Serial # matching player number or 1/1s?

Which one do you prefer?

1/1 cards or cards with serial # the same as the players jersey #?

I know 1/1s are great but I think the serial #s matching the player number are cooler.

I prefer 1/1's, just because they are the only version of the exact card. I don't see a big deal of the player jersey #'s, but I know some people love them.

1/1's by far...I like Jersey # cards but to me there is something special about 1/1's.

I love cards #'d to match the player's jersey number (or college jersey number for SOME players)....
but a 1/1 is way cooler IMO, since it is so rare

I've always wanted a 1/1 of a player whose jersey was #1
i saw a Warren Moon a few years back and bid on it, even though I don't collect him.

It really depends what 1/1, many 1/1s have counterparts that are the exact same card with the exception of the serial number.

But yeah for something like a printing plate 1/1, I could see how those are better.

jersey numbers of high print runs are scarcer.

1/1 now days are kinda like 1/20 with all the variations.

I would never give a premium for a card numbered to a player's jersey number. I will grab it for the same price I'd pay for any of them, but won't cave to considering it the evil eBay 1/1.

one of my friends pulled a 1/1 Derrick Rose patch auto rc from ud black lol doesnt get much better than that ( his jersey # is 1 for those that dont know)
