Oh yeah, we know there's been some doozies made by all the companies.

Post some up.

Here's two

Several years ago, in both baseball and football topps reprinted many modern day rookie cards which can easily pass for the originals.

About twenty years ago, pinnacle came out with 8x10 cards which contained a small card inside.

That's not the worst part as if the large card was an insert, there's no guarantee the inside card would be an insert.

The 2016 Stadium Club buybacks (non-autographed versions) had no foil stamping to indicate they were buybacks.

The Roger Clemens autographs in 1992 Fleer had nothing on them indicating that they were certified autographs.

Mine would have to be the Upper Deck video cards. seems like some don't work anymore plus they used college football video footage. With a proper pro sports league license and current technology, I think they could be done better today by a manufacturer.

Any card that doesn't actually picture the player featured (SP Signature Edition for example).

Yes totally. An auto cut up to be put inside a cut auto is the worst. UD does it too. I've seen an instance where they cut up a Pinnacle Joe D auto and it didn't even fit the full cut auto frame. So hokey.

Can we include the Pinnacle Inside "soup can packs"? Thought those were annoying as hell. Didn't mind the preferred tin as much for some reason.
