They really should just call it High End Redundancy Series 27 at this point.

Oh, I think they will sell out fairly quickly.

Last night's WS finale had at least 30 people seated behind the Cubs dugout who paid more than 10K each for a single ticket...of course, that experience has to have been WAY more valuable than anything that can fit in a single briefcase.

The point being - there are still folks 'out there' who have money to burn and are very willing to spend it - and they live in their own version of reality and have their own set of values.

We, the other, 99%, should be happy we are not so 'lucky'.

You guys are missing the point. I did too when I first saw it.

Topps is starting to shift toward breakers. This is geared toward breakers. 168 cards, plus a case, plus a ticket to a party = 170 spots. About $160 a spot. For $160 you can gamble that you get a 1/1 Bryant auto, or a sick cut auto. At WORST you get a replica sketch card #/65 - which, given the low numbering from a high dollar product, will still leave you with at least some kind of ROI, even if it's only $20. Plenty of people bring several hundred dollars to a poker table. This is that. Pure gambling. It's not intended for multiple people to break on their own and cover the price.

Who wants to front the 27k for a net54 break? I'm in for a spot or two.
