For those of you that are bored.
Just got new information on the 2021 Topps Transcendent issue coming out. I know that none of you guys give a crap, but I thought I'd let you know that many of the cards are 1 of 1. What else is new. But the Price is really cheap at over $20,000 a box and only 50 boxes will be made. Can't wait to NOT buy it. Who does buy this crap?

Interesting topic. Manufactured rarity is making more millionaires in the hobby daily, so it seems. Just not my cup of tea. Probably folks in their 20s and 30s who have made a lot of money?
I don't know but this one is rare.. .

They have been nice cards, and although I'll never be a purchaser of a box, I have purchased a couple of Ripkens for my collection.

What's the invite to the VIP party worth? It's hard to say exactly. Per Topps, the party features "a myriad of unique at-event gifts, meet-and-greets with enshrined greats, and other once-in-a-lifetime baseball-themed experiences." I think a lot of attendees probably end up selling the cards received at the VIP party to help offset the cost of the original box. The VIP Party cards are limited and offer some nice alternatives to the regular cards available. |

I totally agree; me either. I do wonder if collectors have actually been able to make back the original "price of admission" by selling the cards they aren't really as interested in. If you ended up with some nice cards for your collection and got to attend the VIP party, maybe it would be worth it in the long run. You just couldn't be in a hurry to get back the original investment.

I understand the logic at Topps, just don't understand it in the buyers.

The buyers are breakers who sell spots to gamblers hoping to be the one to get the cut auto or another big card.

Hoping someone will buy it, and offer it in shares on collectable, only to have someone buy it for more, rinse and repeat.
