I knew better than to wait on Belle... like most releases, it is a flood at the start and then they dry up quick. I am lucky to have now every Belle card from the release, including 1/1s.

The nicer Goldy's are few and far between now...wish I had picked up one of the Red autographs when they were around.

I tried to avoid them honestly as I wasn't excited about any of the players selected to represent Milwaukee. Then I grabbed a Gold Jean Segura on the cheap just to see one in hand. Now I am filled with regret but I got a Red on the way :)

Knowing Topps I'd be shocked if it didn't return. If something is well received they will definitely shove it down our throats in weird and twisted ways until it is fundamentally nothing like what we enjoyed in the first place and then we hate it but continue to buy it for 6 more years

I would expect it to be back for 2015. As an offshoot of what [MENTION=2212]Brewer Andy[/MENTION] said above, I expect that they will ruin the product in its 2nd year, as they usually do with a popular new product.

Same here. Finally the Padres have players worth collecting this year...

Is there any confirmation yet as to the number of stripes made? Guesses were 5/ to /10. I think by now if it were 10 people would know. Maybe I missed it but if someone knows, let me know please.

Yeah it is getting dry. I passed on some in December that I thought were too high at the time...kicking myself now. Also would have gone after the Tektonics insert if I had known how nice they looked!

I say 10 if those are my two options.
I'm looking for that one player collector to say they in fact saw more than 5 of their player. The only thing close I saw someone say they saw at least 5 but could not say for sure one was re-listed or resold.

How could anyone ever say a card was not resold? If you're wanting conclusive proof beyond any doubt I guess you'll have to find a hoarder or a player collector community like juangone.com (only two showing to save you a trip).

The shatter stripes I would guess at 5. I mean still two Gwynns unless a ton of people holding them. Only 1 of 5 of the blue also surfaced

makes sense there could be drying up. I have seen videos/posts of lots of boxes busted, I even busted one box, and I did a price check on a box after seeing this drying up comment and the box prices have increased about $10-15 from where I bought mine or they are out of stock, It appears Tek is popular enough that decreasing supply is increasing box prices instead of the normal secondary market activity you see from a release after some time has passed.
