I just bought a pack of 2016 Bowman Platinum baseball. I don't see them on the site. Am I missing something? Mainstream sets are usually on here long before the release date.
-------------------------------
I'm going to reevaluate how I collect after the new year. It's just getting way too expensive for the new stuff. Sometimes I just want to buy a pack, not a whole box or even blaster.

That Beckett link says this is a Walmart exclusive set, that could probably be why

The card section at my Walmarts is up by the checkout lanes . I have also found these at Kmart and Toys R Us .

All the Walmarts I visit, the trading cards are next to either the first or last checkout lane.
-------------------------------
Someday my cards may double in value and then be worth half of what I paid for them.

Here in ChristmasLand (stupid canadian weather >( over a foot of snow already here) at my WalMart single packs are at last checkout beside express lanes but there is also a whole aisle in the toy department, and since the dollar has tanked against the greenback everything is WAY overpriced and out of my budget. $30 to $40 just for a retail blaster box. Not a chance in h-e-double hockey sticks!! Now I'll go enjoy the fact that all my lawnmowers, yard furniture and everything else you use in the sun is buried in white #%^&*. I WAS NOT READY FOR WINTER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
BTW this is ranfordfan (just an alter-ego for my RC collecting)

Just good ol' "ranfordfan" in disguise.

I'm posting the checklists. Not sure when I'll be done, but it will be tonight.
Edit: There are 4 of the insert sets that I goofed when trying to copy (instead of just uploading the checklist again with different SNs). I have alread alerted Admin to pull them so I can fix them.
There is also an insert set that has more cards than it's supposed to. Again, Admin has been alerted.
The LAST thing about this product: The Next Generation and Next Generation Prospects insert sets - Cardboard Connection claims there are printing plates for these, however Beckett does not. I checked ebay for listings and sales, and did not see any (plenty of the other ones there, but no NGs or NGPs). If no one has any proof of their existence, we should pull those listings. Admin has NOT been alerted about that yet. Wanted to wait on that. Thanks!

My local Walmart remodeled this summer and now has a decent card section between the last self-checkout and the first human checkout. Only been there about a month. Before that, one facing of packs and a bunch of pokemon by the liquor checkout.
Sorry about your snow Darrell. I can't imagine snow in mid-October.
Thanks for the checklists Dan. I'll add my base cards now, and (maybe) even scan some in!
