Topps Living set price manipulation

[drcy]

As an aside, I remember an exclusive, very limited Topps set, sold as complete sets but with inserts in them. Topps stated the number of sets made, the number of inserts inserted into each set and the number of each insert. However, mathematically, the numbers didn't work out. The number of sets, divided by the insert insertion rate and the number of each insert didn't equate mathematically. You actually got a fraction of a card for a particular insert.

I thought ebay had a policy of no "pre-sells ? Is this no longer a policy on ebay ?

I buy pre sales for Topps now and Topps Living cards often so short answer is that Ebay allows them.

The bundle of 3 cards each week is still available for $14.99. Individual cards can be purchased at $7.99 each or as low as $3.75 each for 20 cards.

The Ronald Acuna card this past week has a print run of 46,800! The next closest print run this year was Ohtani at 20,966.

I'm not sure how this plays in what you are referring to in the OP, or if it is just information that's not relevant. The crazy 47k print run of Acuna blew me away!
