Topps Rookie Cup. You should check it out, it's good stuff. At least the Rookie Cup Reprints Chrome section of the set is super hot. As for the Rookie Cup Relics, there is a little plastic cup where the rookie cup logo was on the original card. I think (although I could be totally wrong) that they bought back original topps cards, and used 2 of them to make 1 Rookie Cup Relic card.
I got lucky to get in early I guess. I know that neither of mine was more than $10, probably a little over $10 combined...
#3/7 & #2/2. They are the only ones of the 9 made of my players that I've seen. CC was a redemption, and it's a pretty interesting story... I have sent 16 redemption cards to UD, 4 to Fleer, and this 1 to Topps... (all Sabathia redemptions)... this is the only redemption where I've ever actually recieved the actual card I was supposed to get!! What a miraculous card.

Ok, I understand now, lol. What I get for not reading, still, I've never seen them before. Didn't see one like that on ebay even*. Did they do them for every player in the set?RL24 said:Topps Rookie Cup. You should check it out, it's good stuff. At least the Rookie Cup Reprints Chrome section of the set is super hot.

I'm not sure who they did, I'm pretty sure there was no Rickey* in the set. I did just scan up my Rookie Cup Chrome Reprint things though....
2002 Topps Chrome 163
2002 Topps Chrome Gold Refractors 163
2005 Topps Rookie Cup Reprints Chrome 02 130 #10/25
2005 Topps Rookie Cup Reprints Chrome Refractors 02 130 #06/15
If I ever sell these, I'm going to say "The dirt you see is not on the card, or my scanner... it's on CC's leg."
Couldn't really see much, so I tried this:
Still can't see much.
So it's kinda weird now that I really check it out. The Topps Chrome reprint should be silver! And it's kinda weird how the originals say chrome but the reprints don't. (On the top of the front of the card). What else is weird is this... in 2002, there was no regular chrome refractor, just the gold refractor which served as the regular and I believe was just kind of coincidentally gold and called gold because, well, the whole set was gold. eh? I dunno... So on my wantlist I have a Gold Ref Reprint, and own the regular Ref, which is gold in color. !? I would really love to at least see what that Gold Ref Reprint looks like!
If anybody knows where I can find either of these:
2005 Topps Rookie Cup Reprints 02 130
2005 Topps Rookie Cup Reprints Chrome Gold Refractors 02 130
I would totally be nice to you. And stuff. :mrgreen:
*Beckett didn't list one, but you know how those effers are.

Alright, so... I posted this up on Dec 17 at 7pm. Then, on Dec 20 at 7am... the Gold Ref showed up on ebay! After all these years! And it's a 1/1! And.... Merry Christmas to myself... I won it! w00t!
I just thought it was pretty crazy how just a couple days later it popped up.
Merry Christmas everybody! Time to clean the house and get ready for the relatives.

It wasn't too bad! Or at least, I didn't think so. The same seller in Taiwan had a bunch of CC's for sale, all ending at the same time. He had the super from 2008 and it went for $42.15... I got mine for $35.12. I guess some people would rather have the super, but I'm less, um, brainwashed. :mrgreen:
Thanks for the kind words guys!
