11/5/2015: Topps releases Topps Fire Metallic Edition Baseball as an online exclusive at Topps.com. The 35 card set is printed on standard size aluminum stock, features the same cool design from the wall art line and has a great checklist. I determine that this is a good investment and order one set for $249.99. Per the item description the set will ship in 10 days.
11/20/2015: On the tenth business day after my order Topps is now selling the set for $187.49 even though they still have not been able to fulfill any of the original orders. Per customer service not only has my order not yet been shipped, but due to "production delays" it has not even been produced.
11/30/2015: On the fifteenth business day after my order Topps is now selling the set for $174.99. My order still has not shipped.
12/2/2015: Nearly one month has passed and now Topps is selling the set for only $149.99, however Topps has informed me that my order did ship on 12/1/2015! The expected delivery date is 12/11/2015.
Thirty-six days later and already $100 in the hole I will finally have my cards. I of course already have regrets.
Please let my impatience be a lesson to us all. Do not order Topps.com exclusives on release day.
Do not make my mistakes.
