Interesting that you have to win the lotto to see the price. My Guess $650-$700

MC 582 offering @ $220 from Topps

interesting hopefully that's the price or lower. Also don't see any mention of autos on the box so doesn't like like they are guaranteed which could why price would be so low.

Go read the 582 thread, price sucks.

Huh? "Collect 660 Base Set cards featuring a pickup of Series 1 and Series 2 Baseball on exclusive Sapphire Chrome!"

Is there a checklist yet? Are they doing all of the cards in Series 1 and 2 in Sapphire?

Doesn't sound like a good buy at $220, not even at $150... I might do $75.... 660 cards and no for sure auto... pass

LittleJimmies · 09-05-2023, 04:15 PM

Really curious how you ended up at a guess of $650?!

Right. You get two parallels. So, what parallel do you want? Most of them will go for substantially less than $220.

I am prepared for EQL to break my heart...again

The street price from Topps/Fanatics will not be lower than the 582 pricing

Don't worry, I think if you want to buy these at $220 you'll have plenty of time to do so

bub838 · 09-05-2023, 04:35 PM

Lmfao $650, they’re $220 for 582.

ChefCurry312 · 09-05-2023, 04:51 PM

Probably an easy win if you enter. I’m passing at the $220/box MC price.
-Huge base set (660 cards) & only 32 cards per box
-No guaranteed autos (probably no autos at all)

SupermanBrandon · 09-05-2023, 04:53 PM

Keep bending over for them

rippev · 09-05-2023, 05:54 PM

Most of Monty Club is passing at $220. If you enter, you’ll ‘win’

BayAreaChris · 09-05-2023, 06:02 PM

Surprised they are doing a raffle. UEFA Sapphire was a raffle too and from my understanding was an easy don’t buy. They still never listed any on the site afterwards though.

theshowandme · 09-05-2023, 06:31 PM

At this point Topps can sell anything to these addicts

Bcr · 09-05-2023, 06:39 PM

I would be shocked if you entered and didn't win

DaryanLenz · 09-05-2023, 08:38 PM

I long for the days when everyone had better things to do than moan about prices and checklists.

Most of Monty Club is passing ? Have you polled everyone in the Montgomery Club or are you basing it on the 5 people who have posted in that thread ? I would say most are not passing. Some always do pass. Most will buy their two boxes.

Trueblue · 09-05-2023, 11:19 PM

Oldest trick in the book. Unjustified hype marketing will allow this product to sell a big chunk before people realize it's a POS. Then the rest to online distributors. It will probably "sell out" though.

ZappBrannigan · 09-05-2023, 11:24 PM

What’s up with all this raffling, entering, boys clubs bull sheet. Just get the product to my LCS so i can go buy a box.

Using common sense.

I prefer the logofractor design.

Trueblue · 09-05-2023, 11:33 PM

Not sure if any of you guys have pricing under your belt in your professional career, but the most lucrative part of a product life cycle is usually post launch where demand cannot be accurately measured. If you're able to create enough pent up demand in an exclusive or limited player product release, you can outperform output at higher ASP before the market catches on and prices sink. This is exactly what's occurring right now, masqueraded as a "we want to be fair to everyone " campaign. If Topps thought 100% of product would sell at SRP, they'd just pay the 3P vendor to guard against bots and drop it. Wake up.

When I saw EQL I thought it meant Ben Baller or Steve Aoki or Gary V got another product. Relieved to know it is just the raffle system.
