Things about the hobby that drive you crazy
I felt like opening a little rant thread. Here are a couple things about our hobby that drive me crazy.
1) Dual and triple autos where one is a HOFer and the other(s) is a rookie that doesn't pan out.
2) The amount of jersey cards
3) Insane amount of parallels
4) Redemption cards
5) Retail
Feel free to join in but be civil.

RE: Things about the hobby that drive you crazy
Rant threads and people thinking they are entitled to a card because they collect that player/set.

1999 Upper Deck Strike Force Quantum /100
2000 Score Complete Players Green/ Blue
2000 Leaf Piece of the Game Preview 4th Down Isaac Bruce

Good one
Mine are
1.To many jersey cards that are one color and worth next to nothing
2.To many products,would be a lot better with about 50-60% of the products out now
3.Not having money and all the good cards of your main PC coming up on the bay at the same time.LoL
4.Not having money and having a cardboard crack habit...........What there ain't no LoL this S be serious
Thanks Ironman71635

Thats not what I meant by that.... a guy had a leshoure I needed and one of the bidders had 100% bidding history with that seller and well over 100 transactions! I never thought I was entitled to anything
