    Anyone else have history with 1990 UD boxes?

    So this purchase I made had 1990 UD wax, 1991 UD wax and 1992. Just opened low series of 1991 and awfully similar to 1990, if not even worse. Tons of cards in each hundred, from 50 up, rarely any lower. I got two total cards from 500-550! Both in 40s. And in 400s, got 10 all in 440s. Not...

    Anyone else have history with 1990 UD boxes?

    Bought it online, so no chance of that. Just odd how large ranges past say 50 are never seen, or very rarely. Think am doing buying unopened product for it though. Already bought two, so will fill out through a good commons vendor I know instead.

    Anyone else have history with 1990 UD boxes?

    Just opened my first ever box of 1990 UD Low Series. I had previously bought a box of Hi Series, so want to try and finish the set, as that's why I collect, really. Found it very odd, as need many ranges of cards when started opening. So after opening all 540 cards, I never saw one card in...

    2023 Topps Series 1 does this seem conceivable?

    That's all well and good, but was collation down the tubes as far back as Series 1 of 2023? To not get many of the very top cards out of 512 cards seems pretty crazy.

    2023 Topps Series 1 does this seem conceivable?

    So got away from hobby for a bit...but figuring out back last April I bought 2 Mega boxes off Ebay. That is 512 total cards I daresay I did not get any of these: 27 Trout 62 Judge 206 HendersonG 250 Rutschman 330 RodriguezJ I wouldn't normally think anything of it, but the missing cards are...

    Just opened 2 Series 1 Mega boxes and am not exactly happy

    I'm a set builder really.....not much into inserts. Maybe should change my way of thinking though. I'm just kind of stunned at the cards I need to complete the set. Some of the top valued ones I'd guess.

    Ebay rant

    Have sent cards via PWE many times. Of course in card sleeves with cardboard on each side and tape so it doesn't even move much. Never had an issue..doesn't take a lot of ingenuity.

    Just opened 2 Series 1 Mega boxes and am not exactly happy

    256 cards each box, so 512 cards total. Granted, way too many inserts, per usual. Still need 50 cards to complete series 1. Did not get the following: 27 Trout 62 Judge 100 Goldschmidt 150 Acuna 206 HendersonG 250 Rutschman(R) 330 RodriguezJ Is that some craphouse luck or what? Got one...

    Woe to any youngsters joining our hobby

    Thanks for the good replies....I do intend to check more stores locally. Got my retail box in 2 quick days off Ebay and was kind of amazed at my luck in pullling FrancoW rookie #205 Royal Blue parallell. Think paid for box right there! My want/trade list page issue may be due to that site...

    Finished With Football

    I gave up on football cards quite a few decades ago...almost like hockey better. I'm solely MLB and NBA these days. I call the NFL the not for long league. Why would I want to be interested in cards for a league where the average player is gone in 3 years? Unless you are a QB or WR, that is...

    Woe to any youngsters joining our hobby

    Thanks for the info....hadn't heard about Target...but don't even have to read the article to know it was more the stupid speculators at work. But, also maybe I'll check some more places. But I don't want to be asking anyone for help and have people thinking I'm one of these weirdos, when I've...

    Woe to any youngsters joining our hobby

    I finally dropped $65 for a retail box of 2022 Topps baseball yesterday off Ebay. Just never going to pay outrageous amounts for hobby or jumbo ever. So I thought might also buy a pack or two locally....Walmart nothing....Target nothing. Am sure there are many like me here. Our love for...

    Topps Baseball Series 1 at Target?

    What is happening to our hobby? I've been a set builder since the early 70s. I buy 1 or 2 wax boxes each year. I used to only choose one of the 3 or 4 producers each year. Now, if I want a box, I have to pay ridiculous prices? I just won't do it. And, you can't even find them in stores...

    See...You can't trust anyone!

    My question would be, how could he tell it was sports cards in the package or mailing? Maybe I'm ignorant...maybe they scan and can see? But, anyhow, I never divulge what I'm sending. And, I never pay for insurance. I have sent and traded for all sorts of 50s and 60s cards, and have never...

    2022 Topps Series 1 - Box/Cases

    What is the per pack retail price? $79.99 still doesn't sound that cheap...at least compared to memory. Or maybe I should just wait for a retail box. Could care less about chasing inserts. Sold out anyhow. I give up.

    2022 Topps Series 1 - Box/Cases

    I just got email from Steel City announcing release....I knew last year's prices were inflated....but sure hoping this isn't the new norm....ridiculous prices. I've been collecting since the early 70s....set builder still. But, they are getting perilously close to pushing people like me out of...
