I know this was directed to RGM but like I said earlier the bubbling/fading autos aren't new many of the new Panini Prime cards have the same "bubbling" issue as well because of the glossy surface. ITG isn't the only company having this issue and won't be the last either.

Well I was the first person who mentioned this Prime autograph bubbling issue, so I know it.

These are the autos I busted, does anyone have an issue with them? I personally don't.........................

Mayyyyyybe the Langway and Odelein could be better, they DO look better in person than from the scan tho.

So. This is the enchilada. The pens used for the autos fudged up in some (a few?) cases. But the product is out there and most of it's been busted and short of some sort of recall program, what can be done?? And I'm thinking the logistics of said program would be........complicated at best.

Also, in the great big scheme of things, this isn't a super-premium product, each card in the pack averages out to about 10 bucks, not $100 like The Cup. I understand it ain't "cheap" either, it's certainly the most money I've ever spent on new product, I'm not trying to denigrate anyone or anything. But it's not the end of the world, is it??

At least they passed through qa/qc as real, unlike upper decks high end product The Cup with fake DSP autos

You can't rewrite the truth but you can always pull the Upper Deck card on the table?

I have a number of PMs about this issue and I would have responded in this thread but when I read Darren's post:

"The bubbling autos are horrid and at this point in time there's no acceptable reason/excuse for it."

I felt that anything I posted would be met with nasty comments.

Instead I have made myself available to answer any questions collectors might have on this subject and any other In The Game subject you might have.

I am sure that you will receive notification of the question and answer session, I believe it will be tomorrow night.

Further to Dr. Price's comment above, there will indeed be a live chat session held tomorrow evening. Please feel free to join us in the chat room. More information in the top sticky thread in this forum.
