topps mlb is moooning and it’s only been around for a week. It will probably pass topshot within a week for sales.

Are you guys actually making any money off of this stuff? Like if you buy the common packs for nine dollars, what is your return on investment?

I could at least sell the 3 cards for twice that price immediately, and that's probably worse case scenario.

Nice I just joined so trying to learn. I guess the trick is to check your email and make sure you register for the pack drops right when they’re online.
I just tried to join the one that openedmorning and it says i’m ineligible, I’m assuming that’s because it’s full?

no, this one had a preregistration two days ago.

I just pulled a Serial Number 5 Tim Hardaway Jr. Not the best player but I'll take the serial number

Topps MLB is a shite show. They have 4 markets to sell on that do not tie together. Bad product.

Client of mine has made some money already. He bought 10 (max) of the $99 dollar premium packs. $1,000 investment is currently sitting at a value of $13,000. He hasn't sold and pulled the money out. Says he will keep them for a while.

ETA: This is the Topps MLB NFT cards.

I’m convinced, I’m getting in on this, I guess the key will be so you just sell off your cards and make a little money or hold in hopes the price goes up

Well, you crazy LARPers are onto something. Not sports, but this girl made almost half a mill on her meme.

Man that last preorder pack was fire for me. I got $150 worth out of it. I have only been able to buy the preorder packs so far but I am still way ahead with just a few market buys. Here is my profile:

Pulled a nice Anthony Edward's. Second pack. I almost didn't buy, but I needed atleast 30 to withdraw while waiting on the 6-8 weeks. This thing is odd, nobody talks about how cool it is to own these but only to make money. Could be a bubble could be not

Paid for several Premium and Regular packs the second they were released in their bullshite system that was confusing as hell bc the website and checkout was absolute trash. Then was refunded for all of my purchases after being charged for aforementioned packs as did a lot that got in in time were punished for being on on time since topps/wax cancelled and refunded after charging us at first.
I will not purchase a single thing that has to do w/ this because of that. Shortsighted maybe but this is awful. I want nothing to do with ‘wax’.
I love real trading cards and make a decent extra income off physical cards and made an absolute killing off of TopShot and it introduced me to NFTs
But the Topps release has been a disaster in my personal experience and I have no interest to pursue it further after that initial drop.
All my experience obviously.

It was not a good experience by any means. Had to try multiple times, and was charged multiple times. Glad one went through
