papajim · 03-22-2010, 12:51 AM

No more T-206, Minor league players start tomorrow. I'm not into it but, good luck to all that are

This is a 1st for Etopps!

eTopps is excited to capture the game's youngest players and possibly the game's future big league stars! For the first time ever online, eTopps is now the exclusive online home of officially licensed Minor League Baseball cards. Get in early and follow your Minor Leaguers as they move their way toward the bigs.

This collection will feature players who have been judged by baseball writers and scouts to be their organization's brightest prospects, with the potential for future Major League stardom. We will offer Minor Leaguers selectively throughout the baseball season and capture players as they make their pro debuts at the Minor League level.

To celebrate the approach of Opening Day, we will begin offering cards from the eTopps Minor League Baseball collection on Monday, March 22 at 1PM EDT and continue offering additional cards during the baseball season (while of course also offering MLB cards as well)! The collection will include Minor League stars including established studs like Jesus Montero and hot young stars like Pedro Alvarez as they make their pro debuts.

The collection will be beautifully presented and delivered via a special new eTopps Minor League Baseball design, and brought to life of course on stunning eTopps technology. Cards will be offered individually, encased and be sequentially numbered.

Two Added Bonuses: Those lucky eTopps users who own eTopps Minor League cards of any player who is named MVP of their respective Minor League's 2010 All-Star Game in their online portfolio at 11:59AM (EDT) on August 31, 2010 will receive 5 eTopps Performance Bonus Reward points! In addition, eTopps users who own an eTopps Minor League card of a player who is called up to the roster of his Major League team for the first time between April and August 2010 (prior to the expansion of rosters on September 1, 2010) in their portfolio as of 11:59AM (EDT) on the next business day following their callup will receive 5 eTopps Performance Bonus Reward points as well!

Be sure to visit eTopps on Monday, March 22nd! Cards go on sale at 1PM EDT. And be sure to come back in the weeks that follow for additional cards, leading up to the debut of the 2010 eTopps Baseball season in April!

Actually should be nice looking Etopps cards. I'm just not into minors, don't follow it enough to spend $$$s on.

What license did they lose?

otmack2o · 03-22-2010, 12:30 PM

Also, why is license such a tough word to spell?

MMantle · 03-22-2010, 01:04 PM

We'll see what happens with the minor league stuff, I went in for 2 of each of the new cards. Didn't get the Arod t-206, soldout, figured might as well give the minor's a go around. Disappointed they didn't at least have 1 MLB player card this week though.

gman71 · 03-22-2010, 01:10 PM

Put in for 4 of each,I'll be more than happy with 2 each

At least they kept the price low,$4 is worth the investment on these 2

pearljam_cubbies · 03-23-2010, 04:29 PM

I put in for 2 of Alvarez....I really dont know anything about Montero so i passed on him.

MMantle · 03-29-2010, 03:37 AM

Any info on this weeks cards before they hit in a few hours? I for one am hoping for some MLB names this week, hopefully it isn't Minor Leagues for a month or so.

Was allocated the 1 Alvarez I had requested

Anyone think they will offer autographs on these at some point? Or are they something that should be flipped. I'm still new to etopps

IndySportsCards · 03-29-2010, 11:46 AM

In the past they've offered autos, but it was usually for the previous years cards. not sure how they'll do it now.

gman71 · 03-29-2010, 11:50 AM

Man,put in for 4 of each, got 1 of each. Nice sellout

MMantle · 03-29-2010, 11:51 AM

Well ended up with only 1 of each of the first 2 cards, wish it was my 2 of each like I had ordered but oh well glad I finally got someone. Don't know the players
this week but I'll do the same as last and try for 2 of each.

Pat, There are 18 of each on the bay already. What I have been doing for the last few years is:
Watch todays sales and if they seem to be going up, list for 1 day @.99 later today and keep your fingers crossed

Etopps hard core buyers are hard to figure!!

After all was said and done on the T-206 with the good & bad I made about 100+ plus on 1 day flips. Minors are new so may go up or CRASH like a jet without fuel

Why is that? Is it because they only allow 1 per person, per player? Or is it because of a sellout? I'm new at the etopps thing. Thanks.

otmack2o · 03-29-2010, 12:44 PM

I bet some people will get more than one Grant Green.

Just Etopps past few years, sellouts. The worst the card the faster the sellout, members hoping no one will buy and they will have the new Etopps short print

I know members that order 100 of each

will they be in the $hits if they ever get them

pskell02 · 03-29-2010, 01:48 PM

Alvarez is over the $4 mark. Might have to get mine up soon.

MMantle · 04-05-2010, 02:48 AM

Now we play the waiting game again and see who comes up this week.
