Is Bartolo the Hobby's New Honus?
Topps, never one to shy away from new ways to make a buck, produced and completely sold out of (8,826) special Colon HR cards within 24 hours.
. Of course there are not nearly that many Wagners, but man oh man just watch EBAY for the next several days...idiots' delight! .

This is the cheapest one listed - $49.99 (but free shipping)
'more than 10 available / 31 sold in 24 hours' http://www.ebay.com/itm/2016-Topps-N...AAAOSwQNRXMKtN I have to admit, it is a very good 'girth' shot. .

To clarify, Topps will only print the amount that sell online during the 48 hour period. If 80 sell, they produce 80. If 8,000 sell, they produce 8,000. It's my guess that Colon or someone with the Mets ordered a large quantity. The average has been around 400 and the most I've seen one move previously was ~1000 copies.

So for that type of sale, it falls under pre-sale items on Ebay. When is the item supposed to be shipped from Topps? It doesn't say in the auction, other than the delivery of "Estimated between Thu. May. 19 and Tue. May. 24."
At face value, it seems that this auction does not have enough information in it to be allowed on Ebay.
