You obviously decide what should be in your collection and what shouldn't. I look at non-GU patches as design elements like foil stamping and die-cutting and such. In some cases they are really well done and add a lot to the look of a card. In others, like Lettermen, it's much less compelling, but I felt the need to add them to my collection.

I really like this attitude. It's a nice way at looking at them.

The only difference that bothers me though is that there are REAL gu letter patches, which is why it's hard for me to get over the fact that they're manufactured. There's no REAL version of die-cuts or refractors that are being imitated. They are their OWN design element, versus being an imitation or copy.

Regardless, if it were just auto'd versions of their last names, then I may be more into them. But the fact that they have first and last names (plus team names no?) makes it just too much.

I do like the real ones though.
