I wanted to pick up a box of these, and when i went to the Topps website, it says that they are currently out of stock of them. Has anyone here opened any of these up? How are they? Any big hits come from them?

Yep another quick 1,000,000 cards printed and available soon...
To be honest, no direction, but...

LAST YEARS 2012 MINI Numbers
*********** UPDATED 8/7/12 for inserts per box *******************
61 of each card gold x 661 total cards = 40,321 Gold cards.
40,321 Gold cards divided by 5 per box = 8064.2 total online Mini boxes.
You get 240 cards per box - 5 Gold's - 6 Moments and - 3 lost if you get a relic = 226 cards per relic box (229 for auto box(?))
If you take the 8064 boxes times 226 cards per box = 1,822,464 total base cards.
Assume all are base cards and divide by 661 (cards in the set) and you have between 2793 and 2757 total base card sets.

2013 MINI Numbers Best Guess (2 Box Sample) ***** 8/9/13
62 of each card gold x 660 total cards = 40,920 Gold cards.
40,920 Gold cards divided by 4 per box = 10,230 total online Mini boxes.
You get 240 cards per box - 3 Gold's -1 Pink - 1 Print Plate - 6 Chase History and - 3 lost if you get a relic = 226 cards per relic box (229 for auto box(?))
If you take the 10230 boxes times 226 cards per box = 2,311,980 total base cards.
Assume all are base cards and divide by 660 (cards in the set) and you have around 3503 total base card sets.

Normally would cost $211.96, but w/ 20% it only cost $169.57, saved $42.39....
I guess I didn't realize the run numbers from last year were that low.
I'm still looking to complete my set from last year. I'm short about 200 cards. Anyone looking to trade?

Wish I had this info 90 minutes ago. Anyone know if there is a way to cancel a topps.com order online? The customer service line dumped me to VM.

Thanks for the heads-up
I was trying not to buy any this year but with 20% I bought 3 boxes.
It is a fun cheap rip. $127

You did so will last year with the Mini’s Joe!
<< <i>With the 20% it's a no brainer. Hopefully we can trade to complete some sets like last year.

I will be up to trade to complete a set,
Hope the collation is better this year.

<< <i>What do you all think of the checklist? With no Puig base, I'm hesitant to pull the trigger(It's in my cart and ready to be bought). Although it has Manny Machado and Jose Fernandez, I'm unsure of the rest of the rookie checklist. I look at the 2012 boxes and they are currently running at $70-$85 a box. Even at $60-$75, I'm still making money. >>
10 boxes with the discount is $430 flip for $60 or more a box is a nice profit.
If I did that I would probably open them.
Can only use discount once I think.
Joe
<< <i>Anyone know the odds of pulling an auto? I thought it was 1 in 4 boxes last year. >>
I believe it is 1 in 7
1/147 auto
1/29 relic
7 boxes X 24 packs 168
Autos are tough 30-40 of each only
Joe
edited to add:
I guess that would make it 1/6 packs auto 6 x 24 = 144
Using Val's numbers there would be about 48 autos each
Storage? Does Ultra Pro make storage holders or pages for these odd cards?

I signed up and got the same code. If it doesn't work try entering the code again if you never ordered from Topps before. It happened to me one time and I clicked on apply again and it worked.
I don't think there are pages out there to fit these. I have seen them before but last year I looked and could not find any. I wish Topps would produce a binder with pages for these!
I've ordered from topps.com before, but when I placed this order, I couldn't remember my password and just purchased as a guest and received the discount.

<< <i>I signed up and got the same code mentioned on the first page of this thread. Nascar may be right with the first time ordering thing: I had ordered from them last year so maybe that's why no discount. Would like to get a few boxes but at the 80% rate. >>
I ordered Turkey Red and Heritage sets this year from them and it still worked.
Have you used a coupon in the past?
Did you sign in your account or buy as a visitor?
Strange why it works for some?
Joe
<< <i>I didn't sign in either way. Just went to Topps.com. I've contacted their customer service to see if they can help. I never used a coupon with them before. >>
Hopefully they get back to you soon and it works out.
Joe
Can't BS a BS'er.

<< <i>Well, Topps got back to me with: "Hello- We apologize the 20% off code is not valid for the minis or any exclusive products. Thank you."

I came here to add this:
We are sorry but the 20% discount code is not valid for the minis or any exclusive products. Thank you.
I hope everyone's orders go through with the 20%...that would blow if they cancelled on you.
Would never have expected that response.

I would try Google Chrome or FireFox.
Worth a shot.
<< <i>I would try using another browser. It could be cached and this is what is preventing you from using that code.

I had the same idea. I tried Explorer, Chrome and FF. I even used the private browsing window on FF (ie pron browsing window)!!!!

What am I doing wrong?
<< <i>Either I slipped through or they saw that people were applying the code and put a stop to it before too many signed up. If they cancel my order, so be it. They had better not go back and try to charge me more on my confirmed order, though.
>>
They cannot charge you again, as that would be an unauthorized charge on your card.
I also used the 20% code on a case, and would be really disappointed if they did not honor their agreement and cancelled my order.
<< <i>Ok, i'm willing to buy these things at $53/box, but how did you guys get around paying for SH? >>
They were offering free shipping on orders over $100.

Yeah, after I selected two boxes and applied the discount, I still got the free shipping even though the net price was now below $100.
