<< <i>Has anybody come across a team card retail variation. Since there are no cut autos in retail and, in prior years, the checklists varied between retail and hobby, I was wondering if anybody has come across a variation (retail - no cut autos listed or Target/Walmart specific that show the T205s or Perez subsets)?

Packman,
Assuming Cleveland (476) is the last team card, the one I got from a retail box contains a checklist for ten cut signatures.
Since my scan wouldn't upload, the signatures are: Alison, Drysdale, Mathews, Wynn, Frick, Burdette, Mantle, Ashburn, Clemente, and Spahn. The packs, however, do not show odds for cut signatures.
<< <i>Hi, I'm Scott and have gotten hooked on Heritage the last few years. I love the cards.
This is the first year that i broke down and bought a case of Heritage. I pulled 2 autos from my case, Bob Blaylock & Vito Valentinetti, nothing much else that was too great.
I have a question that hopefully someone can answer. One or two of my boxes had cards that were damaged. I'm not sure what happened. Does anybody know what i have to do to get Topps to replace these. I have 125 to send back and would prefer to just send 1 package.
Thanks, Scott >>
Hi Scott - welcome to the forum and the Heritage addiction.
Topps will replace your damaged cards. Just send them your reciept, wrappers, UPC codes from the boxes. I would email them first at support@etopps.com and they'll reply with all the info requiered and the address to send it all to
I was back in my office today, and the 57-dollar boxes down the street were too much to resist. One box was a dud. The other was decent. Guess which was which.
Collector of 1976 Topps baseball for some stupid reason. Collector of Pittsburgh Pirates cards for a slightly less stupid reason. My Pirates Collection
Nice pulls guys. For those of you I have trades with they all shipped out today, if you have proposed a trade and I haven't gotten back to you it's because I have to updated my needs list, I'll have a new one posted tomorrow.
I opened 2 Wal-Mart blasters today. Pulled Mantle Dick Perez and a Black refractor Brad Penny. That is the first black refractor I have pulled since Heritage started in 2001.
Many of the packs had 2 or 3 Black backs and 3 SPs per box.
OK guys, I'm most of the way through sorting at this point, with only commons to go. I've already managed a couple of good trades, but I'm hoping the trading season is still young. I'm looking for the following:
All right, gentlemen, explain this to me. Which one goes in the binder?
Orange, Red, two tone? I have the orange one and red one above. They are two distinct colors.
Also, who's doing the advertising panels? I have been buying them up and I think that was a foolish venture. Let me know which ones you need and they are yours. Plus, just got 6 of them from Ebay for $2.00. Terrible listing.
I got 13 boxes opened last night and one on the commute to work today. Very safe driving. Here is the breakdown. Bottom right corners suck and some of my SPs have blue marks on them on the top. Have not hit anything TOO great yet so hopefully something big will come out of the last 10 boxes. Chrome set will be a breeze but the refractor set is going to be TOUGH. Have lots of unopened panels and buybacks as I don't know if I want to open those or not. I left my SP and blackback checklist at work (computer at home isn't working) so I'm not exactly sure what I'm missing for the black back set (I think 1 or 2). LOTS of doubles. I'm a firm believer in the non-SPs SP. I don't think I've pulled a green back Phillip Hughes out of 19 boxes now.
Think I've gotten 6 buybacks out of these 14 boxes.....
box 4---back to the status quo Carl Crawford Jersey 3 chrome 1 refractor
box 5- Blalock and Smoltz Jersey---ya! 3 chrome 1 refractor
box 6 Dunn jersey 5 chrome 1 refractor
box 7 No GU 4 chrome 1 refractor
box 8 Cabrera Jersey 2 chrome
box 9--ink---sort of Aramis REAL ONE AUTO (redemption ) 3 chrome 1 refractor
box 10 Aramis and Berkman Jerseys 3 chrome 1 refractor
Box 11 Dmitri Young Jersey 3 chrome 1 refractor
box 12 Verlander Jersey 3 Chrome 1 refractor
Box 13 Maz Seat Relic---LAST PACK OF THE NIGHT! 3 chrome 1 refractor
Overall pretty happy. Got Dice-K and Griffey refractors. Of all the chrome I pulled only 2 were doubles. My box on the way to work today I got another Howard jersey and hit about 5 SPs that I know I need so that was good. Going to need to make some trades probably on Thursday I'll get the list up!

