Sorry Lippo
What are those postage figures?

graham · Mar 9, 2006

LMAO - Topps have more money than sense!! Nice work though mate - interested in seeing some scannage!! Good to see they replaced Mr Vazquez. It reminds me I have some to send off. Better get to it

JZA · Mar 9, 2006

id say topps would have some kind of mass postage discount deal with USPS, no way they are paying $11.55US each for all the thousands of redemptions.

Topps send each redemption card back INDIVIDUALLY!! So each card at $11.50 per parcel and he got 3 bundles of parcels, the postage figure is the combined postage Topps spent to get them to him!

Lippo · Mar 9, 2006

Yep sorry, should have said earlier.

All of the envelopes were sent individually.

Topps would get about that much for an entire case of Finest I reckon #-o

Ill include some scans, unfortunately no coloured refractors

lockymac · Mar 9, 2006

Oh man
That is crazy
They will go the way of Fleer if they keep that up!

WoobieZarz · Mar 9, 2006

FAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARK!!!!

That's hell funny. Imagine being the mail-boy for Topps taking them to the PO... LMAO!

Would love to see scans. Good to see all the Bogey's!! Cant wait to see the coloured ones!!

What's even funnier is when someone sends a letter addressed to "Devin Harris" to your house and your mum sends it back "Return To Sender - Not At This Address"

Now THAT'S hilarious!!!!

kidd05 · Mar 9, 2006

LMAO!!!!!!!!!! Someone sent me something before and it was addressed to Jason Kidd. Good thing my dad knew who Jason Kidd is.

My dad is cooler than all your dad's combined!

Btw.. that's a huge mailday Mike! We can start a bonfire with the parcels!

jimboiitmac · Mar 9, 2006

awesome man, that's a very nice finest lot..

Hennessy · Mar 9, 2006

Beautiful bundles of Finest man. You've been waiting for awhile for these and it looks great together. Two thumbs up on those Boguts man!!

Too bad for Topps for the shipping charges. LOL!

nvd001 · Mar 10, 2006

on the topic of the huge shipping charges.....i got a parcel yesterday from the US. inside were a pack of wrist bands!! in the packet, they would fit in the palm of you hand!!

the bands cost $2 + $5.25 for postage...but they turn up in a large global priority mailer (about A4 size, if not slightly bigger!!)with the shipping charge on the sticker on the front.....$9.80 to post!!

he's out $2.65, and that doesnt even include the listing fees etc!!

how do these people have a profitable business!!
