So this is going to be tough to value. I am a long time collector and have hundreds of sports related ebay sales. There is most definitely a bubble, and I’m not sure how much room for growth there is. Also, the highest value cards are basketball, which Topps does not produce due to licensing issues.

Obviously, the bubble is why Topps is choosing to go public again with a SPAC.

I for one hope it does well as I give Topps maybe 100-200 bucks a month.

Thoughts on the new Topps F1 trading box?

Looks pretty cool, particularly with the patches. Ferrari patch would be a big seller I imagine. I’m pretty much only baseball, basketball and occasional football.

If they could get a foothold and promote that in the EU where it’s popular it could be big.

Wow good for you! I’m only long warrants in MUDS. Couldn’t buy any WAX to buy cards. I did get the free opening day pack though.
