Did anyone notice that it says there will be 750 of them available but the pull % is still 1 in 200?
Does that make sense?
I thought that was the odds for some 250 count sig cards in the past.

FYI, their Twitter account is giving away a Hamels sig. If you win because I notified you of it with this message, you owe me the sig  jk |

It should be interesting to see where the trade value falls. From a money spent stand point people will have to shell out the same amount of coins to buy packs as some much lower count cards, but then you're stuck with a 750 count card. It sounds like buying packs to chase this one would be a really poor decision.

The Super Bonus Pack is back (15000 coins!) and says it includes the Hamels sig. Since the Signature pack still says it's the ONLY place for signature inserts I think Topps is beyond wrong to do this. Add it to the tote board Of things wrong about the app I guess. Does everyone now have access to the Super Bonus Pack at the new, inflated price?

Yep, I can firm confirm that even people (like me) who didn't have access before now do have access to the pack at this ridiculous price. |

It sounds like buying packs to chase this one would be a really poor decision. They probably figure that demand for completing the 11-20 set will drive up the price anyway. Also, I wonder if they're realizing that the "sig" cards are their biggest cash cow and starting to exploit that feature more. |

yeah. the 1:200 odds is the "interesting" twist here. depending on what they do with potential future packs (ie black pack this wkend like they sometimes do) this sig might take forever to get out that thus, ppl will be somewhat justified in overpaying for it to meet the deadline. then, like with SNB and POTW, they will flood them out after wednesday and of course, once they are all out, they will be valued right around a swish/gray/ventura. sigh. time for me to officially check out.

The odds should reflect rarity. 700 does in no way require odds this high. The odds won't be taken into account when these cards are sold out too, which is the worst thing. More difficult to get than most other sigs yet pretty much worthless in sig terms come Friday or whenever they're all gone.
They're testing how far they can push this. If these sell ok, we will see 1:225+ before long.
