2012 Topps Tier One Tracker v. 1.0

[sneekc]

I have boxes avaliable

$90 for one
$85 each for two or more.

Might have a couple of 6 box cases.

If you personally deliver the 6 box case and give a good reach around while money changes hands then I'll take one. That's the only way I'm letting this product f#*% me!
no but seriously someone buy Chris' boxes.

I love it, I have seen 3 nice hits so far and they are ALL redemption. This stuff could be 50 bucks a pack next week if some of the big name knobs are
pulled early.

How can Sandberg be both a live on card autograph and a redemption?

Could be a relic redemption...it's happened before.

After doing a search ..... Just wow, who buys this crap?

The cards above are nice looking and certainly nice hits

But you could make one massive bonfire with all the dead wood in this product.

That could be said for just about every Topps mid/hi end product. Yet they continue to sell out everything. Nothing will change until the buying habits of collectors change.

I'm just waiting for a knob to show up with a different piece from the pictures previously posted.

Also, a picture of Mickey Mantle's shapely calves with his autograph on it.

When has Topps ever promised return on their products?

People need to shift their expectations--this hobby will be FAR MORE ENJOYABLE.

And I say this as an LCS owner.

 

[schmidtfan20]

It was a hobby when packs cost a few bucks a pieces, but now at 100 dollars a pack this is no longer a hobby but a business and there are expectations
that must be met. Is it so hard for a card company to tell us what is in the product and what odds we have of pulling those cards? That doesn't seem
unreasonable to me.

I get sick and tired of people defending topps deceiving ways by blaming it on the athletes,or our totally unreasonable expectations, or the famous, "it's just
a hobby so our money doesn't mean anything". It is obvious that topps put 20 or so nice cards into a product and junk for the rest, and even most of the nicer
cards that aren't knobs are redemptions and we know how that goes.

As a hobby shop owner it would seem to me that you would want topps to put out the very BEST product they could, after all most collectors read these
message boards and they know when a product sucks. You are the one that gets stuck with it. Maybe if dealers were more proactive in demanding better
effort and less redemptions then topps would make some positive changes. I do know one thing, if we say that it's ok to spend a rent payment or a car
payment on junk, just because it's a hobby, then topps will continue to produce this crap.

Thanks

After seeing some opened, the product is a MAJOR step up from last year.

I'm not saying it's excellent or anything, but it is far from the crap brick that schmidtfan says it is.
