You want to 10x the hobby???? Make hobby wax more affordable. I can’t for the life of me what idiots are paying $800-$1000 plus for a box of Football cards. I’m a long time collector with disposable income but not a sucker. It can’t be affordable for only breakers.

Not a fan of unlicensed cards so I won’t be buying the product until the licensing kicks in.

Leaf has had crazy combo autos with curry/durant/etc/etc for a while on high quality cards. They’ve had all game used memorabilia cards of crazy players. The only knock has always been no license. But Topps gets a pass? I get wemby, Lebron, Levis, and stroud who are exclusive. But I don’t see why this is getting so much excitement when people have been trash talking leaf forever.

Right Tpot said it... They will Give Product to Whoever they Choose... and give them whatever they Choose... Makes me Want to Do the EXACT OPPOSITE 💯

This will kill over 50% of the small shops. Theres not enough revenue and people flow to force a shop to keep adding junk products that Topps has overproduced. (True end goal for Topps). This will be great for breakers though

While I get the desire of fanatics to be professional or whatever, i do hate the barrier to entry this creates and following from that the inevitable markup that needs to add. Feels like while theyre doing it for collectors, theyll be hurting actual collectors. Whats the number one gripe of people these days? wax prices and here they are pushing it higher. They can ease my concerns by offering wax direct at a cost price + x% type thing. I dont want to pay for your fancy stores, I want to be able to rip and collect

Right?...Right?......Right?...Right?...Right?......Right?.Right?...Right?......Right?.

right?

Smart thing to do would probably be granting licenses to a limited number of companies (maybe around 5-6) and then limiting the number of cards (of a player) produced in a year

What it means for collectors is that they will waste their money on more modern crap!

Why is Carter staring at the camera like that during Geoff’s intro 😂😂😂 that boy cheesing

We can say they are doing better however they sent my 2022 Topps heritage J-Rod red ink auto to the wrong address. Topps admitted they were in the wrong and 5 months later I’m still waiting for a resolution. I call every two weeks and get the run around.

Is there any talk of a 2024 Topps Bob Ross set? That was a huge W in 2023. If it is a stand alone it is even more valuable versus running it year after year.

Composite football sounds like Chronicles…which is a fun product.

The prices better reflect the the unlicensed

Also ive got so much mint Pogs from sports to cartoon cola

Once I saw Panini dutch auctioning hobby boxes on their website for like $10k, I knew they were done. Hopefully Topps brings the heat and sports cards can get back to being worth buying

Card shop 2.0 means raising prices for everyone. This entire industry is in a massive money grab. That's it. They don't care about the everyday collector.

How can they guarantee 100% redemptions get redeemed years down the road? It sounds great but isn't guaranteed

Redemptions are terrible. Autos change over the years, and can be noticeably different year to year. This will affect values. Not to mention the possibilities of death, injury, or other circumstances to affect the athletes ability to fulfill the autograph.

Hey guys, I’m trying to understand what it means by unlicensed? How does that work?

@jambilardi

14 күн бұрын

I think it means that whoever wins the license bidding (which is Panini at the moment), they get to have the logo of the teams on the image of the card. In this case, since Panini has the license, Topps can’t use the NBA team logo on their products.

Never trust a grown man that uses “super” to describe everything.

Lower the Prices so lower to middle class can afford it

I have 2 different card shops near my house. One tries to sell $70 more on hobby boxes than normal. The other one is normally spot on. Crazy to me. I have never bought a single card from a card shop because they are like $60 over what the should be. That's why I was hoping to have cards HQ in AZ

My local card shop is trash. Fanfare in Kalamazoo MI. No negotiating and way over priced. Tried to sell me a raw 88 jordan for $200 and it was way off center. Shops like this kill it for me

Killing small market card shops...that's not good. Fanatics is looking to shrink the card ship market for their efficiency benefit. Don't sugar coat it.

Topps has been known to over produce and flood the market.. down grading the hobby.. I think, unless they can limit topps production, this is a mistake.

Right? No left

Best sports card collector ever!

Not sure how contracts for autos work, but I feel like if a young guy gets HUGE, it's not worth his time to stop and sign a bunch of autos. Maybe they can make it a sliding scale. If 2 years later he hasn't signed, but the cards are worth TONS OF MONEY now, he should have to supplement that cost if he doesn't sign?? Some guys get so big, they would probably rather give back the $25,000 or whatever they would get paid to sign 1,000 autos on their day off.....

😂😂 so topps wants to not have anymore local shops. Not everyone has the currency to spend like you guys to improve. Local shops barely makes enough to pay the bills. If topps stop sending local shops there allocations wat you think gonna happen. Their trying to monopolize the card industrial. If you can't sell it locally then we have it on our web site for cheaper.

Point blank: If it's unlicensed... It just looks like a Chinese knockoff item .. unlicensed stuff ... whether you can see it or not ... Isn't worthy a penny to me. It looks fake. Pay for the license or bust. No thanks

They should hav redemption at big shows.
