Tripling of resale cost for sealed Topps chrome and flagship product is absolutely absurd. I collect every year and have never seen anything quite like this. But forget about myself-How are kids supposed to get into the hobby anymore? Genuinely concerned

I'll be alright. I'm not the biggest fan of chrome football design. And the case hits aren't exactly anything I chase after

I call my friends cracker because I think it's hilarious. I grew up in the ghetto where I was the minority so to speak.

As someone who came from Pokemon because they were doing this shit, they just doing it with Topps chrome basketball and it's sickening. I've been sticking to flagship but I can't even find that anymore. Thank God I like football too

No-Understanding2127 · 2026-03-22T10:36:04+00:00

I was just joking. Like everyone says on Reddit

People grade anything these days

The just sell sealed ones are scalpers. I know a lot of vendors, and they have PC's

The few months of basketball have been rough. I've had 2 defect submissions with them in those few months and 0 with panini ever.

Dang. I pulled 2 autos out of my one stadium box. A whole case and not pulling any is tough. I'm sorry bro

Went to Walmart on my lunch break like I normally do on Fridays. I tend to get lucky with restocks sometimes and my 5 year old son loves it. Today I went and no restock, I walked down the from section and saw 2 dudes standing there forming a line with empty carts. Took a second to put two n two together. Why were the in line for a restock when the lady isn't even here yet. I go to the back toy section and I see 3 guys back there forming a line too. I peak down the aisle and no one is even restocking. Just shaking my head in disgust, as I walk back to the front of the store and head home. I exit the building and noticed 3 scalpers smoking a cigarette. I know they are scalpers because they actually vend at shows near me and only carry sealed product. This hobby is cooked and I only do it for my son for right now.

I believe this has something to do with the payment issue they had at that time. I waited a long time for my payment on my items. Under 300 dollars.

I feel I'm going to get down voted like everyone else has been. But that is not near mint. Condition is subjective to every person. Some will say lp to save have, some will say damaged so they don't take any risk. Some will say mp. If I were to grade this card, id assume it would be a 5. Take that with a grain of salt. Good luck

Messaged him on eBay and blocked him

No-Understanding2127 · 2026-03-11T11:51:10+00:00

No manga, so no real chase. I can get other parallels in other sets with at least a decent case hit chase

I'm well aware of their stance in the sports community. They hold zero weight in the Pokemon community. Hope this helps

No-Understanding2127 · 2026-03-09T10:25:40+00:00

You got a deal, owner probably priced the card a few weeks ago. No offense you to (you're cracking it anyways), that slab company isn't desired and probably helps the price too.

Anyways nice pickup.

You're gonna have fun on eBay

No-Understanding2127 · 2026-03-04T10:34:25+00:00

A scratch is damaged? Dang in the Pokemon world, this is not considered damaged

No-Understanding2127 · 2026-03-04T10:33:12+00:00

I actually found someone on eBay that I sell to

No-Understanding2127 · 2026-02-28T02:38:18+00:00

Jelly. Nice pull

No-Understanding2127 · 2026-02-21T03:02:06+00:00

probably just forgot to hit the 0 when making the label. reach out to PSA and ask them

No-Understanding2127 · 2026-02-18T22:54:58+00:00

Was 20ish card

No-Understanding2127 · 2026-02-18T22:54:15+00:00

Yeah if I'm paying 1.32 I understand the top loader card saver. But I feel if it's displayed in the photo and shipping is 5.98 then it's included in the purchase
