Anyone else still looking for the link and not seeing it? The last email said you could sign up until 1pm ET, but it looks like it is already gone....

If you get the daily email blasts from Topps, scroll down and there should be the link to enter the raffle.

Hmm, weird. Consider myself wrong. Wonder why they closed the window early.

Why wait until last minute to enter anyways unless it's some sort of strategy or no time to do it I guess.

Good luck to all of those in the raffle! I still have legit concerns they don't have my proper email in place based on the output received back from them.

If you know, you know. All I know is I’ve been quoted by at least one person in this thread who knows.

Did people get their boxes already? I am just trying to figure out how a LouBob sold already from this set. Is Ben Baller selling his own cards on the side?

Ben gave it to a LCS owner that he knows to see "how much he could get for it".

He's just hyping it up like he does everything else with his name attached to it. Free promo for him to go on social media and pretend to be shocked that a LouBob from his set is going for $600+ to drive more people to try and buy.

I'm MC, bought a box and in group 1.

Unsure why there's Group 1 & Group 21. Here's my idea. Two raffles for two crews.

2 shifts. There's what 7000 some odd boxes to raffle.
Split the work load among the shipping crew. Possibly day/night crew or 2 work areas.

Two crews help solve social distancing guidelines for employers. Either work them at different times, or in different locations (parts of the warehouse).

Yeah, I've always assumed it was his artist/stage name.

The registered email they confirmed on my entry was "Ben's" email, odd....

I spent $1,200 on Ben Baller 2020 cards and now have about 75 cards selling for $6-$11 that I paid $12-$20 for, whooooops!

Ben Yang


Ben Yang got his nickname “Baller” because he used to do ball plays in his school and college days in San Francisco. He graduated Bachelor of fine arts in Cinematography ..........

Was about to post the same Q. If everyone is a "lucky winner" you may not be too lucky after all lol

No. But back on page 20 or so some said it was 8,500 boxes based on the odds. Unsure if that figure was correct.
