What's the deal with the 2006 Topps Alay Soler?

They are selling on Ebay for $100 to $150. What's the deal. Is this another super SP like the Gordon?

  • Not as big of a SP, but a very tough card to get. Estimated only 500-1000 out there I think. I think the number was something like 1 per case if lucky.
    Next MONTH? So he's saying that if he wins, the best-case scenario is that he'll be paying for it two weeks after the auction ends?

    Forget blocking him; find out where he lives and go punch him in the nuts. --WalterSobchak 9/12/12

    Is this some sort of game that Topps is playing? They say that the Gordon was a mistake. Yeah, right. Now, it's going to be impossible to complete a set. Something else too - when they do make some sort of super SP with a Cardinals player, I will be pretty ticked since I would have to pay mega bucks to get it because of my team sets. Oh well, I guess that's part of it.

    Looks like the companies are back in the 1990's error craze. Wait a few years and then pick them up for 1/4 of what they go for now. I have been burned too many times to play they game! That's 26 years of collecting talking.
  • 1/4? More like 1/10-1/100th!

    Heh. I picked up a 1989 Pro Set William Perry "Error" for about $1 on Ebay a few years back. I always wanted one of those. image How much was that thing going for back in the day?

    I actually pulled one of these yesterday at the National. Went by the Topps booth to pick up one of their promo Allen & Ginters. You have to rip three packs of any Topps product in front of them to get the card. Ripped the three packs of '06 series 2 and didn't even glance at what I pulled. Got back to the room later that night and saw that I had pulled it. Supposed to be seeded every 7800 packs or so. Definitely gonna flip that one on the Bay when I get home. May get it slabbed while I'm here - no idea if that will increase the sales value or not.
