2014 Topps 1st Edition

[Mozzie22]

Just wondering if anyone has picked up their player yet. Never heard of this until today. Looks like a set was broken up and they're already starting to sell. Evidently this was a sweepstakes thru Topps and only 10 sets were produced. Link to Topps site:

Yes, purchased Yadi, Wanno and a lot of other Cardinals after I saw your post. Thanks!

Missed out on Holliday, Carpenter & Bourjos.

Looks like a potential 2006 Topps Blue parallel/10 situation.

Yes, would be nice to know how many 'Access Passes' were actually redeemed.

You're welcome. BTW, I bought the Carpenter for my pc.

Doesn't it seem like he/she is leaving money on the table with some of these BINs? Yadi for $20?

Shoot them an offer, could end up being one of only a few.

I did, it was declined. Oh well lol

Damn was countered at $100 and someone hit the BIN before I could accept. 8(

Some big ones just came off the board: two Tanakas @ $250 a piece, the Harper, and two Abreus @ $200 a piece.

 

[Mozzie22]

I wonder if these are numbered on the back.

That's the non base version , and Moz I don't think they are #ered

Thanks for the heads up on this set [MENTION=1885]Mozzie22[/MENTION]. The set definitely has the feel of 2006 Topps Blue, except that it's much less distinctive; the moment these cards change hands as part of a collection, odds are they are going to be passed over as base, and forgotten.

Got both Gomes cards, and the Nava (Gomes cameo). Nice to just knock them out.

Just realized that---my bad. And that would be disappointing if not #ed .

Thanks,

Thanks for the heads up on these! Would've never known about them and picked up my Span earlier today. Just know that this would be one of them that if you don't get right away you will never see again and regret it later on.

 

[Mozzie22]

This guy is making a killing. Based on some of these sales if there were more of these out there they'd be hitting eBay. Glad I got one when I did.

Are these things something we will be seeing in a few years faked. All these rare cards that are separated from base cards by a simple foil variation have been controversy since at least the days of Desert Shield cards.

Also how has the Offers been on these? I made an offer on a PC. Do they accept at reasonable offers and how quickly do you hear back?

I was the first person to buy one of these. I thought they might have been a scam/fake until I found the PDF of the contest rules.

Seller was VERY easy to work with. He had a $150 BIN/BO on one of the Mariano's (#42 ) and I asked what he would need for both Mo's #42 and #321 (with Jeter & Pettitte). We made a deal at $125 for both.

If these are anything like the 2006 blue's that's a steal and if more pop up a card #/10 for $62.50 is still a decent deal. But I highly doubt that more than 2 or 3 of these sets will come up for sale, if that.
