Is the market that hot for these? The cynic in me says they’re being bid up to promote those prices online
I thought the same. Need more than one marketplace to ensure level playing field. Cardsmiths on becketts, comc, mercari, ebay etc. Hard to manipulate the price

Fanatics bought topps!!
Ah .. That was it, thank you for clarifying. So MrStacy what's your opinion on the future sales of topps graded cards, now that fuckatics bought them? I was thinking they'd all go up eventually, but let's face it so many years of Topps early '90s cards are virtually worthless already.. I'm no expert. My only interest was the 2018 ginter cryptocurrency card. I suspect fanatics will have to bring in much more money leaving less for collectors.

Been buying some packs and boxes but it’s really hard to justify at these prices on the secondary market. Hopefully they do another crypto/Bitcoin release at some point
Who do you mean, because as of now Topps is done with MLB (IIRC) & it's all going to Fanatix now... Fanatics bought topps!!

I received 4 box packs today!
Box 1 Base: 16, 9,6,2,27, 22,21 Holo: 23,42 CS: 33 Box 2 Base: 41,56,20,52,40,24,6 Holo: 25,28a :-) CS: None MR: 3 Box 3: Base: 53,41,25,9,15,5,46 Holo: 50,35 CS: 54 Box 4: Base: 5,32,38,52,40,26,11 Holo: 53,34 CS: 57
Can you please post a pic of the MR 3 holofoil? I don't think this has been seem yet by most collectors here, I don't see it on MJ's tracking list https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5406560.msg61888083#msg61888083 https://www.ebay.com/itm/266111707659?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=rqqYryMZRqa&sssrc=2349624&ssuid=rqqYryMZRqa&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPYThanks for sharing but that's the CS version of the card, we are looking for a pic of the true holofoil MR card (the one with the 1:124 odds) The CS meta-rare cards are no where near as rare as the HF versions, we still haven't even a few of the MR holofoil cards. Did anyone redeeming a set for a Diamond refractor fill out the form on the link below? I don't remember filling it out myself or seeing it before, I just got the first confirmation with a form to fill out and sent in my set. Is this something we need to fill out be for receiving the Diamond refractor? https://cardsmiths.com/pages/currency-series-1-redemptionsOk. My bad on mislabeling the mr3. Could it be none were made? Normally a CS is more rare than a holo. Yes. I filled out a form before sending and waited for confirmation email No problems, easy mistake to make. I was just excited to see the HF version of the MR 3 Usually the CS cards are more rare than the HF version, when i noticed the crystal sparkle MR cards being pulled at a much lower rate than 1:124 it was explained here https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5406560.msg61181212#msg61181212So the CS MR cards are not true meta-rare cards, they are rare, just not as rare as the HF version. (Most case breaks have about 4 crystal sparkle MR cards, whereas you will be lucky to even get 1 holofoil MR in a case) Regarding the base set redemption program, did you fill out the form online now asking for the Redemption Code? I only remember being asked to fill out the form when accepted and that was sent back with the set. Did the original form we filled out ask for a Redemption Code? I don't remember seeing that, and even if it did ask none of us would have had one before actually being accepted I suspect that is for future redemption, because my previous one I was given a code via pdf email and asked to sign the form

You have it correct. Just meaning that there are no specific "Hot Cases" that we have labeled or would even know how to identify which might have a better hit rate in terms of the crypto card redemption denomination or types of variant cards within the case like multiple 1/1 or 1/5 Gemstones for example.
In the sports and TCG card world many manufacturers will order "Hot Boxes" or even "God Cases" from the printer that have an outsized number of hits and/or quality of hits within the case. Often they will send these to VIP's, key influencers, or breakers to give the impression that their product is loaded with nothing but great hits.
We find that sort of practice offensive and insulting to collectors, so it's not something we will be engaging in. When the warehouse pulls boxes or cases to ship. we have no idea what's in them which is the way we like it.
Sorry I'm confused as well. My understanding is that redemption card are not exclusive to cases. Can a box or pack (as opposed to a case) also have a redemption card? I'm guessing they are opening cases at the warehouse to fill single box orders, so if there is a redemption card in that case, some lucky buyer could get it by just purchasing a single box. If you order a case you will get a fresh case, guaranteed to have a redemption card inside That would make sense less confused now ty

Cleaned out my closest Gamestop of 3 boxes. I think there are 8 stores left in the area. should have them all emptied within the week. So nice to want to buy a box and not have to wait a week to get them. Here is the tally from my 3 boxes
21- base cards, some good ones #4,5,10,29,30, 21,22,32 4- holofoil cards #29,34,38, and the Lambo! 3- crystal sparkle #38,47 and the Lambo! 1- MR7 Holofoil 1- Beryll refractor #49 bag holders
Pretty good pull I think
Good pulls for sure. Cardsmiths has pretty good roi. With about 100 dollar investment. You should get that back on MR and beryl alone. The CS cards worth 12 each low end and foils 6 bucks. With more collectors. the value goes up
