Since all the cards have most likely gained value, I'm guessing the buyers are going to patiently wait and be thankful they ordered their cards through him.

If they cancel the money goes right back to Jake

I think JK5 may be the hardest working of the bunch. Hate him or love him, the amount of intricate detail he puts into every release is crazy.

Not to mention with how he is physiologically going to deal with losing money pre selling these cards versus making millions of dollars of profit.

5 months later? No way. This is a fairly large & competent company we are talking about here, not COMC.

Don't know, but what are you saying? Buyers should just shrug their shoulders and say "Oh, well"?

No, I'm not the fatman that weighs packs at Target or Wal-Mart.

He seems ok with it or otherwise he wouldn’t do it

Plus I’m sure he saves some for himself

The dude is sitting on two more 1/1's and already sold the Ermsy, I don't think he's crying all that much.

You trust that Topps sent you the right cards, without looking at them?

I want to get in on some more of the earlier shorter print runs, but just not sure which to pick! They all seem to have potential. This is insane.

Holy crap yes! Now maybe I can get back to the prime timeline, instead of the darkest timeline I'm currently inhabiting after the Captain of the USS Douchecanoe canceled my eBay order.

I’m guessing it would be easier to make a one touch then a ventilator though

I don't know what people are waiting for. This was a $30 card last week. Just $90 on Saturday (which is the point I sold one of mine), $200 yesterday and now about $300 today. I think $300 still sounds like a steal in a week.

Are you joking? Even if he has only presold lets say 50 each of the first 85 cards how much potential profit was that? What about on just the 35 that haven't shipped yet? Those 1/1's won't even make up for 1% of potential profit he has lost.
