Cards: I like/ I hate

[mjbowman]

If I won the lottery I would look to get a case of 97 legends Real autos on full color cards and nlf logos
I hate autos that are initials. Many players who have achived much more than many of the rookies still sign their name. Do you want some examples Jim Brown Johnny U Ray Nitske Len Dawson Terry Bradshaw, Bart Starr Roger Staubach. Joe Namath

I love the classic Auto's, and I love the classic GU.

I hate the fact that there are just so many cards...parralels of all sorts, all different #'d. And why does topps need so many brands? Turkey red, total, regular topps, hobby topps, bazooka, etc...

As a team collector, it makes it real hard to see an end, or a goal. I think (the last time I checked) there were around 24000 different Broncos cards, and I have 2600...and it seems like its impossible to get all 24k...

I'm a huge buyback auto fan. Not buybacks from just a few years ago, but the buyback autos from the 80s and earlier. I'm a big fan of the Topps Originals Signature product.

I love autographs of no name players that are here one day and gone the next day. You see I collect Detroit Tiger autographs and most of thier players in recent history fit into that category.

I hate high end cards depicting Hall of Fame members in the uniform of a team they played on for one year.

I like: topps heritage, bowman heritage, basically anything using historical designs. I also like chrome/shiny cards (topps chrome, bowman chrome, topps pristine).

I dislike: Useless paralells such as press proofs. The design is the same, just with a colored logo or something of that sort. Other than that overproduced GU, especially donruss products.

Likes: 2005 Topps Football's design, Turkey Red too. Career stats on the back of the card. UD Legends

Dislikes: Press plates. Ugly cards.

[BravesFan4Life]

Likes: Old School Designs, GOTG autos any sport, the Legends series any sport, Topps Chrome Refractors

Dislikes: Mass amount of stupid parallels, printing plates, diluted products shoved out by UD

[Bassy91]

I love unique logo patches and lower known rookie auto's.


I hate auto/gu cards that are sweet but numbered out of 1500... thats ridiculous.

I like;

patch cards that you can tell where the patch came from (number, name, shoulder patch, etc.)

I hate;

that card companies do not tell you what piece the patch is from.

Like: Topps Chrome. Nice cards; great bang for the buck. A few packs costs only about $15 and you're bound to pull at least one refractor or rookie.

Hate: Millions of rookie cards of no-name players each year now. Back in 1993-94, a no-name basketball rookie like Darnell Mee had about five cheap rookie cards. Now you can get about 30 Fran Vazquez rookie cards, many low serial #ed and costing a pretty penny this season. I can see this for maybe a couple of sets, but almost all the products make rookies of these guys now.
