I looked on PSA to see how many total glow in the darks were graded for the entire set and there were only eleven. No #83's at all. Who here has seen an actual #83 glowie other than in a photo? Just curious Cool

I purchased and flipped one. I had it graded and they mislabeled it as plain mini - PSA 10. i have teo others mislabeled of regular players. so PSA does make mistakes.

So you had a red mini #83 and a glow in the dark #83. Were those the rarest of the #83's that you had?

Hey all, just picked up one of the last few ginter x boxes from 2018. I only know of two others out there and feel if the silver mini isn't in these 3 boxes it isn't going to show up. I am hoping for a black or red mini but, will settle for the silver Roll Eyes

Good score on that x box. I do hope you pull an elusive red or silver. those are too good at playing hide and seek. Remember, you could pull a glow too. Any base looking card in an x box is a glow card. They have case hits too.

Some ebay told me of a dealer site that has an annual fee where boxes and cases are sold. Dealer dot net or something like that. i'd be curious if there are x boxes there too. Also, every once in a while Probstein sells an X box, so there may be some still hiding.

I also purchased the single packs and will be opening those today. Let you know if I pull the silver mini.

That 10 black-label 2019 Egg may do well. i saw a Acuna go for 300 dollars or so. Hard to get a BGS black-label 10. The grade centering, corners, surface, and edges.

This is the gold label 10, the black label 10 is the holy grail with all four subsets being 10's. I have only seen one black label ever on ebay.

I found wood mini's for 2018 A&G when I looked on ebay for the sold wood mini's. Of course finding the #83 is a whole different story. There were quite a lot more boxes made of where the wood mini is most likely hiding so I am focused on the silver mini as there is only a few boxes left in my opinion. Would be happy with a red mini or even a black mini especially if they graded a psa 10. Either way the red mini's are a 25K card when its time comes.

FWIW, not all of the wood mini cards were lost. Only the base cards 1-300 were lost. The wood mini cards that you've seen in the wild are the high number cards which were found inside the rip cards only, and were correctly distributed.

Chris

good information. A huge mistake by Topps. Maybe we can do a class-action lawsuit saying we bought packs in anticipation of pulling a wood one and get a refund. i can't help think that the silver one got discarded as a junk card early in 2018, but there are two X boxes left on ebay if anyone wants to give it a shot. The person selling the individual packs says he's sold out.

I'd imagine if the silver and remaining reds are not found, the boxes could go 4 figures and then 6. It would help if Ohtani, Acuna or Torres becomes a huge star as multiple rookies i'm sure would help.

Well, it looks like the regular size glossy has been found and graded of the 2018 A&G #83. That means there are only two 1/1's left to be found. The silver mini and the mini wood stock card. Cool

Thanks for the updates and congratulations to glossy owner. Hopefully, he or she is a member here

Dolphriends, i think that wood 1/1 is a myth. Don't quote me , but i recall reading that Topps simply forgot to make them. An Ebay search shows none for me.

If i find the link of folks complaining about this topps oversight, I'll share.
