Any idea of MSRP?

Any idea of MSRP?

$35 to $45 would be my guess

Actually, Walmart will be doing a VERY limited test of this item and I would expect them to price at $29.99...

This is interesting... I doubt my Wally World will get any in but I want to try a box.

Not bad, Brian! I have no hobby shops.

this product has been done time and time again...so having it retail only all around retail outlets would definitely make it a more original idea

If my Wal-Mart has some at $29.99 I will definitely try one.

Unlike all of our other cuts, it is a lower end entry level product that still has big hits...
VERY different than our other offerings from a content/pricing/packaging standpoint..
People always ask me for more afforable product offerings... this is it..

I definitely do like the price point...Even for the casual collector, a $30 gamble is reasonable

As I am sure BG has seen retail lately has been extremely dangerous with resealed boxes. There are people all over opening blasters and getting a handful of 1988 topps. What steps will you guys put in place to assure that these arent opened and searched and then returned to the retail store?

 

[A_Pharis]

^ I agree. This is a major issue.

I applaud the price point.I was one of many that has asked for product that had a lower price point.Leaf Draft Retail was great at the price point.

Obviosely a higher price point..but you should definitely consider a HOF auto sweet spot auto product..appears Topps doesn't make sweet spot auto cards unless I am mistaken, so this would be a niche...obviosely it's expensive to make sweet spot autos...but an autographed sweet spot ball auto would be cool...
