This is the right guy long term. Don't think you'll regret it.

I just realized that I’ve been seeing Bichette Panini Flawless on-card autos on the bay. The set released December 4.

Would Panini have had those cards signed a long time ago? Or did Bichette recently sign for Panini but not Topps??

Considering Flawless has live Bob Gibson (RIP) autos, I would say these were signed a while ago.

What is a realistic expectation for the 2020 Topps Chrome Redemptions to be fulfilled? Is there anyway of knowing or is it potluck? I hope it could be done before spring training begins, or is this something that could drag on for several years?

Bellinger took till early 2019 for 2017 products. So yes, it can drag. That's why many sell and buy into other products that are live.

This x1000... the new hobby is all about finding that perfect card and then letting it go, in hopes it will come back a gem. Talk about a trust exercise!

Just hope it doesn't end up like the Upper Deck Pastranak RPA. You'll be waiting a few years for a sticker.....

Nice! Hopefully that's a sign that the rest of them will be following suit soon.

For anyone in a panic about substitutions on redemptions, someone in one of the FB groups I’m in just got this today:

Uh oh. We’re about to get an onslaught of complaints about a fielding photo.

But glad to see that the autos are being shipped out. (Unfortunately, my Stadium Club redemptions are still pending.)

Man I just went from a state of bliss to existential dread realizing they're going to start fulfilling autos in the middle of the worst of the USPS problems �� oh well that's where I got a hope having 57 redemptions in the pipe actually works in my favor... Maybe, I dunno... But I did this to myself I suppose, so gotta live with it however it shakes out, can't wait to share pics and bore you people with stories on how Topps fulfilled so many redemptions across so many different sets ��

Looks like the redemptions are being filled in a phased approach (my TC autos have not shipped) so you likely won't have to worry about getting 50 at once. I also don't think any SC autos have been filled either - most of mine are there. With any luck, the usps problems will subside by the new year. You can't ship BF/CM packages for more than a month, right? Right??

Looks great!! How long ago did it move from pending on the website? I’m waiting a blue wave but mine went from pending to request sub last week.
