Are Topps Buyback cards the same as original vintage?
What are your thoughts on Topps buyback? Are they the same as original vintage?
If you bought a set in an auction and some of the commons were Topps Buybacks with a Topps stamp on them, would you consider those cards the same as original, better, worse?
As an example, I saw this 1970 Topps common for sale on Ebay in the UK today. I was pretty pleased because I don't see many 1970 Topps for sale in the UK. But I then I noticed it was a buyback. I had to look up what that meant. The condition isn't horrible but I'm not sure if that's the same as a vintage card (maybe better because it's been verified by Topps as Authentic) or worse.
So, let's have your thoughts on buybacks. Are the scourge or the earth? The best thing since sliced bread?
