They were doing the same thing with Correa as they did with Chris Bryant. Putting his 2015 cards into 2016 products
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.
I'm no insider but I highly doubt that Topps gave any employees these, or any other similar, cards. Usually company giveaways are noticeably different from the "base" sets...

The back of those is noticeably different, I haven't seen the backs of the Correas...
But those Bryants, and the UD giveaways, are easy to spot as different.

What's the point of starting a thread here? We have the Blowout Detective Agency on the case. The only opinion I trust more than them is Inspector Gadget
Not a single comment on the Carlos Correa Topps Chrome Red Refractor auto scandal?!
It's pretty frightening how little many people actually care about the hobby that they are involved in. The "whatever" generation in full affect.
It's not that people on FCB doesn't care about the 'scandal'. FCB users are more focused on actually enjoying the hobby through their PC's, buying secondary market and trading. Just my personal observation, but most FCB users seemed to have taken the dollar first aspect out their collecting.
This whole 'scandal' reminds me of when my 5yr old doesn't get the toy he wanted in his happy meal.

I'm sure Topps will come clean on this, no matter what.
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.
We all know there is no such thing as multiple backdoored 1/1's......
