just sayin ;)

I just went through the thread, and didn't see any reference to this. Someone asked the question, I replied that I was (initially) told there will be, and that was it.

The cards weren't on the checklist


That checklist contained everything in the product except the strasburg auto, and that was cleared up.

If it isn't on that list, it isn't in the product.

Not true. In previous years, the AFLAC auto checklist was not found on the solicitation sheets for BDP (or even in later editions of the CL), yet appeared in them anyway.

Re: BDP Update - No AFLAC Autos This Year

I'm guessing this means they're going to insert them into a later product. Topps simply can't let Harper's AFLAC autos sit in their warehouses forever.

2010 Bowman Sterling? 2011 Bowman?

They will probably cut them up and insert them in 2011 Topps Debut.

I believe that's only for those players who haven't signed an autograph contract with Topps. Pretty sure Harper will sign with them before then, if he hasn't already.

Topps may not get Harper to sign, there are never any guarantees when it comes to Topps and autograph contracts.

TBD's 1st year cards are big sellers, don't knock them. I know a guy who made a mint for his Super. TBD is da man.

Makes the product sound a lot crappier.


AFLAC autos have represented a very small piece of the total value of bdp the last couple years, even when guys like Heyward were in there.
