    I think his P2020 and Chrome releases are ugly. Guess I’m not sure how adding diamond graphics and chains adds any value to a card release. The stuff is flat out ugly IMO - the guy isn’t even a graphic artist, he is a jeweller.

    Thank you I felt the same way and just thought it was me till I google his stuff and then really didn't find anyone who liked his stuff. He put on his Instagram that topps website crash because of his product lol I went on had no problem at all. All his stuff over the top and don't get it.

    My fave Franklin quote, that man was ahead of his time.

    I was made aware this evening. I didn't try to order one, but it seems they were available. The site didn't say sold out that I saw. I could be wrong. I thought about it briefly (if I even had a shot then), but after looking at the checklist and sizing up the price, I felt like it was a turd of a deal. Base set of 32 cards. Making an assumption here, but it make it seem like the parallels were for the autos only. 1 auto of either base or numbered. For a Dodger fan, hitting a Dodger auto is usually a good thing, but the thought of spending $100, even if I hit a 1/1 auto, it would probably be Blake Treinen or Alex Wood! I figured a base team set should be maybe a $30 item, if that. That leaves about $70 for an autograph. Unless you hit Koufax, or a lower number parallel of Bellinger, seems like money not well spent. No chance for a Betts or Kershaw auto either.

    I may someday want to kick today me's ass for passing, but I just don't think it's worth it...and I collect Dodgers! $50 and I would probably be a buyer.

    I collect Steve Garvey, Dodgers and signed cards. Collector since 1978.
