NEW RELEASE! 2024 TOPPS ARCHIVES HOBBY BOXES!

[@mike_0213]

Instead of spending the money buying blasters or hobby boxes, when I got back into collecting after about 35+ years, I just started on eBay and Facebook and bought already graded cards of the rookies I wanted for my PC. I got the Judge, Soto, Ohtani, Volpe, and a few others all in PSA 10's. I have been going on a couple Facebook auctions and buying anywhere from $25 to $200 worth of cards and putting 90% right back up for sale on eBay and I am making some money. Nothing to quit your job for, but I really do it more for the fun of buying and selling and when I win something that I like I just add it to my PC. I plan on in the Spring going to my parents and getting down ALL my cards from the 80-'s and 90's and see what exactly I have and see if maybe anything is worth selling or grading and keeping for myself. Thanks for sharing your love for baseball cards with us all and I hope you have another great year and congrats again on the wedding and the new baby coming in the Summer.

Sounds like a smart way to build your PC!

[@mike_0213]

@@JabsFamily Yea because my cards I collected as a kid in the late 80's are 99% gone because my bother sold all the good rookies over the years after I left the hobby around 1995

[@aaronnaylor6129]

This being an $180 box is nutty. The collector's boxes being as high as $140 is even worse.

[@CF_Fun_Rips]

I agree, this product is barely worth the retail price. People buying on the second market are nutty as well.

[@shamwoah3474]

My hobby shop had it at 120, and I’m thinking “what a steal!”. And i ended up getting an insane box! Brian Roberts and Mark Mulder on card, and they were both not numbered! Needless to say I was very happy with my purchase.

[@CF_Fun_Rips]

@@shamwoah3474 I almost bought it at retail but backed out, glad you got some good hits at reasonable price.

[@Drthclown]

I miss pre-covid prices for boxes. Ripping personal boxes is not affordable anymore.

[@cameronfry]

Yep. Last decade was the time to buy. Now is the time to sell. Gotta hope the bubble bursts at some point.

[@CesarinAZ]

Got mine on the MLB Shop website. It was one of those "entry drops", if you are selected, they bill you for the product. It was 69 dollars for the hobby box, crazy to see how expensive this runs.

[@joshcate2060]

$200 for a box that should be $80 at best is insane.

[@christophersexton4192]

So basically, you got $20 in cards at best. Even at msrp these are a joke. People need to stop fueling this screwed up market.

[@cbaldwi11]

Why are people paying so much to enter breaks for a low end set like this? Absolutely bonkers.

[@holycards_1]

I got a whole case and opened it myself got it from a reginal rep for 129 a box I have to say that this is the best box for your money if you can find it for 140 or less, I know some lcs have them for as low as 130 all depends upon your lcs low.

[@Justin-r1s]

I love these archive cards! This year's is the best by far!

[@devinwalk6513]

Those pink parallel 1994s give off Miami Vice/Grand Theft Auto Vice City vibes. I don’t like the base version but the parallel version is 🔥

[@mezonine28]

I was just randomly thinking of Van Slyke the other day too. That would be a great pull!!

[@stanleyfishburne2990]

Great video Jabs!!!🎉 Topps Archives Baseball is pretty decent!!🎉

[@Hockey9293]

$200$ for that!?

[@houstonasterisks7561]

You wouldn't say that if you get a hit.. if hits came out of every box the value will be lost.. not every lottery ticket is a winner buddy

[@Hockey9293]

@houstonasterisks7561 Buddy? Yeah I know how it works.... 🙄 Just saying how 200$ is too much for that. Especially how Topps releases it for $70 less then it immediately gets jacked up in price on websites.

[@Pandazfight]

Hi jabs i watch your videos im in la just praying that the fire goes out love vids

[@aaronkinsky5386]

Congratulations. Awsom we love ❤️ the Hrucker card

[@SavannahNedeff-ow9jr]

DO YOU KNOW HOW TO SPELL!!!????

[@RetailRipper]

nice Jared Jones auto. i like the On The Break and Own The Game designs.

[@MbgFire2067]

I got my 2 hobby boxes today and QC is awful! Scratches and blotches and print lines are abundant and even more noticeable on those foil cards. The collation is ok in one box, HOWEVER, my second box was almost identical to the first. I only have a handful of cards that aren’t doubles. This is one of my favorite releases so I’m bummed about it. I noticed Topps sold out fast yet again (shocker) and prices are already flying up there. Ridiculous.

[@dcfanchris]

I’ve always liked Archives. That Kruk’s a nice looking card. Might not have put him on the OTG insert but definitely a Fan Favorite for sure!

[@shawnmyellenic]

So thia is weird. Quinn Priester has a RC in this with the Red Sox. But his auto is with the Pirates.

[@tylerreed442]

I love this design

[@SmokinSportsCards]

Hey Jabs, I’ve been subscribed since about 80,000 subscribers and now my channel is at 300 subscribers as I just started so I’m hoping to be as good as you one day

[@WaffleHouse247]

Subscribed! Keep it up!

[@houstonasterisks7561]

I pulled a 1/1 trout out of these last night

[@thexytheck1477]

The cards are nice quality and look really good

[@Yankees1600]

Is there any news about Topps chrome platinum? That’s probably my favorite set outside of Ginter

[@thexytheck1477]

Blaster boxes at Walmart today got a numbered Jose out of it

[@dpappfisk]

I opened a case today (10 boxes) and was missing 11 autos!! WTF Topps

[@hunterbuescher7452]

Love that Jared jones autograph

[@jeffreycrawford376]

Put it Down fera sec, homey! Sophia Gotchoo! ❤️ (Every breaker needs a good meal!!!)

