In just using jumbo odds,
The odds on getting 1 pack, would be 1 in 41 cases

Not sure where you came up with that number. Weren't there around 10k cases produced, so 1 per case. Seems reasonable to me.

IP Address would be no different than households. I go to my neighbor, mother-in-law, my sister, etc...
But you would still need to open the boxes fast and this way I think the packs would be gone faster than mailing.

Yah, but requires a bit more navigation.

So household and IP address.

But it makes it more fair to people on the West Coast because of mailing time.

sorry math was off, I divided by 1000, instead of 10000, and used 10 boxes instead of 8...so its about 1:5.2 cases...

and I was just using the jumbo odds as if there was not retail or hobby boxes

333931 * 15 (diecut auto 1/1) / 12 packs / 8 boxes = 52,176 cases / 10000 = 5.2

I sent mine regular mail on Thursday and they arrived Monday. Luckily I just made the cutoff.

My buddy sent his priority on Thursday and they didn't get there until Monday as well. But I always knew priority was a joke.

When should those who are getting their redemption packs expect to see them, since the quota is now filled? Did Topps say?

Here's what they received for wrappers yesterday at Topps:

Mine arrived yesterday so I hope mine are somewhere in there and get my 2 packs

They should do away with giving them away for free.

They're wrappers, through them out

Lotta households out there

It's a household name

What do they do with the wrappers anyway? Recycle them for chrome cards or something?

again, any word on when packs get shipped out? I can't remember last year's timetable for arrival, but I do recall Houdini getting far more than he should have while numerous others got shorted

There has got be something wrong in that math. There is no way that 52,000 case of this stuff were made.

Thanks Topps! I'm done with "wax" boxes...

jbrown · May 15, 2013

My packs were delivered on May 11th but not picked up until May 13th. Hopefully I get mine this year.

Any update on the delivery of blue wave packs?
