Type in your search as "2009 topps heritage -american" and it will weed out a bunch of the 09 American Heritage.....

Can't wait guys -- is it possible that I might have boxes before the weekend???

Craig in Texas

<< Is it just me or is anyone else tired of wading through all the 09 American Heritage to see if anything has popped up on Ebay yet.....

In a related note, is it just me or is anyone else tired of waiting for this set to come out!!!! >>

joestalin · February 25, 2009 2:20AM

OK, I see a live box, there is mine? Im calling my shop!

Kevin

bhelser · February 25, 2009 4:31AM

just got confirmation from my distributor that my 6 boxes have shipped - will have them on Friday!

ArchStanton · February 25, 2009 4:39AM

I just came from my dealer. His Heritage did not arrive today. I am out of luck.

joestalin · February 25, 2009 5:07AM

I just called my dealer and he has 6 boxes waiting for me right now!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

Be back soon!

BunchOBull · February 25, 2009 5:09AM

Awesome. Can't wait to see the rip.

TNP777 · February 25, 2009 5:27AM

With Kevin's news, I just called Joe. He's getting on the horn with his distributor - I should hear back from him shortly.

edit: Joe's distributor hasn't heard anything. He'll call as soon as he does.

edit #2: nothing up on the Bay yet. Hope Kevin's dealer didn't get him fired up for nothing.

joestalin · February 25, 2009 6:22AM

Im back, man this stuff is beautiful. Scans soon

Kevin

joestalin · February 25, 2009 6:25AM

First box:

nam812 · February 25, 2009 6:26AM

Is that a Griffey black refractor?

HeritageAddict · February 25, 2009 6:27AM

Very NICE!!!!!!

joestalin · February 25, 2009 6:28AM

no just reg chrome...there are back variations!

HeritageAddict · February 25, 2009 6:28AM

I guess it's only fitting the person that started the thread opens the first packs. Now give me more scans!!!

NewHeritageCollector · February 25, 2009 6:30AM

Very nice. Is it time for retail to come out yet?

<< First box:

joestalin · February 25, 2009 6:30AM

looks like all the high numbered short prints are dark backs. I also pulled a card that just said Aramis on the front no last name..hmmm

TNP777 · February 25, 2009 6:33AM

dark back - are those the back variations you were speaking of?

Knopfler · February 25, 2009 6:33AM

<< looks like all the high numbered short prints are dark backs. I also pulled a card that just said Aramis on the front no last name..hmmm >>

Are there light back versions of the high numbers too?

joestalin · February 25, 2009 6:35AM

wow the odds suck!

This thread is about to light up red dawn

joestalin · February 25, 2009 6:42AM

wow I just hit red ink

matthewbschultz83 · February 25, 2009 6:44AM

That original 60 card is very clean. Much better shape than the 59s they inserted!

TNP777 · February 25, 2009 6:45AM

<< wow I just hit red ink >>

don't tease, man - who is it?

So this is how you guys felt when I was busting my case last year

Knopfler · February 25, 2009 6:45AM

Over/Under on when this thread hits 1000 posts is Sunday at 10pm Central Time.

nam812 · February 25, 2009 6:46AM

Actually this year's chrome, refractor, and black refractor odds are better than last year's.

joestalin · February 25, 2009 6:46AM

bittersweet:

TNP777 · February 25, 2009 6:47AM

hi Nick!

NewHeritageCollector · February 25, 2009 6:50AM

Nice auto...

I'll guess by 2pm eastern on Sunday

joestalin · February 25, 2009 6:52AM

Set builders will not be disappointed, this base set is one of the most beautiful in years!

NewHeritageCollector · February 25, 2009 6:52AM

<< This thread is about to light up red dawn >>

WOLVERINES!

Keep the scans coming. Need something to take my mind off of layoffs happening tomorrow.

Hi Geordie.

Vintage90Topps · February 25, 2009 6:56AM

Looks like the blog world has already picked up on this thread:

http://completist.wordpress.com/

joestalin may be the first one anywhere to have 2009 Heritage

TNP777 · February 25, 2009 6:57AM

Kevin - beat the Korea/Japan sellers - put the Griffey up with a $15 BIN and watch it get hit lightning-quick.

Link to above mentioned blog.. Wonder how long it'll take Mario to somehow disparage the product.

joestalin · February 25, 2009 6:58AM

I'm crushing the odds here:

TNP777 · February 25, 2009 7:00AM

still the first box, Kevin?

HeritageAddict · February 25, 2009 7:08AM

Yeah this years odds are rough for regular autos, no more guaranteed auto per case and if you hit a cut auto you are very lucky.

The cut auto odds doesn't suggest less product made.

VitoCo1972 · February 25, 2009 7:16AM

<< The cut auto odds doesn't suggest less product made. >>

No, but the others do. It just suggests less cuts period

joestalin · February 25, 2009 7:20AM

I have opened up all 6 boxes. Mostly GU in the boxes, one box had 2. The chromes seemed to be more per box. Only 2 originals in 6 boxes. The base
set is amazing. Ill have a review on my blog soon.

Kevin

stown · February 25, 2009 7:22AM

JS - They are stealing your scans without concent nor true props.

http://i217.photobucket.com/albums/cc33/WaxHeaven/Wax Heaven Image Bank/her.jpg

Going forward, I would watermark your scans...

TNP777 · February 25, 2009 7:22AM

GU scans, please!

joestalin · February 25, 2009 7:23AM

yeah I'm not too happy about that, but I think we might do the same. I don't mind sharing my pics with you guys. More to come!

Kevin

HeritageAddict · February 25, 2009 7:27AM

Geordie, does Joe need me to make some phone calls to his distributor?

TNP777 · February 25, 2009 7:30AM

lol - no, I don't think so, Doran. He's already called once today.

HeritageAddict · February 25, 2009 7:32AM

Well we all know Kevin is on his way back to the shop for the other 6 boxes.

joestalin · February 25, 2009 7:37AM

<< Well we all know Kevin is on his way back to the shop for the other 6 boxes.

That is all my shop got. They were mad the middle man got cut and they forgot to order. Everyone says this stuff has been cut, but
judging by the odds this isn't the case.

Kevin

TNP777 · February 25, 2009 7:38AM

Doran - Joe just called. His distributor has received product and is shipping to him today. He expects to have it in his hands tomorrow morning.

HeritageAddict · February 25, 2009 7:44AM

Geordie, thanks for the update, so if I get really lucky I might get it by Saturday!

lsutigers1973 · February 25, 2009 7:54AM

I don't see what all the excitement is about. Looks like a lot of crap to me.

TNP777 · February 25, 2009 7:59AM

Easy there, Debbie Downer
