2012 Topps is live???

Well, according to this guy, 2012 Topps is live! However, I do not believe this is true. I also don't believe that Ebay should allow sellers to sell this type of item:

2012 Topps Baseball Auto/Relic/Coin/Patch/Dual/Cut/Pin Hot Pack - IN HAND!


I once read an article from Beckett, who tried to defend these types of auctions, that dealers who bust several boxes will know that after opening 23 packs and not getting a hit out of a 24 pack box that the last pack is guaranteed to contain a hit. This isn't always true. There have been several factory sealed boxes I have opened over the years that did not contain a hit.

EBay needs to ban these types of auctions in which most sellers already know what is inside these types of packs. Don't you think?

Topps Complete Sell Sheet / Photo Collection - HELP ME!

I need your help in achieving a goal I set for myself. My goal is to have either a sell sheet or a Topps photo from every year Topps has made baseball cards. Yes, it would be awesome to have a Topps baseball sell sheet from 1952 to present but I know that is impossible. I have made two prior posts on this board asking for sell sheets and photos and now this post will be where I will compile what I have found so far, and hope that you can help me fill in the blanks!! My wish is to have a 8 1/2 by 11 page (either sell sheet or a Topps photo) for each year from 1952- 2011. If you see the word "COMPLETE" below, that means I am perfectly happy with what I have pictured and there is no need to upgrade to something better. If you don't see that word, then that means I am still looking for something better. I think this would look good to put in each one of my Topps binders. Can you help? Here is what I have so far:
