Topps High Number Heritage
|
Given that these are not sold out yet I wonder if the print run is larger than last year. Anyone have thoughts? I basically bought it to complete my 13 Heritage set and will deal the auto if it's not PC.
2009 New York Yankees Autos Project: 29/52 (56% complete)

There's probably an unlimited limited run I guess if I saved used tinfoil and used tea bags instead of old comic books and old baseball cards, the difference between a crazed hoarder and a savvy collector is in that inherent value. 
So I guess it's okay to open. Should have bought last year. Damn. Lol.
Just like the 2013 Mini online exclusive-- probably a lot more made than in 2012.

They can always print more. How would we know if there were 1000 or 10,000?

Last year's sets took a couple weeks to sell out. I think the limit per order was 10? This time it's a case (24)? The print run is definitely more. There are only 9 more autos than last year's release. My best shot-in-the dark guess would be that the print run is somewhere near 2500. Of course I could be way off.

RE: Topps High Number Heritage
If you're buying it an expecting it to be like last year, I think you'll be disappointed. The "limited" print run must not be all that limited since almost 12 hours later they're still selling 24-box cases of them for $2399.99... which is more expensive than buying 24 individual boxes at $99.99. Looks like they overprinted them again.
Very low. Not a good investment. Puigmania is dying off, not to mention we have no idea how many were printed. I don't see the 2013 Rookie Class having near the demand of the 2012 class longterm, but it'll hardly matter if the print run is huge. This is a lesson. When Topps has a NEW "online exclusive" in its first year, BUY IT. That's their testing period. Once it's a success, they'll beat the dead horse year after year by printing tons of it.
