I think after next year they lose the license to list the team logo on the cards. Then completely lose the license shortly after. The fact that baseball sold topps out is terrible. Topps and baseball cards just go together. Not a fanatics fan so will probably slow down on the bb cards going forward. Undecided

I agree... But... Doesn't this theoretically make Topps cards more valuable moving forward? I hope so at least. 🤷‍♂️🚀 Huh

I mean when panini took over basketball and football it didn't make upperdeck or topps or whatever more valuable. This is a little different being topps and baseball but it won't move the needle all that much. Just disappointing baseball needs topps they go hand in hand

Yes, the Topps cards will become more valuable...it's what the articles are saying. The Players Union orchestrated a take over, the way that I understand it is, Topps never made it to the table to bid. No one told them when to be there. And, Topps lost the right to take the players image's. The same thing has happened to the Basketball venue. Looks like "Fanatics" is systematically taking over the sports card rights and the Players Unions are letting them....so I'd venture to say that the players want things to change. It will take some time, but everyone will settle in just fine. Including us. Roll with it, there's nothing we can do about it anyways. Cry

Not sure if this has been brought up here or not yet, but sadly it looks like Topps is done being able to produce baseball cards. Stupid fucking Fanatics now has the MLB deal. I hate that overpriced company, so makes it even worse for me. https://www.cnbc.com/2021/08/19/mlb-will-end-long-time-deal-with-trading-card-company-topps.html

This doesn't take affect for a few years, but it may help Topps cards holders over the years after they stop producing.

Notable sale: Raw 2018 Topps Allen & Ginter 83 Cryptocurrency Hot Box Silver Glossy - $249 - 8/23/2021. Finally this card is getting some attention. There might be 8 base cards in a case, but only 1 of these (since each case has just one hot box)

It appears some more deep pockets entering the 83 Cryptocurrency card space with 3 near 1k cards changing hands. Two PSA 10 black borders and the very-hard-to-find all-black, full-size ginter X with PSA 9 grade.

Fattcatt passed me this news story that Topps will no longer have MLB cards after 70 years. Their future has to be in jeopardy. Garbage Pail Kids may be their biggest revenue stream after MLB and that can't be huge i'm thinking.

Corruption in the sports card industry. No way!!

"In an email to buyers Tuesday, the marketplace said “it was determined that individuals associated with a trading card seller, PWCC, have engaged in ‘shill bidding,’ which is prohibited on eBay. As a result, eBay has restricted PWCC’s selling privileges and listings, effective today.” The company declined to elaborate on its statement.

i've heard that these consignment companies do offer card owners a chance to bid on their own items. i know one card seller that told me he did personally and won it for like 3k. Later that same card sold for over 25k. i lost a lot of money on a mini x PSA 8 that sold for like 250 but i didn't bid on it. Now a PSA 8 should get 2500 at least i would think.

Check this out: This 1st one ended on the 17th @ around 6 p.m.....didn't do quite as well as the one posted above. Treasure hunters risking a cracked from the slab card.

strange that blowout cards has hobby boxes cheaper than topps. maybe they locked in their price with volume?

https://www.blowoutcards.com/2021-topps-allen-ginter-baseball-hobby-box.html

Topps probably gives massive discounts to huge buyers. They probably don't prefer to ship box by box and rather deal with a wholesaler. They make cards , distribution isn't their fortay. Is what I'm guessing
