How does this card make it into a Best of anything product?

I was watching a few youtube breaks from Cards Infinity and saw a 2 box break of Best of Baseball.... Not sure if this card should even be in the product in raw form ( $35 ).... let alone a BGS 8.5 with 8 Auto. I know you win some, you lose some and not every box can have a monster... but for a hand packed product??

BG- Constructive criticism here, as a sketch card collector, I would not insert Tempy Moore sketches into any more of your products. Kevin John and Pangan do great work, and the Moores just look very amateurish. There are some phenomenal sketch card artists out there would do some amazing stuff for you, and it would appeal to a whole new market as some of these artists have huge followings, look up Charles Hall, Katie Cook, and Sean Spence just to name a few.

I echo this; at first I thought they were blank cards which the seller created sketches.

I guess its sad that a griffey auto only gets that much now. I saw a guy break a few cases of that one case had two griffey autos and a cano. the next case has a sick mantle high grade. Its a gamble but there are some really nice pieces coming out of those cases. I saw plenty at the nats.

Wow what a joke, but did we really expect more? At least with the other best of's there was 1 box in the case that netted more than the price of the box. This new product isnt even close. I seen some real stinker cases with some "sketchy" sketch cards, you would think someone at lef would look at the sketches and reject them.

But hey who cares they sold out...

I have a feeling my daughter could draw better sketches. she does good looking portraits already at 16 years old and is doing visual design in high school. The ones Ive seen so far look like they were drawn by someone much younger...

Yeah, this is what happens when there's no competition.


Oh wait, as this all points out, competition doesn't matter does it... as sellers will buy *anything* they think they can flip!

So it can get put into the next 'Best of' product?

Wouldn't this be considered a conflict of interest? Buy the horrible cards back from this years breaks to re-insert them again in the next product, which will undoubtely sell for far more than $40 a box. Must be a good business you have going there.

This is probably the most egregious card I've seen in BOB (taken from a break from another forum):

Look at the bottom right corner area...disgusting.

WOW :confused:
At some point we have all made fun of drunky McWilliams and his crappy products over the last few years

But this is a huge kick in the junk.......
I'd like to meet the person who saw this card & thought "wow this would be a good hit for our Best of Baseball product"

Hey ...lay off the alcohol/drugs when buying cards for your product :(
