Topps 582 Montgomery Club

[anusinha]

checklist is nice at least

[guru]

Very happy with my set

came in today

[22emmittfan]

kind of ho hum on this set. seems kind of boring. probably my least favorite one so far

[RaceDog]

Just opened mine...I like them, just wish it were a thicker card stock.

I like the set. They missed my favorite in Devers, and no Red Sox at all which is fine. The amazing part is 3 Angels and 2 Padres. I get all 5 of the players obviously, but those are 2 poorly performing teams occupying 25% of the set. Just noticing.

Chapman would have been nice as well.

[boston12]

Very underwhelming set. Card stock is incredibly thin.

Overall I have liked the product received to date. But their communication and roll out has left a lot to be desired

[cardsforever]

I received mine day.

Nothing great, but at least they included some key rookie cards.

So I'm confused here - did Topps forget the "vote on the subjects," set? I just realized we were only promised (and have received) 2 Sets with Autos and seems we are only due the "Big Set"; did something change? Am I reading it wrong?

This product is so far down their priority list. It's like it was dreamed up by an intern who is long gone and they're just mailing the sets, barely.

Read the first ~10 posts on this thread... people can't even decide how many sets we receive from the one communication (a long-gone webpage). And Topps hasn't mentioned Montgomery Club or emailed anyone since the offering, other than selling the $1000 packs.

I would be SHOCKED if there is any sort of vote, and doubly shocked if the vote meant anything.

And does it matter? I'd renew again at the same price as it is, and I suspect most members are with me. So... no, it doesn't matter.

Like every other product they offer, they're printing money right now and any sort of customer service is viewed as unnecessary.

Got my set the other day. Aren't we supposed to get some sort of big complete set with the special Montgomery Club Stamp?

Just got an email from a Topps about voting for the last set

[okumeister]

Haven't proceeded with voting yet, but first page is choosing design among 3 options.

This was what I was wondering as well.....very confused by that.

Here are the options for design:

[okumeister]

They want Aaron Judge to be on the set so bad that they list his name twice as an option...

Option #1 and #28

They specifically called this the last set but it could mean the complete set ships prior to this one. Just a guess

[cardbored]

Just voted. As far as design, I chose option 3. My 20 players were mostly HOFers with a sprinkle of rookies (Vlad, Tatis, Alonso) and current stars (Trout, Acuna). I'm hoping for a Ken Griffey Jr card in the set.

[Yaga]

I voted option 1. Design actually looks really cool. Picked mostly rookies and a few stars. Got a hunch that's what most people are going to do.

It would be nice if they informed us about the big factory set. This email makes it sound like there's nothing else. And isn't it coming up to the date we signed up? November of last year I think? Are they going to ship out two sets in the next month or so?

never got an email

The design choices are odd. The examples are even more odd. Is the plan to have the player in the picture match the card or are we going for mystery. Option 1. Mets logo and Giants player
Option 2. McCovey was not white nor on the Twins. In inset picture doesn't look like Stretch either.
Option 3. Paul Warfield is the name, a Charger is the pic, and a basketball is in the background?

What the hell is going on?

Then you get to pick 20 players out of a possible 100. 100 players and only 1 A's player, Chapman. Frank Thomas is on there, but I am not counting that. I will write in I guess, but what good will that do?

This is probably the best post i have ever seen. The last one of the football guy with the basketball background is spot on.

[daviswr7]

that full set is why i bought in so it better better be coming...

[anusinha]

Id do the football guy with the basketball background just for the LOL

[yrocks2001]

Just voted but the choices were kind of odd. The designs look like they were pieced together from magazine clippings like a serial killer would do.

I was also under the impression we got to vote on the autographs in the set not the base cards. I could totally see Topps adding extra players as the autograph in the set which would be not cool.

[SethMurphy]

I voted option 3

Picked the key rookies (Tatis, Vlad, Eloy, Alonso, Keston) in the players with all of the biggest marketable stars (Judge, Trout, Acuna, Bellinger)
