Very disappointed in my eBay purchase....
Nope - not a rant on a seller (quite wonderful), not a rant on the price (extremely cheap)...
Then what's the rant? It's how UD has destroyed the "Ultimate" brand.
What you don't see (and maybe y'all knew already and they're why these sell so low) is that the photography is horrible. It's blurred, out of focus, etc...

This "sub brand" was one of my favorites. But the picture on this card sucks. I'm (unfortunately) waiting on a Jarvis Jones too. I'm assuming the quality will be just as bad.
End rant.

Have you seen the autographed versions of the cards?
I saw the Barkley card earlier and I wasn't impressed at all

Oh it's not that bad, Ryan... What'd you expect? UD is becoming cheaper and cheaper with their photographs and products. Rather than pay someone with a high res Canon or Minolta, they can now only afford pics taken from iPhones or SIII's.

I've gone basically completely "mobile". My fault I assumed the cards would be quality. I see blur on my mobile device and assume its my device, not a "Ultimate" RC photography issue.
I guess I put too much faith in a manufacturer to have a picture in focus on their card!

They lost their NFL license...
I stopped buying their stuff once that happened. Then they put NFL jerseys in their college stuff. THAT really pissed me off.
