Hell no. Blasters at $40 online presale. There is no value in that and hobby went up to $190 plus tax upon release. I'm out on buying any wax of it. They added more parallels and as Phil said over 150 different autographs which dilutes things even further. I'd buy singles in off season when prices drop and maybe an MVP buyback lot if priced fairly. Thanks for sharing

Topps was moving that way before Fanatics bought in. Check out how much Bowman autograph checklists have increased since 2018. 2020 Bowman Draft was wild. The prospects auto checklist burgeoned to 135 which was a significant increase on the year before. 4th and even 5th rounders suddenly had a 1st Bowman auto and that has continued. Insert autos also increased. Topps may not have gone the full 80+ parallels like Panini Prizm but it has been steadily increasing the print run in all products - especially the popular ones - year on year since I started taking notice in 2018. We reached the tipping point a few years ago imo. The value is absolutely atrocious and no amount of spin can make it otherwise.

@1stBowman21 күн бұрын
The pricing is so crazy given the dilution and has to be a direct result of breaker demand. As mentioned, the odds of pulling a Delly auto is something like 1 in every 300 hobby boxes yet the card may command only $500 on the singles market. So you only triple your money by hitting a 300-1 shot. How bad is that? Opening wax is not just a little bit worse than a slot machine. It is much, much worse than a slot machine. It makes zero sense to open wax these days. Yet breakers are mowing through this diluted crap.

Great breakdown of Topps Chrome. I think my concern is Topps is turning this into more like Prizm and copying Panini instead of sticking to there guns and doing the opposite. I usually buy two hobby boxes (keep 1 and open 1), but this year, will probably just open one. One of the most under appreciated inserts from this set is the Radiating Rookies. Really tough pulls and good looking cards. Last years Gunnar Henderson has only 135 graded at PSA. Until next time....

And to balance that hobby I paid up in early 2020 for a 2018 hobby box that had two shocking autos plus the best base rookie was Flaherty. Not kidding. Beyond belief how bad that hobby box was. Not even a Robles or Devers rc. And I paid close to $300USD for that box. I've always preferred Bowman because over time some of the prospects can blow up. It's a slow burn.

I have to consider biting the bullet on Breaker's Delight boxes, since that is the only way to get the Robin Yount auto (according to the odds). Also, how can you put Ryan Ruocco on a card and not have a Bob Uecker? I did pre-order one hobby and one jumbo (which I have traditionally done since I got back into the hobby in 2018). But, it is crazy how much more I spend relative to 2018 compared to today. Normally, I have purchased a couple more boxes at The National for the special silver packs, but I am wondering if I have to consider other less-costly (and less desirable) boxes for the silver pack promotion. I saw an interesting take (I think on blowout forums) that I somewhat agree with for collecting: flagship is now early 90s flagship, chrome is now flagship, sapphire is now chrome, and gilded is the new sapphire.
@SpitballinCards21 күн бұрын
Chris here - that’s a really interesting take. I’m curious where topps/fanatics will take gilded in the ext few years. It’s a great looking set. But all the different Sapphire sets have definitely diluted that product for me.

Listening to the four of you, it all adds up to a simple fact. Topps isn't asking the question that you are answering, which is, "is it worth ripping?". The question they are asking is: will breakers be able to sell the product. I disagree with Scottie that the breakers won't be able to sell it. They will. Having watched a lot of Sapphire the breakers are close to being maxed out but not quite yet. It is coming though and Fanatics business model is not gonna work.

I will buy the singles and the completed set for 20$ a month after release. we are seeing the true new Toppnatics. and they will do some sort of marketing to try to hype us into the product, but im done.

Open8ng a 2018 topps chrome jumbo is crazy at $2500. Even hitting a numbered Acuna or Ohtani your down on the box. Hitting a Acuna auto and your still down. 2018 at 2500 is not worth it ever. There’s value in boxes being sealed bc of rarity. Not so much bc of the ROI/contents.

The key is not to open. I still have mine sealed. Sealed wax IF the rookie class is stellar can be a good way to buy and hold. The difference back then was you didn't have a watered down product like it is now. I knew a guy who once opened 2000 Contenders expecting a Brady, didn't get it. That box today likely would be in the $15,000 range if he had kept it sealed.

Its not a logistical nightmare to sign on-card....It's laziness. Make them rare. Cards in 90's-2000's made it happen..

Chris here - exactly. Laziness and cheapness.

You guys weren't too negative, but to be fair the baseline of this show is slightly negative. I am excited for the cards coming out of this set.. That is the only positive that can be said, everything else about it is worse than previous years, and I am a glass half full person who loves to rip. I got a dual Acuna/Riley auto and it was sticker autos. The guys are together 250 days a year and can't sign the same card. I have zero hope for any of the dual legend autos.

Good feedback. Till we get sponsors we reserve the right to be slightly negative. 😉 Thanks for the insight into the dual experience

Chris here - that dual auto would’ve been sick, but also broken my heart. Why on earth would it be stickers?! I like topps chrome and I’m excited for the release but I won’t be ripping it. Thanks for watching!

Not a dig, I am here for the honesty. Some of the more Topps affiliated people I watch are pumping this product while ignoring the glaring issues.

Fanatics has found yet another way to screw the hobby community, we need to stop purchasing certain sets to show them they can't get away with it

I cannot believe I'm saying this about Chrome. The set is trash.

Chris here - it’s so frustrating to know I’m not going to rip any of it.

Fanatics = garbage. The end is near if these guys are bearish! 😂
