Still no shipping notification.

Same. "Processing" dont say you will ship the 11th if you aren't shipping the 11th. Or 12th, or 13th, or 14th, or 15th....

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.

Put them in a box, don't label it, forget it for 6-7 years. Then you can start one of those dumpster diving threads where you strike it rich!

Exactly this. They could have said "shipping begins 9/11" instead of "ships 9/11".

Swipe79 · 09-15-2020, 03:40 PM

I think it said "starts shipping on September 11th"

The CC page says: per the listing, the cards begin shipping on September 11th, 2020

Opened mine. Highlights in the attached picture. Also got a Lux RC that I forgot to include.

Vet base highlights (not pictured): Acuna. Tatis. Soto.

okumeister · 09-15-2020, 03:49 PM

Nice breaks.
The die cuts look awesome.

txrngr34 · 09-15-2020, 03:55 PM

My raffle box (MC order still processing).

All for sale or trade...going to BST shortly.

Chris P · 09-15-2020, 03:58 PM

I got a shipping email late last night, but my order still says Processing. The only other thing I have pending with Topps is a Bo Bichette Redemption which still states pending. I'm assuming it's the Baller Box but not sure

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.

Wow, incredible box...Great choice in Opening...Thank Roberts Die Cut is Money all day!!! CONGRATS!!!

YanksBillsFan · 09-15-2020, 04:00 PM

Wonder how the decision to sell vs rip is affected as we see more breaks like we saw in the Finest thread.

These boxes that have been in the thread today look great...money makers for sure on most if not all of them vs the short term flip...Long term flip, not sure yet will have to see more of a sample size to see if the frenzy will meet or exceed that of Flashback.

speedyjg13 · 09-15-2020, 04:07 PM

Wow, the die cuts look pretty!

erock02 · 09-15-2020, 04:15 PM

The more I see these cards the more I like them. Refractors, Die Cuts, Inserts all look really good.

cj828282 · 09-15-2020, 04:34 PM

Looks like issues with parallels and inserts not in some boxes per Phils tweet.

Looks like some are getting shorted 2 parallels in exchange for a die cut.

Yaga · 09-15-2020, 04:42 PM

Anyone have a color BB refractor and a color TC refractor that they could take a pic of side by side? I'd be curious to see how different they look

Very True but as long as the die-cut is a LuBob...I am perfectly ok with that!!

callou2131 · 09-15-2020, 04:43 PM

No doubt!!! Great break!

8 boxes and no parallels or inserts. I will be afraid to open boxes.

True, but some boxes are going to be loaded if this is the case.

Unless Topps produced more than 8400 boxes.

Swipe79 · 09-15-2020, 04:52 PM

NM see it now.

jimmyjam1973 · 09-15-2020, 04:58 PM

My order still says processing, eventhough they charged my CC already. Sure hope I get my one lonely box I was lucky enough to win the chance to buy. These look great.
