the card companies will not quit till they suck the value and money out of all our pockets as much as possible this new retro set is total BS

Yeah, I mean, can't blame them for trying (LOL), but the reason those old school PMGs are so valuable is they're so old and hard to find/pull ... Back in the day, an insert seeded 1:288 packs — not sure about the PMGs, I just remember that insert ratio in a lot of 1990s products — essentially means one per case, and who knows how many full cases of those kinds of products still exist?

I think they're so hot because people are trying to recapture the old magic ... but then they realize LeBron is still wearing his SVSM jersey from like 10 years ago, the card is numbered to 150, and it isn't a "real" PMG ...
