2019 Topps Factory Sets Top Sports Mem’s List of Best Sellers

By

If you think set collecting is dead, think again.

Judging by the list of best sports card sellers at the largest online retailer in July, it’s still a big deal for a lot of collectors. 

SportsMemorabilia.com reports that the retail version of the 2019  Topps baseball factory sets outsold the other 14 best selling items combined.

While the company’s clientele ranges from avid collectors to gift buyers, it’s an indicator that the market for complete sets is still pretty viable.  It doesn’t hurt that the retail version of the 700-card set includes a five-card pack of rookie photo variations.  

While they still has the retail factory sets in stock, the hobby versions with a pack of foil board variations from across the set is sold out. 

Here’s a look at the top 15 sellers:

  1. 2019 Topps Baseball Factory Sealed Retail Complete Set– $49.99 – Contains cards #1-700 from Series 1 and Series 2. This was the top seller by far. How big?  Company officials say it outsold everything else on list combined.
  1. 2019 Topps Baseball Factory Sealed Hobby Complete Set  – Sold Out.
  1. 2019 Topps Baseball Series 1 Factory Sealed 9 Pack Fanatics Exclusive Value Box– $24.99 – This collection celebrated the 150th anniversary of baseball and this sealed nine-pack box includes 350 cards and a Fanatics exclusive 150th anniversary patch card.
  1. 2019 Topps Gypsy Queen Baseball Factory Sealed 24 Pack Box – GQ has been a strong seller since it was released prior to the MLB season–so strong this configuration is now sold out.
  1. 2018 Panini Contenders Football Factory Sealed 11 Pack Fanatics Exclusive Blaster Box– $19.99 – 11 Packs, eight cards each.
