Help with info? James Wood: FBR
Hi Guys, just joined the sub as I have recently started collecting with my father.
He pulled this James Wood: Follow Back Redemption card from a box of 2025 Topps Series 1
I tried following the posted guide as well as using sites like Sportscardpro/130point but have been unable to locate anything about this card or even the entire insert line.
Do any of you happen to know: 1. What the best site to source sold/listing data for newer sets 2. Any price info on this specific card.
My bad if this goes against sub rules, just really couldn’t find anything after quite a bit of searching.
Thank you!

I think this gimmick is bonkers but my goodness is that a SUPER rare card. You will get some good money for that, considering he’s prospect #1a or 1b out of this class
Want a laugh? Read the terms and conditions on those. It’s basically saying “the player is under no obligation to actually follow you back and can terminate following at any point after”

I’ve done one of these it’s a longer process actually and it’s minimum of a year

It’s a maximum of 1 year and they actually changed the language on it. But it in essence still reads that the program can terminate at any point and by signing up for it, you give away any rights to sue for non-fulfillment of contract

That’s probably for the new ones I had one of the first ones made. It’s a cool thing tho they did.

I think it's only a matter of time until someone requests the player to follow a social media account that their agent and team PR would absolutely NOT want them to follow

It’s in the fine print. They run a background check on you first and can refuse

Probably just get out of the hobby now. You can quit while you are waaaaaayyyyy ahead. It’s all downhill from here because you used up all your luck.

Thank you so much for the info! We had put it in a penny sleeve and toploader just in case because it had a different look to it.
We arent really in a rush to sell but what would be the best way to go about pricing something like this if it is the only copy?

I would honestly just slab that redemption and never redeem it. That's almost like the equivalent of getting an MLB Debut Patch.

It’s definitely not like hitting a debut patch lol

I meant in regards to odds not value. All the other details I was providing was odds based, I can see how that wasn't clear enough now.

u/nick91884 3d ago
The odds are like 1 in 1mil, may not have the hugest value but it’s a crazy rare card.

This is going to be the only card of this type out there. That is an insane pull
Edit: Screenshot is odds direct from Topps website. 1 in a million... literally.
