts Include: Frame Rate Insert, Shutter Speed Insert, Rookie Resolution Insert, Numbered Parallels /99 and down, SP/SSP Photo variations, Golden Hour and Autographs!

I would assume the same as last year, 1 insert and 1 #'d card/auto/SP per pack. Then 6 base cards instead of 8. So then in a comparison to last year it's ultimately $15 more and you get 18 fewer base cards. And I would think that's a best case scenario given how things have unfolded this year.

It's also $15 more for a guaranteed auto (last year's product averaged an auto in every 3 boxes but that doesn't mean that purchasing 3 boxes guaranteed you an auto), which holds a lot of value in itself.

Well I just checked my USPS informed delivery and I have something coming from Fanatics Frazyburg. Weird that they would send this via USPS. It is a parcel package so not first class.

I'd be surprised if they shipped this USPS. Maybe something else? I can't remember the last time I had anything shipped out of Frazyburg, either.

Looks like I have something coming from the UPS Surepost, Mail Innovations or whatever it is called. Handed off to USPS. Not going to like this and may come after Christmas. Just surprised I have not had the shipped email from Topps. So it could be something else besides the BW boxes. But the only other thing I have coming is the Ohtani 50/50 boxes.
