      i bought a 400 dollar box of 2023 leaf metal (5 autos of 2023 rookies or prospects) and one of them was a redemption card...well after they took my 400 dollars and lied about what was inside the box then couldnt send the redemption card they ACTUALLY sent me a no name auto from 2021 class...how is that in any way showing the customer any kind of respect you speak of in this video?

For a guy (me) who once owned a Sports Card shop back in the 90's and traveled the country doing card shows, I would never have thought some of these great products came out of a small building like that.

Also when the president said they don’t want to release new sets one after the other to give the collector a rest period on their credit cards/ finances.

    I love the “Clear” acetate and patch/auto cards.

    My favorite part of the tour is when you are holding the 1 of 1's in your hands before they were a true finished product. That was super cool. Awesome video man thanks.
