Im being really lazy here full disclosure, is this card still valid ?  It says you can win a prize and be entered in for a chance to go to the HR derby so I’m guessing not ..thx !

Nope. time has past.  I did same thing in 2018 and waited too long.

Figured. Thx! Kinda stupid it’s not stated on the card. The original Crash the Game cards were so much cooler than these. I still have my winning reward sets from back then. Not worth much but cool cards!

It is a cool contest. i believe it was Minerjones that picked the correct game that the player on his card would hit a homerun and won a limited card for that player.  He could have gone to the homerun derby if they had pulled his number.

Keep it. Contreras is a beast. Him and Javy. Go Cubbies!

BTWs, did you see Nike's Home Run Challenge (click HERE) contest between George Springer, Mike Trout, and Javier Baez? Baez rules.

Sorry if i missed it. did we confirm the 1,100 number.  That sounds about right based upon what i've seen on the various sights though.

Thank You Mr. Stacy  ....I think these set go on sale in 4 DAYS! Here is a bit more extensive list:

Hey all, I put up an opinion poll regarding an image, I really think you should take a look, really!!!

[Fattcatt]

CH, I think your best bet is to keep an eye on the Topps site. IF there are X sets/box's/cases you'll find them there in 4 days. I'm thinking that there gotta be a tick down timer someplace for when the cards go on sale. Last year they sold out pretty fast, like ZOOM-Gone!!

[Ticked]

So not only are there no cryptocurrency cards in the 2019 release (which we likely won't see again!) but there is no X release?

There will be a Ginter x release.

[Mrstacy]

Another all-black, mini ginter x, can't be many left in the wild

First one I have seen in a long time, appears to have a little white showing on the bottom right corner, very nice card

Agree. have to be careful here. i would ask for second scan if you hope to get a 9 or the elusive 10 (only 1 in 18 so far!).

[BitcoinPenny]

Anyone know a fair market price for a NNO mini (only 50 printed)? I may have one to sell. Thanks.

Regards,
Chris

Hey folks   Just went through PSA population for 18,83,84, 204,222, 259 A&G ginter x and there has not been a single red mini graded a 10

[Fattcatt]

Looks like the 2019 Topps Ginter's are already hitting the Ebay market. Here's a Stained Glass Black Mini, they're pretty nice.

I can't believe it! There dishonesty in the card trading business.  Say it ain't so!

It's always disturbing to here this stuff but, it does happen.  Money and greed always seems to be the motivating factors.  Maybe people should give away some quality items from time to time to see how sharing feels and not always make it about money.  Easier said than done I'm sure

[BitcoinPenny]

FYI: I've got a nice PSA 9 #83 NNO (No Number) Mini available for sale. Only 50 exist. PM me.
