If there is only one company allowed to sell official baseball cards, do you really think they are paying a lot for "relics"? It is not like there are many bidding wars beyond including private collectors. If nobody wants it, how carefully do you check it? Whose cards are we going to buy instead?
It is pretty scary that so many people do not trust our only current source of baseball cardboard.

*All* manufacturers over the past decade or so have had issues with relics...every one. Not that any of this matters at all given how people fake the relics in game used cards anyway, especially patches.
If someone wants a relic they're better off buying full memorabilia and not buying cards to begin with.
