I Like that idea, I am going that direction for storage as well.

this is so true, and something that we as collectors have a difficult time with.

2018 wax prices are being manipulated worse then ever, and its horrible.

having said that, i have to remember that i dont have a T206 Wagner, so if i have to wait to own some of the 2018 stuff that i want to own, it WILL be OK

Ouch...graded cards could go for good money with all the quality problems everyone is having so far.

My Week 3 bundle just arrived and the cards look really good. Single order, though.

These have made me seriously consider doing PSA batches for my personal set.

kyle1707 · 04-14-2018, 02:13 PM

Looks like the massive amount of ohtani orders slowed things a bit..

I will be ordering week 6 the same day i receive week 3...

We are a hobby of instant gratification these days..

I'm still getting used to this

TwinsJake · 04-14-2018, 02:16 PM

0 for 50 on first batch of Happ

ThoseBackPages · 04-14-2018, 02:17 PM

IMO someone should have started a PSA subscription for these. said that pages ago

ThoseBackPages · 04-14-2018, 02:19 PM

Some keeper Markakis... even fewer Happ. And they somehow managed to ding all 3 cards in the 80th anniversary wrapper set I had in the order. I'll count them up and message Jeff tomorrow.

I think this guy needs to learn the difference between a copyright, a trademark and a patent.

I like what you did with the Living Set box.

Ferg1945 · 04-14-2018, 05:55 PM

Here are some pictures Paul at Casebusters (rockledgesportscards) posted - For those who wanna see what these look like str8 from topps.

I think the more you order the more issues you are going to have. When I ordered 10 bundles they included small foam pieces in the 50ct and I noticed my cards weren't too bad. Some still have a white corner. If you order 60 per of all 3 in the same order... they cram as many cards into the 50 ct holders and they might be the issue. Maybe more orders with less cards per order would mean better condition overall.

I have 3 20 ct lots I ordered for week 2 on the way. Ill see how those come. Did they cram 50 into one holder or did they do 20 in a 50ct with foam and ship me 3 boxes? Its being shipped to start via FedEx instead of USPS... so it might be the latter. Might be a box instead of mailer.

TwinsJake · 04-14-2018, 06:28 PM

Cards I received in 20 ct holders were no better than the 50.
