WHY don't people like Leaf, Press Pass, etc?

Leaf and Press Pass etc and other brands come out with blasters with 2 autos in them, while the main companies don't gaurantee anything, yet people don't respect the autos of these products? Why? I mean it is the same player signing the card. Shouldn't these autos be worth just as much? Also Leaf really scored this year having Lillard rookie of year.

Alot of people want players in there pro uniforms, hence the disrespect and different pricing. Myself, doesn't matter, same player, same auto. Not into auto's though. I always liked the Leaf brand, but from what i saw the airbrushing is just annoying to me.

Since I am really into college I collect only former KU alumni and college sets. Leaf this year had some great Tyshawn Taylor cards!

I love the draft pic sets leaf, press pass, ud, etc and love being able to get rookies and auto'd cards at a fraction of the price.

If you have to spend $100 to get an autograph but in another set it takes $1000 to get an autograph it would likely make sense that the autograph that takes the $1000 to pull from a pack would be "worth more". The issue though with the companies you are talking about is that they don't have the players in an NBA uniform. More people would prefer a Jordan autograph with him in a Bulls uniform to him in a golf shirt so the value is higher on the Bulls one for example.