My walmart here had blasters. I missed my heritage addicts meeting so I forgot how to say no and bought them all. I am now hitting target twice a day and have the lady at the end isle call me by name and tried to tell me that some 2007 topps baseball "just came in".
I was seen by young girls and boys inside walmart on the bench cursing out small silver 4 card packs because all I was seeing was the same Ortiz, Ichiro, Lincecum packs. I was caught talking to myself in the parking lot on the way to the car, mumbling something about finding a certain NAP 5. After I left a rescue team had to help a huge bird out of a mass of some sort of chewed pink mess in the parking lot...I know nothing about that!

GET AWAY FROM MY GUM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
We have no Wal Mart's in NYC, and my closest Target's shelves have looked the same for over a week. Some stooge neatens it up every day, but its the same 15 or 20 boxes of crap. I'm going to Jersey today for a while so I will hit a few Wal Marts and Targets out there, but all I have seen so far at Wal MArts in NJ are the retail blister packs that are individually sealed in that plastic see through coffin.
I'm waiting to pull the Seward 1 of 1 auto cut on the Alaska card, the 08 Castro, the Antartica penguin proof..... Ya, pulls that will never happen! Glad I only brought 1 box to open on the way to work today or I would have not gotten anything done!

I'm avoiding retail in the hope that I'll be able to pick up Perez and 205 sets on the cheap sometime soon - I have enough issues with Target since I'm usually seen there trying to explain to a 4 year old and a 2 year old that all the Hot Wheels Monster Trucks in stock are ones we already have at home...
Well after hitting every place I could think of for Heritage, which means 7 Walmarts 1 Target and 4 card shops, I managed to come home with a whopping 9 hobby packs which looked to be picked over pretty well. Nothing absolutely amazing out of them, but I did shatter the odds I pulled 3 chrome and a Scott Podsednik Auto redemption, of course when you factor in gas those packs probably cost me $10 each so I'm not sure I did that well.
None of the 3 WalMarts closest to me have any Heritage yet, and the closest Target is about 45 minutes drive away. Besides, I'm kinf of holding out until after Easter, to see if my will power is still around.
I had a Black refractor of Roy Halladay sell on ebay this weekend. Just got an email from the buyer.......this sort of goes along with collecting super player sets...

Always looking for Topps Salesman Samples, pre '51 unopened packs, E90-2, E91a, N690 Kalamazoo Bats, and T204 Square Frame Ramly's
I have a fresh supply of SP's, inserts and other cards now available. If you have black refs or autos that you would like to trade hit me up. I have made 3 trades so far and they were easy. If we are in the middle of something and I haven't gotten back to me just PM me and remind me. I have a few unidentified stacks of stuff on my desk. I also now have a good supply of the Perez cards if anyone is intersted in them.
Ok, now I have bought 4 Blasters and pulled 3 Mantle Perez cards.. Not complaining cause one just sold on Ebay for 40.00 but would like to see other cards in the set.
So I went to Target and found 2 unopened box's of Heritage. Bought them and got 10 different T-205, 1 Black Ref (Vernon Wells), and a few chrome. The only bad thing was that I got 2 of almost every single base card. Out of 308 cards I got about 170 different ones. I got 14 SP's but only 7 were different. Wow. talk about messed up. It was like a cruel joke. LOL!!! Walmart doesnt seem to have any heritage so I cant seem to get the Perez cards. But I will still keep checking.
WOW, I really should of been more on top of things, I have a stack of Perez cards last night that I could of made good money on had I listed them. I went ahead and listed some tonight, including the first complete set. I probably missed the boat on these but if I can land a few of these aucitions they it would buy me more retail! Anything to feed the habit huh?
Kevin if that set sells, it will be another 6 blasters for you. I'm really kicking myself, there was a smoltz variation the other day with a $40 bin and I hesitated a little to long....the one tonight ended for $129, guess I'll have a hole in the binder.
Whoever Kevin spoke with at Topps was right. The Santanas are fairly plentiful, while the Smoltz's aren't popping up all that often. The other one that closed today went for $100 best offer - the seller had a $145 BIN/BO up. He probably should have held out a few more hours - there are none up at the moment.
Kevin, if someone actually hits your $125 BIN, you should be ecstatic. The Perez cards aren't very hard to pull, are they? What are they seeded, 1:4 or something like that?
I'll admit it, I bought the Smoltz that went for $100. I originally offered $60, and he countered with $100. When I saw the other one go up to $96 with plenty of time left I didn't bother countering again and scooped it up because he had made the same offer to another bidder as well. I picked up a Santana from him as well for $40.
