Absolutely.

Considering I'm still waiting for the 2nd Jeter card release, this delay is not a surprise.

Topps had a relist once they cancelled all the improper orders, so there are no excuses for Topps.
Also if Topps cancels your order for being oversold, they should put you in the front on the line for the next online exclusive product.

All you're gonna end up with is alot of wasted time on the phone. Mind you not only did they cancel my order of 2 boxes but I probably spent $7-8k on Topps Project cards in 2 months. Wouldn't the last orders you would cancel be someone spending thousands on your junk print on demand cards? But instead they canceled my order while filling orders for people that have never bought a single thing or only online exclusive boxes from topps.com.

I agree 100%. Cards are Way waaaaay last on my list. Just a fun hobby. They cancelled my one raffle of FLashbacks but refunded immediately and still sent the other 5. They’ve shipped all 3 my baller boxes already, but even if they cancelled those, that would have been ok. I would just expect the refund on those.

Like you said: Cards aren’t everything in life.

Who made that silly intro. ROFL

YouTheManNick · 09-15-2020, 02:33 PM

Got my box. Was planning on sitting on it a week or two to see how things play out, but after watching Houdini's video I'm now leaning toward opening asap once I finish eating lunch.

78yankees · 09-15-2020, 02:42 PM

My box should be here in an hour or so, on the fence with ripping.

It's a legit earworm though. I like Houdini a lot (such a grinder) but hate that intro jingle with a passion, as I'll find myself humming it 2-3 days after joining any of his breaks.

Hey maybe by the time I actually get mine, prices will increase.

Or maybe by the time I get mine, the market will be flooded and prices tank.

Still no shipping notification.

rpausch · 09-15-2020, 03:20 PM

Opened the box. Apparently Topps traded 2 of my parallels for an extra die cut, but I’m not going to complain.

I’m also a Brewers fan and I’m a Lo Cain short of the team set. Plus the Yelich refractor is a bonus.

Didn’t get a low numbered parallel either, but I think the die cuts will be more valuable then a mid-tier player in orange or red.

I’m happy.

Anybody with Lo Cain, please let me know.

He's in florida, seems most are getting them fast from the warehouse down there. He has quite a few mc memberships I believe between himself and I think his crew. Cool part about it with his crew is he'll pay them market rate for them I do believe - don't know how many of them actually collect cards.

Marking for if I pull one, I'll send it over. No shipping confirmation yet though.

Also, your lighting makes those gem cards absolutely shine and stand out. Congrats!

That's a cool thing to do, for sure!

I'm in GA. No shipping notification yet.

Thanks!

Also got 22 other rookies with the best of the rest being Gallen, Dunn, Aquino, and Puk.

Depending on the performance of the 2020 class, maybe have a future treasure to pull later. Also feel free to request other semi star or commons in exchange for Lo Cain.
