No. The damaged one I sent back was 8/10.

I just won a sealed case of Chrome on eBay for just under $1600 total.

Is anyone else shocked so many of the listings for 15-20+ copies of the same Topps Now card are selling? $32 for 15 copies of card #22 Steph Curry. $51 for 20 copies of card #26 Curry/LeBron/Durant. $27 for 20 copies of card #30 LeBron James.

Someone paid $650 for 200 copies of card #26 Curry/LeBron/Durant. What are they going to do with 200 copies of the same card? It does look like graded copies of the card are selling, so maybe someone wanted to stock up to grade and flip.

The sealed packs for card #26 that may or may not contain the 1/1 autograph redemption have sold for wildly different prices, as low as $1,300 and as high as $3,500.

Then there are a bunch of "sealed pack" listings that sold in the $300-$500 range even though they're the regular Topps Now cardboard pack, not a guaranteed sealed pack. These sales make no sense. They have to be shill bids, scams, or sadly ununiformed buyers, right?

Yes possibly grading and selling over time as you say, though I hope they've priced in what graded copies will be selling for once everyone has graded these.

Agreed about those sealed pack scam listings - those people know what they are doing, and I hope too many people don't get taken advantage of who don't know what is in them.

I picked up one of the base cards of 0.60 on COMC.

The Xander arrived yesterday (took a little while due to the authentication process).

I've finally completed the set!

Thanks Bob!

Sorry for the small pic, still learning how to use Flickr. They're the US Flag /76 parallels. Once I saw them, I fell in love and had to have them lol.

I thought so. The US Flag parallels are beautiful across the board, in my opinion.

Agreed. Outside of superfractors, they're the best-looking parallels in the product.

I also agree that the flag cards are the best looking. I currently have 70/200 in my set.

I finally received my case of Chrome Olympics today. So much fun to open and a really nice case overall. Check out my thread in the box/case break section. Hit me up if interested in anything.

Here's the completed Olympic Champions US Flag #/76 auto set!



Sorry, I don't know how to enlarge the photo (maybe a better pic on my IG account, LookTradingCards).

I commented on your IG post. This is so awesome, and I have decided to put together this set as well. Picked up a Cherry tonight from eBay. Might take me a while to complete, but I will one day.

I think Topps will still throw us some bones here and there. Definitely few and far between, though.

So much fun.

You have some tremendous will power. It would have been opened the day I received it. If you open, message me if you want to sell your color refractors. I'll see if I need any for my sets.

How's the progress thus far? Pick up any other copies since then?

Just like bub said, Topps will periodically throw us some bones. Probably likelier to come from a new product than an established product (with the exception of something like Ginter X, though I'm expecting a price increase on that one this year).

Haha, same here! Don't even care if it "appreciates" or not, just love the product so much.

Noooooo don't put that out into the universe. We don't need $100+ Ginter X

Lol, I usually don't but I ordered 12 loose boxes and they sent me a sealed case so knowing the value in that has prevented me.

I opened probably a combined 3 other cases. I have a lot listed in my eBay store, and a fair number not listed. If you need anything, I'll cut you some great prices (ignore the BINs on most, I'd do slightly below comps).
