2012 Bowman Sterling Box Toppers...

metallicalex777 · Dec 21, 2012

Hey Guys!!!

I was wondering if any of you know rarity/value on the 2012 Bowman Sterling Box Toppers. I was in a box break at the LCS today and won the random dice roll for the topper that came out of it

I see there are only 5 on the checklist and there are only 4 up on ebay which makes me think they are quite rare. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

These cards are just above the size of two normal size cards. I custom cut an Ultra Pro page and taped it in between two 4x6 cases:

Thanks for the look everyone and again, any help would be greatly appreciated!

Where are the toppers? I opened a new box at my LCS and there wasn't one in there.

That is why these seem so rare. There have been multiple cases opened here on FCB alone and I don't think I have seen one hit at all.

Boo to making them just a little oversized. Either Regular size or 5x7 works better IMO...

And Congrats on the Win!!

No posted odds?

Good idea! I didn't look at the box or the pack odds...maybe someone can post it up?

Not often but I dropped in last Sunday. Got a Jumbo box of BDPP. Didn't go as well as yours

I also go to West Coast, but usually just to pick up supplies and a couple packs. What are their box prices like? I don't see them marked. If they are near what it would cost me to get it with 2-day shipping from Blowout or D&A I'd sure like to support a local business. Though sales tax here is pretty dreadful.

I don't know odds either, but I pulled a triple with Almora/Dahl/Hawkins.

These aren't numbered, either.

I think they are tough, my shop owner opened two cases and didn't pull a topper. Congrats on yours!

They're usually pretty high. If you ever make it to shows (one in Factoria next week) Dave Wah has good prices.

Dave Wah also doesn't search packs; of all of the Oakden show gang, he's the only one I would trust not to search. He also has very fair box prices. Too bad I will be in Michigan next Saturday... I only live 4 miles from Factoria.

Yep I buy stuff from him when I go to shows, but I avoid driving into Seattle or Bellevue at all costs so I usually just make it to the rare Auburn Supermall shows and the annual summer show in Shoreline.
