2011 Bowman Platinum USA Autos are live !

[MartinFFcollector]

Here's mine-

No team bag so many fell out of topload. Not the best collation.

 

[Jaypers]

They're not serial #d, are they?

They're not serial #d, are they?

None of mine are.

The backs are black/gray so chipping/edge wear is a issue.

 

[hoopster3977]

You will like the Gausman.

I checked my redemptions last night and it also showed that the Platinum USA auto's where being shipped.

 

[MartinFFcollector]

I just redeemed another one right now and it still does not show the player you get.

 

[NECpilgrims8]

What a joke.

This cards look terrible. Nothing like making a big hype over chipped, non serial numbered, and mass produced paper autos.

I feel bad for anyone spending $30 per on these at release.

 

[Exposfan]

Awesome to see - I should have a dozen of these in my mailbox shortly. Hope the collation gets better as I was hoping for either going for a set, or some specific players. I have 5 more that I am waiting to be shipped.

Got a Marrrero in the box today.

I like them to be honest, simple yet attractive on card autos..

You mean the joke is the people spending $30 at release for a card that they know nothing about, hoping that Topps makes it worth that $30 they are spending.

A bit of advice-don't buy until you know what you are actually getting. Not directed at you, but I don't really feel sorry for anyone here. I thought about buying some of these-but given Topps track record, who knows what you'd get. I'd rather buy them once I know what they look like, print run, etc etc.

 

[Messier2]

Got a Hoby Milner...no clue who he is!

 

[MartinFFcollector]

FWIW- I bought 12 of these and averaged $21 each. Even though I listed some complaints, I'm not mad at Topps at all. Just wanted others to know about some collation and condition issues.

I like the gamble.

Heck these were alot cheaper than the $1480 I've spend so far on those Topps USA auto redemptions. :shock:

 

[Exposfan]

My buy-in was between $10.00 to $15 plus shipping. Looking forward to the first completed sales of Appel, Marrero, and see what others sell for more than I expect.

 

[Exposfan]

Got my first 10 envelopes today. As expected collation sucked, but I'll take it.

(7) Deven Marrero
(2) Kevin Gausman
(1) Erich Weiss

Based on what showing up on Ebay so far I am wondering if the preliminary list Topps sent out is correct, if there are Sp's or not. I am waiting on 6 more shortly.

Got a Hoby Milner...no clue who he is!

So did I. what a freaking joke.

He was in my mailbox today.

 

[tm decomposer]

anyone have a Marcus Stroman? I'd be interested.

 

[purplehaze67]

I had 7 redemptions, which turned out to be:

Kevin Gausman x 4
Brady Rodgers x 2
Hoby Milner x 1

Nice collation, Topps...

 

[Jaypers]

Still no Appel to be found. :?:

 

[sharktitanfan]

Is Appel the only one from the group that has not surfaced yet?
