2012 Bowman Announcement #2 - Wrapper Redemptions

2012 Bowman Baseball Wrapper Redemption

Topps has just announced it’s wrapper redemption program for 2012 Bowman baseball and it includes some great goodies for those who get them out in time.

From the news wire:

“The first collectors to send in 24 hobby or 7 HTA wrappers will receive a FREE 5-card pack of exclusive Blue Wave Refractor Parallel cards! And that is not all! Bonus autographed cards featuring hot prospects such as Josh Bell, Dante Bichette, Jr., Gerrit Cole, Matt Purke and many more have been randomly inserted into these packs making them even better!

There are only 10,000 of these exclusive packs so pick up 2012 Bowman Baseball on May 9th, rip it and send it right away to make sure you do not miss out! Once we receive wrappers for 10,000 packs we will no longer fulfill.”

You can send your empty wrappers to:

Bowman Blue

P.O. Box 2008

Duryea, PA 18642

Good deal

 

[gradedeflator]

any idea how long it will take to hit 10,000 fulfillments? I guess each case has 8 boxes, 12 packs each, so 96 wrappers which is 13 blue-wave packs. so ~760 jumbo cases.

i have a case coming in May, but wasnt going to bust until June as part of a celebration. will this redemption be done by then?

 

[mredsox89]

so 24 hobby or 7 jumbo wrappers? Is that just a typo since you should get 12 jumbo wrappers per box? Or are you able to get 13 wrapper redemption packs per jumbo case?

Hobby Case = 12 boxes * 18 packs = 216 /24 = 9 wrapper redemption packs
Jumbo Case = 8 boxes * 12 packs = 96 / 7 = 13.7 wrapper redemption packs

Unless blowout had the packs per box listed incorrectly

Nope, not a typo. Beckett.com's news page has the same number.

So another reason to go with jumbo or for jumbo prices to rise again? At this rate my case will be sold upon arrival. Ebay case prices haven't seemed to move much though. Or are people that hesitant about preordering through ebay? They're still under what was quoted from legit sites two weeks ago ($1300)

Mredsox89: I believe hobby will have 24 packs per box. Not 18 so a hobby case would yield 12 blue wave redemption packs.

BO just changed their information, lol. When I looked 10 minutes ago it said 18 packs per box. I thought that was wrong but went with it anyways

And they pulled their price for hobby cases. Now no price listed for either jumbo or hobby cases.

I believe Bowman Chrome contains 18 packs per hobby; Bowman 24.

 

[mredsox89]

Yup. That's what I thought too. They definitely had the wrong information up there. Still get an extra pack per jumbo case but that shouldn't move prices

 

[SydBarrett]

Damn, do you guys think it would be worth it to spend $70 on three day shipping from Florida to California so I can get my wrapper redemptions?

If I don't do that, I'm probably looking at the case getting to me on the 15th, and they really didn't want to have to zerg break.

 

[BBCgalaxee]

Brentbecca should take care of the 10k packs by themselves

 

[vwnut13]

Topps still sucks for not having it...

Blue = Prospect
Red = Veteran
Green = Rookie

 

[Jaypers]

It wasn't mentioned in the press release, but each redemption pack will be a cello pack.

Wonder if that means people will be sending them to PSA or *** for grading.

 

[gitarst182]

Sorry if this is a silly question but I have never sent wrappers in for anything. Do I just put them in a package and write my return address on a slip of paper or envelope?

I always group mine into sets (in this case sets of 24 or 7 for hobby v jumbo) in a wrapper of some sort and include a letter stating how many packs I should receive and my mailing address. Then, I wait. That's about it.

Ok, thank you.
