about a week ago i got a shipping notification for my pardee x griffey brick. it weighted 2.6 lb. the only other time i got a 2.6 lb. notification on a brick was for the don c x canseco. it had a foil. been looking forward all week, just got the package, no foil

108 cards received since last foil hit.

Received my brick of Pardee Griffey today and decided to not look at the packing slip and just open one by one. Hit a foil /70!

Three APs still available.

Did anyone here buy a Don C Satchel Paige AP?

No. I like APs very much, but find it very hard to justify buying the AP if I wouldn't even buy the base card.

Funny the same thing happened to me a few months back. I used to check the weights and first time there was a foil with an increased weight, a few weeks later and same weight had no foil. After that I just stopped looking at weights

Remind me, outside of the All-Star cards, have any of the current Red Sox players received a card yet?

Could the delta be the number topps prints for replacement/archival purposes?

I've hired Rudy Giuliani to investigate and you will not believe what he found out.

Stay tuned.

No, but to be fair Devers is really the only clear slight.

The Red Sox are an odd collection that is more than the sum of their parts.

Yet somehow they clearly beat the Yankees tonight.

Yes, I know the Mets suck.

No. The delta is that they allowed the artists to buy more after the print window closed and erroneously released the numbers before that happened.

So he basically just changed the colors, pictures and text but left the formatting the same in photoshop. What a gig. Must be nice.

Funny to see the same people who attack people on the facebook group for bashing artists do the same thing hiding behind a name on a forum hey Tim. I guess others can pair and match cards but I can't.

I may be in the minority here, but I really like today's batch of P70 cards.

This will be my first 4-card sampler pack order. (I normally just order individual cards) but I really like today's lineup.
Thank you!

Thanks for joining us, Mr. Beck!

I get that Tim's comment was taken as a snarky dig, but it's obvious the cards are similar. Would you give us some insight into this particular pairing? As others have mentioned, 1982 seems rather random for a Hank Aaron card. The card looks nice, but I don't get it.

Been here since the start of P2020

I don't think there needs to be a reason why an artist has to select a specific year that ties with the player. Probably safe to say the vast majority in the set doesn't. A lot of the current players have vintage remixes with no ties but it's fun to put a current player with a past Topps IP. Cal Ripken was really well received in P2020 and i've had my collectors ask me if I could do another version of it with a new player.

Can you do a Mattingly and a Jeter version of your Project 2020 Mariano Rivera card?

That was going to be the one I purchased as a print but Topps never got that far.

Man conspiracy theories have really gotten out of hand these days.

So DJ Skee goes "wow! I sold 3294? I'll take 616"?

I think the first numbers being the pre-four pack adjustment is the correct explanation.

I think Don C bought 616 copies of his Paige card but then bought 616 of the others as well to cover his tracks.

Cards are up. Yankee fans can celebrate their loss with a Judge while remembering the good teams of Jeter. Meanwhile Cubs fans can remember when Darvish played for them.

Max Scherzer is pitching for the Dodgers tonight so of course he gets a Nationals card.
