The article makes no mention of rarity, it sounds like this is his standard 2012 card. So WTF?!? Won't there be 100,000 of these out there in a few months?

If three of these cards have already been pulled by case breakers before the official release date, I am going to guess that they are not nearly as "super short-printed" as the ridiculous price of the first one indicates.
The first auction says they are opening 30 cases, the second says 60 jumbo cases, the third says 15 cases, and it is safe to assume that brentandbecca is not done breaking their 60 jumbo cases.
"Now that l'il critter has somehow become big enough to push Schumaker almost completely off his own baseball card. According to Topps, it's the first time in company history that a player's card has not featured the player's face."
That is not true.

dang it. you caught me.
but i have it on good authority that the St. Louis organization has petitioned the league to change the name of the Fall Classic to the Squirrel'd Series.
During that craze, someone bought a jumbo box from me and pulled a gold /2007 and a bronze numbered to /55 (or whatever they were numbered to) and sold both for somewhere around $1100 during the craze.
Bid retractions already starting and three listed so the price will collapse on this auction or the item will be re listed due to a non paying bidder at this price.
<< <i>Between created variations and wrapper redemptions, Topps does a good job of getting people opening a bunch of packs looking for cards like this one. >>
Their purposefully terrible collation doesn't hurt either.
The past few years, I would buy Jumbos. (10) 50 card packs.... 500 cards. 330 cards per series. Can't miss, right?
I'd get about 280 commons, 140 doubles and 80 inserts.
What a waste.
This year, I'll be buying the sets already collated.
<< <i>I think the card is pretty cool but it's still just a shameless publicity stunt by Topps. >>
Maybe Topps employees are bidding up these cards to add to the hype. Hype= more cases/boxes/packs sold.

agree. The publicity/public should also see the card sold for x amount and then say man I want to make x amount Ill take 10!! JK. Its fun to see this type of action on new product.

I think the card is pretty cool but it's still just a shameless publicity stunt by Topps.
