Perfect opportunity for a PR person to reach out the player and cut Topps out altogether. (I hope that is what happens anyway.)

Very unfortunate that something like this happens to a kid, but I wouldn't be so sure that this isn't just a case of Topps not updating the item to out of stock. I'm sure those things went like hot cakes at $175, especially when he hit that 6th homer

Interesting to see what really happened, but I suspect he will get a bat now and maybe even more than what he was expecting, esp if Murphy sees this.

Topps tweeted earlier today that the sale will go forward.

Am I the only one that doesn't give a rats ass that they now want to honor the sale? True integrity is how you treat people when no one is looking, and Topps has proven time and again that they'd piss on each and every one of us if no one were ever looking.

I say that all the time. Integrity is doing what is right when noone is looking.

Shame on Topps

If you trade the updated article another collector was/is giving WS a bat too. So you can see there is good out there too.

Maybe the bats were "lost" in all the Topps Vault things that went missing and canceled.

I'm just waiting for Donald Trump to take credit for Topps finally doing the right thing.

Kudos to that other collector wanting to help the kid out.
