Refresh, try it out...it's fun stuff

$5 no thanks...

Agreed!


And the centering on some of them look pretty bad!


Imagine getting this?

This tells me that the manufacturing process isn't as precise as people think. Everyone has complained about Bowman Chrome singles coming out way oc and Topps having the technology to keep all of the cards centered but Brian, as a prospector, knows how much this is hated by his clientele and yet, we see cards like this.

This is NOT the norm... BG

This wasn't a knock against you. I'm just saying that it's probably a lot harder to get all of the cards perfectly centered than most people think.

what does not sell, will be destroyed

This is interesting, it means that a lesser guy, lets sale Jemile Weeks, only sells 50 cards and the other 950 are destroyed, all of a sudden you have a card with only 50 copies made of it, makes for some interesting speculation.

That is what I like the most about this release. Will be cool seeing when they destroy the unsold product. I heard it mentioned it may done at the National.

 

[Ian Stewart]

Any chance we can see a video or some sort of proof of you destroying the cards upon the conclusion of these auctions?

Looks like Wossa picked up 10 Wieters.... only 10?? not 500 :mrgreen:

I'm glad this is the plan. I mentioned this idea (brought up 2001 Elite and the success that that set had.) I still feel that with this process there was no reason not to have cards of every player (since the less popular the player, the more scarce and greater potential for the card, and there's no worry of a person pulling a weak pack, since you buy what you want) but I think this could work.

I do think that trying to be Chrome-like like Topps is shortsighted, especially with such a release as I think people will equate these to base Chrome's, and the /1000 or less makes them so much more than a base RC /x0000. I'd love to see something completely fresh, but I know that that is not an easy thing.

+1! This is going to be interesting if in fact the cards that are not sold in this current format are destroyed. Hopefully Brian will post an official SP list on his website once everything unfolds.

If I was Brian, I'd send you a fake box of cards that when you open it, destroyed Razor metal card confettie bursts out all over the place.

 

[All The Hype]

Bought a few. Brian, do you have the calendar for the remaining sets?

Very interested to hear about this too.

Won't be necessary by clicking on purchase you'll be able to see how many have been purchased.

Its gonna be interesting to see how many are bought off the bat (tonight), compared to over the next 30 days.

By posting an SP list on the website, it will make an official announcement from Razor as to the quantity of each card produced instead of useless speculation 2-3 years from now.

I remember Brian saying that he would reveal which were short printed in the Exclusives Autos in Razor Series 1. Was that ever revealed (besides him saying that Brett Wallace was very limited)???

Going by the success of Playoff Contenders and their SPs, will you reveal the actual quantity that remains? Having some sort of proof that the unsold chrome cards are destroyed would add instant credibility. I hope you do answer this as you've always been prompt with replies. This is very important to me and everyone else because it would be a shame to buy these cards and find out 855 Che-Hsuan Lin cards are being sold out the back door. Please don't take any offense to this as I would ask this question to any manufacturer if they sold their product directly in THEIR eBay store.

Thanks,
Allen

I'd like to see that list.

I always get them mixed up when I'm typing. Thanks JP.

Without serial-numbering, I could tell you that 500 of something was released...how would you know if it wasn't 700?

You wouldn't.

Not implying that this will happen, but anything is plausible when you leave the door of doubt open.

 

[ru4scuba]

I picked up one... if it gets here and looks nice I may go after others.

 

[brad1313]

So does this mean that Razor Metal won't be a pit.com product like originally (I thought) planned? Sorry if this has already been discussed elsewhere.
