Anyone else notice how Chris' case price has dropped over the last few days?

Now down to $350 per, or $325 each for two.

Demand not as high as expected, or did Topps hit the presses big time?

Default Just saw...

a post on the nonsportsupdate site shows the back of a pack with the stated odds:
Memorabilia Cards 1:44
Sketch Cards 1:86
Autographs 1:135

Seems like a legit scan of a wrapper.

Best to All,
Vinny

A lot of releases go down just before live. Americana was at $2100 and then jumped after it hit the streets. I wouldnt read much into the price drop. I still think the autos and sketch cards are going to do great!

Can we assume with that breakdown that the Autos will command a pretty penny? I sure as heck hope so with only 1 per case.
Man it would be nice to pull a Hayden

Already punted my 2 cases, made $150 profit. Not bad for swapping a mailing label.

I think this is what was referred to earlier in this thread. This came from another board:

I just busted through my 5 cases. I will not post any pictures or anything, but the Claire patch costume is the hardest to get (I did not pull one) followed by the Claire Costume, then the Hiro shirt/Issac Shirt.

I pulled 8/11 autos. Missing Adrian Pasdar, Noah Gray-Cabey, and of course Hayden Panettiere. Have an extra of Sendhil. It should also be known that Hiros signature is prob going to tick some people off, just a little mark really. Also, Milo did not sign his entire name like the sample on the Topps site, he only signed Milo. I am a little let down by this. I definetly did not do well with my cases. My sketches were pretty awful, I only pulled two or three that were really detailed, and although Color is NOT the norm (I know) I did not pull a single color sketch. All of my sketches are for trade and will go up on Ebay to go towards the three missing autos and the impossible patch card. I will get scans up after the weekened, I do not want to tick anyone off by breaking the street date.
