I agree with you. It's to bad McCutchen doesn't have an auto in this product. Also, I didn't pull a Clemente, Hamilton, Trout or Harper who I collect

RE: 2 boxes of 5 Star
I'm amazed at the awful condition of the cards that continue to come out of this product. Absolutely no excuse on Topps's part. I feel bad for those who spent a lot of money for such a poor quality product.
I guess when you have a monopoly you can put out what ever crap you want to without regards to quality.
I long for the days when there was competition between card companies. It forced them to be more creative with their designs as well as have an eye on quality. Maybe some day Topps will again be forced to compete with other companies and improve their product.
Just my 2 cents worth.

I sure hope so. To bad Upperdeck can't get their $hit together, I miss Ultimate Collection, Exquisite, and SP Authentic.
