So Topps gave employees cards...what's the big deal?
And on top of that, who says the cards they receive and thus are now their property are not able to be sold if the employee chooses to do so?
I don't understand the big hoopla.

Here are 5 sets that immediately come to mind as a baseball collector, and this is only from the 90's
- '98 Donruss Crusade Samples and Executive Promos - Green, Purple, and Red versions
- '98 Pinnacle Bankruptcy sets, specifically:
- '98 Select base, inserts, and parallels
- '98 Pinnacle Certified base, subsets, and parallels
- Studio Executive Promos, specifically:
- '96 Hit Parade
- '97 Masterstrokes
- '97 Hard Hats
- '90 Donruss Aqueous Test
- '96 Leaf Preferred Steel Bronze Promos

It's pretty frightening how little many people actually care about the hobby that they are involved in. The "whatever" generation in full affect.

How would u like to buy a box hoping to pull the Correa red refractor auto #/5, but 2 have already been backdoored out?? It's not fair/right to people busting wax hoping to get that card. That's why its a big deal

I dont bust wax, maybe some packs from Andrew once in a while. 100 percent of my PC cards come from the secondary market. Does Topps suck sure they do. Is it unfair
yes it is.

I think we need to get facts straight. People read too much into things. When 2015 Topps was released the checklist was clear that Correa did not have autos in it. So if Topps got him to sign a few for employees, and those were not communicated to be included, what's the big deal. Anyone even expecting to hit a Correa base auto in 2015 Topps chrome was simply misguided in the first place.
Don't forget about the 1/1 Masterpiece cards that are also backdoored. Lot's of 1/1's have become more like 1/2's or worse. Still cool in my eyes and I want the Will Clark's if they ever surface, but backdoored 1/1 cards are also out there and desired by many, including me.
Great point, Nolan. '98 Sports Illustrated, '98 Topps Gold Label, '99 Ultimate Victory, '98 Ultra, '98 Flair Legacy....what other sets am I forgetting? And I agree - some of these ostensible 1/1s have unreleased/backdoor copies that I believe many collectors would pursue (of their PC guy/for their set) or are currently pursuing.
I think we are just over it and a bit cynical.

They were doing the same thing with Correa as they did with Chris Bryant. Putting his 2015 cards into 2016 products
