Topps Tiffany… much demand or no?

From 2015 until 2018 Topps produced " Limited sets with production limited to 999 sets. Far far below the production of the Tiffany sets. They sell for a few times what a factory set sells for for the same years. Interesting to see where these are at 30 to 40 years down the road.

If I recall the 2018 set doesn't have the Soto or Acuna rookies which I think would hurt it a lot.

My fear with the “limited” sets is “are they going to brick due to the high gloss?”

I have no idea if these sets are prone to bricking…but an awful lot of unopened material of that era is a disaster waiting to happen for anyone who opens it.

With a lot of recent glossy cards, they stick together and are hard to separate. They are like a hard brick and many peel when you try to take they apart. I know from experience. Be careful and place in a good environment.

I have the Tiffany base and Traded sets from 84-91 and the Limited sets from 2000-2002. None have been out of the box and seals are still in place. They all may be bricks for all I will ever know. They seem to sell for more sealed than opened.

One of my favorite cards from the 80s:

The Tiffany's from the 80's are very popular. At the time they sold for $100 a set which was very high for a new issue then.

All the kids of the mid-80's who chased Mattingly and Gooden are adults and many can afford the Tiffany versions now, which are actually limited unlike most of the stuff from the 80's.

The only set which was produced in quantity is the 1987 set.

I love the Tiffany, I only get frustrated by the yellowing they can be prone to. Has anyone seen any good information to prevent the yellowing the high gloss seems to show on many?
