I'm really, really surprised there were no St. Patty's Day cards, though.  In fact, I would have staked money on it.  There doesn't seem to be any rhyme or reason to to this whole 24 hour thing.  None at all.  "Lucky Trumps" (Charms) would have fit the occasion perfectly.

"Lucky Trumps" would've been hilarious! Full of potential funniness! I submitted one yesterday morning for St Patty's Day, but couldn't get it approved in time :(

Here's the pencil concept for a little amusement:

See?  This is what I'm on about.  This would have been great!  (I like the idea of Trump painting the coal gold.  Very suggestive.  Even more so because of that wicked grin.)

Thanks for sharing this!  I'm appreciative, though somewhat disappointed at the same time.  I only wish it could have been fully realized.  Perhaps someday?  After all, we have four long years to go!

I don't believe so. The "Thank Me Tour" title is dated 12/06/16.  Patrick first suggested the idea of a Bulk Buyer Club over a month later on January 18th.  The "Alternative Tally Counter" is the first title the Club purchased and is dated 1/22/17.  If you back to page 4 of this thread, you'll find the first of the increment lists that Patrick has been posting detailing the purchases of the BBC.  From there, you can go and see everything purchased up until yesterday.

what BB said is correct.
the "Thank Me Tour Ticket" was released before our club started.
The Tour Ticket card was part of the Disgrace to the Whitehouse set.
Our BBC started just after the Disgrace set finished, and began with the Trumpocracy and Alternative Facts sets (with a few Network Spews in there as well)
You can view all the Disgrace cards in the Master List.

Got 'em!  I'm surprised it was two days for the weather here, but heck, the last time it got from Texas to me in 2 days, on a Saturday when it was scheduled for Monday, so I'm now even!

Got them yesterday. Many thanks to Patrick. I count  64 On-Line Only Wacky Pack cards in my binder at present from all of the on-line offerings except the Lynch Tribute set.  That number will be 80 when the next 16 arrive. This collection is growing rapidly. Very happy about the buyer's club.

Again, there is absolutely no rhyme or reason to this.  I've never seen anything so arbitrary.  I was under the impression that corporations - or for that matter, any business - followed some kind of plan, sales projections, etc. to determine future growth?  If the "plan" is to simply follow the news and hope that some celebrity will do something absurd or a member of the Trump camp will say something outrageous, I would say the plan is, through its very nature, rather unreliable, and consequently, weak.

I do like some of the 24 hour titles, but some part of me secretly wishes that Topps will just put an end to this experiment (for, in essence, that's what it is, e.g. "Twitster") and just go back to releasing sets on a periodic basis.  And I've a strong feeling I'm not alone in this regard.  It feels like we're pigeons pecking at whatever is being thrown to us, whenever it is being thrown to us.  I think we would all be more comfortable, though, with premium seed on a fixed schedule.

On another note, would anyone happen to know how much proceeds was generated from the Jay Lynch Tribute Set - and how Topps plans on utilizing said funds?  Just curious.

I wonder if the 'snow days' late last week affected things this week. who knows. does seem odd after such a consistent T-W-Th schedule.

you'll get your premium seed next week with the 50th Anniversary set.

topps has yet to release the sales numbers on the Jay set. they've been good about releasing the numbers for all others sets, so it's a bit odd.

not sure how you buried your question inside the quote?

But no, the price in the bundle is not even close, as bulk buy is not offered for the bundles.
The cards in the bundle are $8.33 each. Our bulk buy is $4 each.
