Also raised pack prices to 7500 and "increased the odds" I thought the pack price increased! Looks like they didn't sell a lot of 500k coin bundles. So, increase the odds of the pack and offer a free card to complete the set and hope people spend money to buy coins and packs(at a more expensive price) to chase the free card. Nah, I'll just keep my wallet closed. Why can't they make budles cheaper instead of the rediculous 500k

A pack for 7500 coins with all the current inserts and increased odds of new base would be really nice.

Most new inserts and SC and SR only. Not just new base. 7500 coins. Staying away from this one too. This is an awful lot of 5k and 7.5k packs out to get people to buy coins. Makes me think they want people to use their coins now. Possibly a really popular sig tomorrow? Maybe a 250 limit Stanton or something.

The selection of players within some of these sets really makes me think that the team at Topps Bunt is on Autopilot these days. Joe Nathan as an award - really? Why couldn't they decide on a legend like Mariano, Trevor Hoffman, Dennis Eckersley, Billy Wagner, etc. The Aces award was great, but why do we have to deal with AJ Burnett as a part of the set when players like Jeff Samardzija don't have any inserts and are more of an Ace? I just don't get it what they are doing lately.

Yep, they've run me out of the game in terms of spending money. Let me be clear, I'm not mad about it or anything. I just was trying to stay up to date as much as possible but with so many sets now, I just can't. I don't have that much free cash to spend on BUNT. I spend more than I should already. I just can't see upping it anytime soon.
So instead, I'm actually buying less coin and just chasing the Giants.
Not sure how it's working out as a whole for Topps, but I know this 3 sets a week has got me to spend less, not more.
Once again, not complaining, just my observation.

They'll probably have an All-Star set and a HR Derby set soon. Other than that, I can see them recycling some of the older sets, like Heritage, Bowman and Fired Up considering the physical versions include additional players.
