Aaaaaaaaaand back then I bet you could get either a refractor or shuffle for about 20 bucks hahahaha. Those days are long gone. RIP

I believe the xfractors are rarer than the base refractor. Would love to know the print run!

Other group subs from the same person sent in at the same time are beginning to pop so I'm crossing my fingers it will be within the next month. But yeah, probably.

Are those eBay sales? Looks like it missed the one I got on 13 Oct for 3.99 + .93 shipping.

That one really stung you, huh? Just let it go, man. It's baseball cards.

Where are we thinking these are at? Never get talked about and seem to be all locked up in PCs since I can't find a completed sale anywhere. Anyone like to ballpark a guess?

Im just not a fan of your soap box. I also don't care for your fake moral high ground routine. Back to baseball cards, I go.

Can anyone confirm the print run from xfractors vs refractors?

i dont think the x's are numbered. the refractors are not numbered

retail really throws off the numbers IMO

Do you have a moment to talk about our lord and savior, Jefferson Burdick?

To me the xfractors are the best of the non autos because they’re the only ones with some sort of differentiation from the others. If the numbered parallels were actually colored as opposed to just a small stamped color in the top corner I would have dove head first when they released. That shuffle card in complete red would be so stinking awesome.

I doubt anyone knows for sure but based on my rough pack odds I guesstimate.

6600 Base
660 Refractor
560 xfractor
12 Wave

Topps is my guiding light! I only listen to their social media & sales teams.

Someone check my math

Shimmer Autograph's are retail exclusive (1:634 packs)

Auto Checklist is 62 cards

634 * 62 = 39308 packs

39308 packs / 4 packs per box = 9827 boxes

4 xfractors per box * 9827 boxes = 39308 total xfractors

39308 xfractors / 100 card checklist = 393 xfractors per player

If it is wrong, I blame my public school education

I thought the checklist was 400 cards?

Shimmer auto numbered to 5....so 5x

[towerymt]

62 autos on the CL, x 5 of each = 310 total shimmer autos

falling every 634 packs. so 196,540 total blaster packs

no real need to divide by 4pk/blaster, only to then multiple 4 x-fractor per blaster.

196,540 total blaster packs = 196,540 total x-fractors

400 card base checklist

196,540 / 400 = 491 x-fractors, per card on the checklist.

One raw sold at auction in Sept for only 700$. Discussion was that its not higher because it's an insert card.

[Snakeonia]

Never forget, think I got pats on the back for not winning and id be able to get it cheaper one day.

Haha! Thanks a bunch! Right when I saw the card, I immediately thought the photo was amazing. I actually had a chance to buy the “wave parallel” for $299, but silly me thought that was too much at the time. I never saw one pop on the market again.
