[quote=Incarnadine;31733]He didn't do great. He didn't get the Hayden auto which is the obvious #1 but he did get a Milo and Masi which I consider to be the 2nd and 3rd best autos. No Claire patch card either but I expect those to be at least 1 in 10 cases if not tougher. Where he crashed is the sketches, except for the Edward Pun sketches (he did 100, unless he did more that we don't know about yet) he got all higher numbered artists, 2 grant goulds (550), 2 Rousseau (no numbers but he usually%

I hope everyone that bought this product pulls some great hits. At first I thought about buying this or Americana the more I thought about it I decided to buy the American glad I did (group case break and I bought 1 case $1717.00 delivered flipped it the next day for $2250.00). I turned down 10 cases of heroes for under $300.00 a case but if you remember I also turned down Star Wars at a really cheap price don't remember what it was but it's in the star wars thread. I hope since I didn't buy any that it will shy rocket like star wars did. Good luck to everyone.

Well this looks like a product where the big hits will be BIG. Someone jumped the gun on the street date and listed cards already. The Hayden auto is barely out of the gate and is over $200 already. No Claire patch card yet but that should do nearly as well, and of course the really nice sketches (despite what we've seen we know they are out there) will do well.

Is there no honor among people anymore? Sellers that do this are taking advantage of every other seller that either cannot get the produt early, OR have the honor and integrity to wait until release like they are supposed to do.

I can tell you this...if I really needed a card badly, and there were very, very few of them, perhaps even only 1, I would NOT buy from a seller that cheated in this manner.

Am I missing something? Isn't this wrong?

There won't be an American way if we continue to cheat everyone in all facets of life. At least not an American way to be proud of.

Found one in an e-bay store listed for BIN of $2400. None up for auction that I could find. The listing in the store says that there are between 10 & 20 made.

The one in the store is one of the autographs given out at the Philly non-sport show, a number of cast members signed cards that TOPPS made for the philly show (on card autographs, not stickers) and they were given away bt random draw. There is one on the regular listings, try "heroes autograph" for the search. This one is a sticker auto and has a different picture. I've heard estimates of 50-100 made but that's just guesswork so far I think.

I was pretty upset when I heard they were being listed already.
None other than the Bryan guy that the above 5 case break is from. I did post something about it on the Non-Card site about how since he decided to "list early" we will get an idea of what the cards are worth.
My only worry is by the time I get mine at the end of the week or so, are the costume cards even going to have any value?

And judging by his feedback he could care less what anyone thinks!!!!!!!!!!

I've been bitching about this for years and the card companies really don't give a crap. If they did, all they would need to do is coordinate something with eBay and have one of their interns just troll the site for early listers and have eBay zap them.

Yes, I do get my product early, but I ALWAYS abide by the release date. You will never see me list any singles from a product BEFORE a release date on eBay. I just post on the boards so people get an idea of what the product looks like and what to expect from their breaks.

But yes, it's wrong and the people who do it know they're wrong, they just don't care because there are no reprocussions to their actions because the card companies are spineless.