[@300gjw]

1st year I won’t be buying boxes. $170 for a Fred Stanley and Dontrelle Willis auto won’t do it for me this year.

[@scottferneza2285]

Same. Always loved archives. 140 max they should be. Not worth it

[@CoolMjmj2013]

Hi jabs big fan of your content

[@vincesoto2316]

So is Paul skenes autograph only on one version of archives??

[@davedrago703]

I believe this is true when I looked atcthe checklist. The autograph checklist is not that great.

[@vincesoto2316]

@davedrago703 ok was just making sure.. Think imma pass on archives.. Not a fan.. Thanks

[@davedrago703]

​@vincesoto2316 Yes, I feel the same. I have $60 in buybacks and a gift card to my LCS. I might get some singles if they have anything worth picking up.

[@petegolowatsch2767]

2nd box looked better than the 1st

[@Yankees1600]

Really nice low numbered cards in there

[@michaelevans3641]

Jabs is the best

[@popsdyer731]

Fan favorite autos are mostly a nice way to say filler auto!! Still, like Archives a lot

[@altonT]

I miss the junk wax era. When you could buy a box at retail price and no one jacked up the prices 40% or more.

[@montrealsports29]

And it cost less than $20 for a box that had over 500 cards!

[@StewieGriffin111]

And then none of the cards were actually worth anything because there were 1000000 each of them

[@altonT]

@StewieGriffin111 I have just started to grade my cards from the 90's. Any 10 I get is a $100 bill. There may be a lot of them but not in perfect condition. Turned a card that had been in a box for 30 years into a $250 card.

[@StewieGriffin111]

@@altonT that’s because of their age. If the cards now were printed as much as they were back then you’d have to wait 30 years before they’re worth anything

[@altonT]

@@StewieGriffin111 you said they are all worthless. Now you are saying they have value due to age. Which is it? If you think they are not printing millions of base cards currently, you may be disappointed in the reality.

[@DriveForShow]

I just watch the videos now…A lot cheaper than buying these overpriced products.

[@guruurur8994]

2024 MLB Archives 1990 Batting Leaders Autographs 90BLA-RY Robin Yount, Milwaukee Brewers 1 of 1 How much is this carth worth ?

[@weaponXwing]

more TOPPS 🗑️ for a ridiculous amount of money....

[@jediknight52501]

Topps unveiled the new 2025 design, thoughts?

[@joes3-e13]

That's ridiculous when someone comes into a store & takes all of that product, it should only be 1 per customer. Just another flipper who should get a real job & stop ruining the hobby for all us collectors who enjoy baseball cards.

[@bstew5445]

These boxes and release belong in the 🗑️

[@ObsessedCollector]

Shame the hobby is a lottery/casino now.

[@stanleyfishburne2990]

I understand what you Jabs mean about Topps baseball 1994 it was kinda cheesy for the design!!🎉 I didn't like it either nor Topps 1995

[@ghosthbg]

🔥🔥🔥

[@MichaelA10385]

I’m sorry but that box isn’t worth $200. Guess I’ll have to wait until they go on sale.

[@shomkittling5376]

Good

[@VanslykefanCards]

Get out of town, Jabs! Not Andy?!

[@kenfett7070]

Topps, and along with the Target/Walmart vultures, have destroyed the hobby. Topps with the over-priced products and the vultures who swipe up all the cards at Target/Walmart who then double the price for re-sale make it nearly impossible to get any boxes at a fair price. I only live vicariously through Jabs to see the box breaks. I still have not found one box of 2024 cards at a Target or Walmart in over 40 stops. Not once. I collected from 1974 to 1994 and then got back in the hobby in 2023 breaking boxes. I am done already with the new releases. Opening an eBay store soon and gonna dump all that I got and get out completely. It is a shame that I will not be collecting in the future with my expected grandson. I'll save all my vintage cards for him.

[@michaelboling7159]

More and more and more overpriced products.

[@alvarhanso6310]

Disappointing to see they recycled the same boring photo of Frank Thomas from Stadium Club for this set. Not like we'd want to see the Big Hurt hurting a baseball, instead of staring off into space. Also, disappointed in the secondary market pricing on this. Hope fat packs are okay.

[@SavannahNedeff-ow9jr]

Hold on it released today? it's 2025!

[@StepHenSportsCards]

Archives has been a year behind since 2022 now I think.

[@SavannahNedeff-ow9jr]

Funny

[@jaybarnes8034]

Almost first.

[@ronfarrell08]

Bought a box today at my LCS for 149

[@Garry-h8v]

Ugly period. For 200 just go buy a couple real vintage and at least they keep thier value. This stuffs just fodder

[@PastPresentBall]

Saw QC on this was pretty bad during Strykers break this afternoon

[@TigerNZ]

Card company's are just money hungry. No, wander, all I can do is watch videos and dream of the time I could afford cards. 😢

[@nunzi83]

This is why a release like this, flagship, heritage etc are perfect. Many Affordable options.

[@TigerNZ]

@nunzi83 not really in today's economy. Not everyone has lots of spare cash to waste

[@aaronnaylor6129]

​@nunzi83 this isn't affordable at almost $200 a box

[@TigerNZ]

@nunzi83 oh and here in NZ 200bucks US ends up to be $356.85 yeah not cheep

[@nunzi83]

@ they sell multiple formats. Fat packs. Blasters etc. making entry point affordable for all different income levels
