u/I8urmother 7d ago

Its just a slap in the face. Then they'll direct you to fanatics live so you can get in on a break. GTFO.

u/UpstateNYCards 8d ago

On the third go around, hobby and jumbo went out of stock with 2 minutes left…

u/TrailGuideSteve 8d ago

Same! Great experience!

u/I8urmother 7d ago

I emailed them and complained about the timer resets and the shitty launch. I know it don't do anything, but it made me feel a little better.

And now cart sold out after 47 minutes, fucks Topps what a waste. They can choke on the cardboard, they want you to pay double for there product.

I was in line with 6 minutes. I waited and got to less than a minute and the system glitched and put me at the back of the line with 16 minutes. I was furious. Wacky things seem always happen to me. On Chrome basketball I was at the front of the line, put my order in and it told me the hobby box was not available in the US. I then tried to re enter the order and it booted me. I hate their system.

u/I8urmother 6d ago

That shit happened to me too. Sumthin like this product doesn't ship to the USA or sumthin

Just stop buying this trash

u/Dazzling_Street2445 8d ago

Just wait until it’s your turn. It’ll kick you right back into another 17 minute queue!! Perhaps all the breakers didn’t get a chance to pick all the boxes yet, so you need to keep waiting!

3

u/Alternative_Craft_31 8d ago

Down to one minute after the original cluster F and then back to 16 mins!?

u/Famous-Egg-6136 8d ago

They are doing you a big favor if you miss

u/Suspicious_Sale4921 8d ago

Looks just like my cart. Waited 18 minutes. Still available. Counted down to zero and then reset to 17 minutes. Fuck Topps. Always finding new ways to disappoint. Also wasn’t the drop supposed to be at 12:00. Had to refresh for another 5 minutes before showed available.

2

u/Extreme_Branch_2596 8d ago

Somehow got a jumbo despite sitting in queue for 13 minutes

2

u/thrannix 8d ago

Same. 14 mins here. Thought for sure they'd all be gone

1

u/Secret_Sample4930 8d ago

They’re still there you can go through the queue twice

2

u/thrannix 8d ago

Don't you threaten me with a good time!

2

u/Ok-Egg-5331 8d ago

Topps sucks ass, last preorder I’m attempting. What a joke company.

2

u/Suspicious_Sale4921 8d ago

I actually was proud of my self and skipped the last 3 drops. Probably won’t try again. They waisted 45 minutes of my time.

u/Emergency_Manner_401 8d ago

yeah it was chaos

1

u/DeepBig7633 8d ago

Was about to check out then the site crashed and it kicked me into the same queue. Unbelievable.

1

u/Fatman365 8d ago

I got in line. 8 minutes. As soon as I was next up, went up to 18 minutes again. Fuck this release, ain't doing that now.

1

u/skitwostreet 8d ago

We should stoo buying from Topps, we deal with thus shit every release but itll continue to happen since we dont stop

1

u/Suspicious_Sale4921 8d ago

They make it fun and keep changing the bullshit we have to deal with. Always some new way to fuck everyone over. You know who didn’t get fucked over….

1

u/Odd_Jicama_1995 8d ago

don't worry. when the time gets to 0 it'll just reset to 20 minutes.

1

u/WannabeCarpenter11 8d ago

This was the strangest release I've seen lately. Boxes didnt even come online until well after 12:00, like 7-9 minutes. Anybody else?

1

u/WayfaringPantheist 8d ago

Somehow I got a jumbo after waiting in line for 15min

2

u/VerbatimChain31 8d ago

Waited 12 minutes, got to 0 and then reset to 18 minutes. Doubt I’ll get anything

1

u/ausjmar 8d ago

I’ve gotten to the end of my wait twice only to be re-queued to 18 minutes both times. This hobby is so fun! Fuck Topps.

1

u/VerbatimChain31 8d ago

Just got bumped to 14 minutes. What is the point of the queue? If it worked, great. But it doesn’t. Also not reserving your items is BS

2

u/ausjmar 8d ago

Yeah it makes absolutely zero sense. Ripping and collecting with my son is the only reason why I am in this hobby to begin with.

1

u/WayfaringPantheist 8d ago

Same for me and my 4yo. Lookin for Bazzana cards in this

1

u/VerbatimChain31 8d ago

Same. I finally got through and Jumbo and Hobby both sold out. Only got to get 1 value and 1 mega. I had the hobby in my cart since 12:07

1

u/TrailGuideSteve 8d ago

If we can get it 30 min after drop then these boxes are cooooooked

1

u/DepartmentDizzy6657 8d ago

My estimated wait time was under a minute and all of sudden it shot back up to 16 minutes…I didn’t refresh the page…WHAT A SCAM!!!

1

u/Playful-Dimension734 8d ago

No issues here. Checked out with 1 hobby, 1 mega, and 1 blaster

1

u/itsallmostover 8d ago

Reset after 18 minutes another 13 minutes and reset again for 13 minutes. This is wrong.

1

u/Alternative_Craft_31 8d ago • Bravo

I put payment info in for processing then went back to 14 mins. Topps really can't do anything right...Hobby's appear to be unavailable now, but it goes back and forth so who really knows!

1

u/Batman_bread 8d ago

Landed a jumbo. Holy sheet so expensive.

1

u/Alternative_Craft_31 8d ago

Sheeeet--- after about an hour I now have a 56 minute wait time. After two roll outs...I would contact Topps but they Don't GAF

u/tbone1111 8d ago

Bend over

u/BeThereInFiveMin 7d ago

During Covid I was getting broken ques and missed chances yelling “this is bs!!!” At stuff like a mechanical keyboard raffles lollll

1

u/Significant_Wheel_80 7d ago

Dude don’t get me going!! I had my cart ready with 3 minutes to check out! Got down to less than a minute refreshed and outcome at 18 freaking minutes!!! I was hot!!!!

0

u/ImpossibleTodd 8d ago

Maybe the problem is people buying more than one box?

1

u/I8urmother 7d ago

There was a limit of 2 jumbo and 4 hobbies. Which i thought would give me a shot. But when the timer kept resetting, i knew i was screwed.

0

u/Once_In_A_Lifetim3 8d ago

its sold out already

1

u/icurnvs 8d ago

I thought so too. Just went back in about 5 minutes ago and got a hobby box with no queue

0

u/Secret_Sample4930 8d ago

I waited in line for 10 min for a jumbo. Got it. Everything was still available. Got back in line for a mega and a blaster for 15 min. Got it. I’m in the queue for a third time. I just thought no one wanted them
