The news continued to get worse for Topps online sales with the print run of the set based off of the failed Fyre Festival concert. Last night Topps revealed the print run for Garbage Pail Kids Lord of the Flyes online set. As with sales of they daily online cards, this set offered for three days last week also set records for low sales. The GPK cards ended up the lowest sellers, with card #3a/b doing only 109 copies, a new low for GPK sales. The Wacky’s didn’t fare much better ending in the 120’s.
