Posted By: <b>petecld</b><p>Topps bought thousands of original T206 cards to use for these inserts. For some reason they are being called "buyback" cards.<BR><BR>It makes no sense since Topps didn't make the original T206 cards so what are they really "buying back". <BR><BR>I guess it sounds like Topps is doing collectors a favor by "buying" them "back" for them.<BR><BR>Some favor. You can get them on ebay by the dozen on any given day.

Posted By: <b>jay behrens</b><p>The really scary thing about that $200 bid is that the high bidder is a dealer. Anyone want to start a pool on how long he stays in business?<BR><BR>Jay

Posted By: <b>Julie Vognar</b><p>Is there some sort of seal around the holder, or could you just put any old card you wanted in a Topps 2002 holder? <img src="/images/tongue.gif" height=14 width=14>

Posted By: <b>David</b><p>I haven't bought a pack of Topps 206, but I think it's a neat idea to insert geuine T206 cards (and T205s and T207s) into packs. Buying and opening packs should be about having fun, and I bet a lot of kids and kids at heart find it a cool experience pulling a 90 year old card, even if it is only a Heinie. I'm sure many kids are being exposed in a positive way to Pre-War cards, probably taking a look at eBay's 'Pre-1950' section for the first time. I can't beleive that you-know-who seized the moment and issued that darned book.

Posted By: <b>David</b><p>At least a few T207s have been pulled from the Topps packs, though labelled as T206s. I assume the grades on these are in the Good to Very Good range.

Posted By: <b>tbob</b><p>There is no frigging way Topps is going to be able to find VG or better condition examples of at least 25-30 cards in the T207 set unless Scott Brockelman decides to sell his cards to them and starts collecting comics or something.

Posted By: <b>tbob</b><p>David, what I meant was there are about 30 particular cards in the set which they are most likely going to be unable to find, to buy, because of their scarcity.
