According to Beckett Annual, the Ultra Rare were 1:24 retail/Target and 1:36 Walmart. There are a few on eBay right now including a couple Pujols for under $10. So they don't seem that rare.

I laughed at the description of those. When I was PC'ing Lincecum I came across them frequently and they are hardly 'ultra rare'. What's more rare: 'ultra rare' or 'super rare'?

I think there might even be one rarer than the 'ultra rare' but who cares, wouldn't you like to see UD producing MLB cards again?

It's like the term "short print", which I have seen defined as being a card that has a print run of 1/4 - 1/3 lower than the standard print run. So if the original print run was 50,000, then you could, technically, have a "short print" card that has 40,000 copies made. They intentionally use relative terms

To heck with the "Super Rare" and the "Ultra Rare". I'd like mine "Well Done".
