After getting outbid for most of the more attractive ones and over paying for the less desired ones I am putting the brakes after chasing these. Unless it's one I can't live without I will be picky for the rest of what pops.

I can understand that, absolutely. I bought three Thomas cards, and then quit collecting this issue due to cost because it's just way too expensive.

That is brutal! The most plentiful card is numbered to 5 copies!?

I am doing the same with Garvey and so far there have been 5 1/1s that have shown up on ebay, but several numbered to 99 or less.

I compiled this list, complete with images of all known Frank Thomas cards from 2015 Topps Archive Signatures. If you know of anything that I'm missing, please let me know so I can add it. Many thanks.

The count of Cansecos for me is at like ... 28. There is no way I can win them all, so I am just grabbing up as many as I reasonably can for decent prices. Because Topps has gone a bit nuts with 40+ releases this year, that is all we can do, I think! Heck, Dynasty has, I *believe*, 5 parallels, so there are 5 1/1's, 25 out of /5 and 50 out of /10. Sure, they are different poses, but I'm trying to be content with just one of each

I still don't have a sick /5 in my fold just yet though.

I haven't snagged any Edgars yet as I am waiting for the intial prices to come down..

So far I have seen the following:

1992 Topps xx/35

1993 Topps xx/41

1996 Topps xx/13

1998 Topps xx/25

1999 Topps Gallery xx/22

2003 Topps xx/15

Topps Stadium Club xx/16

Topps xx/26

I'll keep looking..

I started picking some Castillas and had the idea of going for one of each Topps regular set, but with this mess I won't finish it. I hate not knowing what was released. Not having an actual checklist beside a name.

We are their customers, so I wonder if we should start badgering them about releasing a checklist!

I tweeted it out to them at @tanmanbbfan - everyone feel free to retweet!

Been trying on a few Bernie's but there all 1/1 or 1/2 or crazy short printed yikes.

olerud363 · Dec 21, 2015

So far I've catalogued 32 Olerud's from ebay, with three 1/1's. Haven't noticed any new ones in a while. I might try to pick up one of the Bowman releases... 2001 Bowman Heritage probably.

I'd love to snag a Griffey 1/1 but they're all going for $1,000+.....going to play the wait and hope game

I'll definitely will

olerud363 · Dec 24, 2015

Now this is kind of silly. A "buyback" of a current-year card!

(Sorry for the bad scan. It was grabbed from the ebay listing.)

Well now, that takes the cake!

I think this one is really sweet, great card to use. Now if I can just get the seller to come back down to earth.

Bought this one. Outside of 2014 & 2015 Topps Finest Greats, this is the only other RJ Refractor auto ever. 9 other RJ cards listed/sold, all 1/1s. None of the others interest me, I just have no desire for a 1990 Bowman base card signed honestly, I know some people do though.

nkdbacks · Dec 24, 2015

I've been enjoying this set - quite a few cards I've wanted - including the first autographs of a couple ex-Diamondbacks, which is always cool. But it definitely is a bit gimmicky, technically they are all cards I could just get signed in person. I can't imagine how it is for some of you with 20, 30-some cards in this set.

I was digging all the Grace's since they were early career Topps base cards and looked good. But then this #1 /1 showed up - and it's a stinker. First time I've ever seen a Kmart Topps Card priced at $200

Like #olerud363 says, the new release pricing is too high, and they'll come down shortly, so I'm not jumping on anything yet.

mouschi said:
I *might* be alone in saying this, but I LOVE that they added in the kmart cards. I may like these better than the regular buybacks.

I have to agree with [MENTION=7453]mouschi[/MENTION]. You just don't see these cards anymore and for Topps to do a buyback 1/1 of this one is awesome! If I collected Mark Grace, I would be all over this one.

It says the page isn't available - bummer! What is it? Any way I can get a hold of whoever it is if I don't have it?

I can't get on that FB either.

This is nothing but a gorgeous card. It's my favorite of all the buybacks I've seen from modern era cards. Congrats on landing it for your collection.

I found another Frank Thomas card from this set and have updated my article. Still mostly 1/1's.
