"Missing cards" in 2014 Allen Ginter are exclusives

[BBCgalaxee]

Although they're fairly popular with entertainment trading card sets, when it comes to sports, there isn't much in the form of custom binders.

For the past few years, Topps has offered a few through their website but there hasn't been a huge push. That will likely change shortly.

Topps and Ultra PRO are partnering on a 2014 Topps Allen & Ginter Baseball binder that includes a mix of supplies and exclusive cards not found in packs.



Each 2014 Topps Allen & Ginter binder package comes with the following:

1 binder
10 Ultra PRO Platinum 9-pocket pages
2 Ultra PRO 15-pocket pages
1 Ultra PRO 35 pt One-Touch
1 Ultra PRO 55 pt One-Touch
3 Ultra PRO tobacco card inserts (2 thin frame, 1 thick frame)
3 exclusive 2014 Allen & Ginter cards

There are six different cards available in binders so it will take multiple purchases to get them all. Cards are grouped into two sets of three so you won't have to buy a ton of binders looking for just one card. These cards are part of mini insert sets.

The six exclusives are:

Into the Unknown #ITU-16 Hernan Cortes
Larger Than Life #LTL-12 Pocahontas
Little Lions #LL-16 Turkish Van
Outlaws, Bandits & All-Around Ne'er Do Wells #OBA-11 Ned Kelly
Where Nature Ends #WNE-26 Jan Vermeer
World's Deadliest Predators #WPD-22 Cone Snail

The 2014 Topps Allen & Ginter binder package will not be an online-exclusive like other Topps binders. It's available to hobby shops and carries a suggested retail price of $29.99.

why does topps always screw up their collecting binders?

I obtained an Topps Opening Day binder one year with the cheapest quality 9-pocket pages in it. There were not enough pages to put a complete Opening Day set in the binder, let alone have room for any inserts.

Why does topps repeat their error by selling a A&G binder that does not have enough 9 pocket pages to put a complete A&G set in the pages. At least Topps partnered with UltraPro to have some good quality pages for the binder, but they should have enough pages that you could put a complete set in pages in the binder. Maybe topps is telling us they only want you to buy one box of cards and not complete the set so your collection of A&G in the binder looks half-assed.

I'm going off what my overpriced local shop charges:

Binder: $7.95
10 Ultra PRO Platinum 9-pocket pages: $2
2 Ultra PRO 15-pocket pages: 40 cents
1 Ultra PRO 35 pt One-Touch: $1.35
1 Ultra PRO 55 pt One-Touch: $1.35
3 Ultra PRO tobacco card inserts (2 thin frame, 1 thick frame): probably 50 cents each

$14.55.


**** Topps.

Topps needs to be a sponsor of the Special Olympics. Maybe the medals the good folks competing can be redemptions that are never fulfilled.
