Why does Topps not have a website where you can look up what each patch should look like? At least for the low #ed Sterlings! It would be nice to see 4 of 10, go the website and see exactly what the card should look like! If Topps only cared?

If it indeed would be fake, I'd do what I normally do - I send a $1 best offer for his fake patch. I don't know if this one is fake or not though, so I won't.

Really hard to know on the Sterlings because they are #ed to 10, and alot of times have sick patches!

Bottom edge of the window is solidly dinged up. Patch is way too perfectly centered. I'd avoid.

Unfortunately, I do think all his patches are fake. I know for sure 100% that there were no other patches created for Markakis besides the Orioles team name and Markakis' last name on the 06 Sweet Beginnings set. Plus, there's no bird on an 2005 or 2006 jersey that I know of.

I do not know HOW he got the full bird under there, but I can only assume he somehow cut the card open, took the old patch out. and put the full bird under there. truly a shame to waste a patch card like that.

I wish entire game used bit would end. If you want a game used item. Buy a game used item, not some scrap on a piece of card. That who knows is legit or switched out. Not like they say who autnticated it or where it came from in the first the first place. You can buy legit game used stuff pretty cheap. Heck during MeiGray summer sale you can get game used Rangers jerseys for $50. On MLB.com you can game used ball authenticated starting at $25. Bats can be pretty cheap. Also if you know bats, 99% of players don't have retail models. So your pretty safe in buying those. Also, they distinguish game models from retail for the few that do have them. Like Louisville Sluggers underlines the 125 on ash one's and has a 7 engraved on the bottom handle on maples.

When did Banks retire, '73 or so? Did they ever have a patch like that with gold thread? Plus, what are the odds of the patch being perfectly centered like that? Too good to be true = is.

this bothers me. the auto is real. this is a hand-collated product or not machine cut. it is very possible this is real but unfortunately the seller has a history of faking. ugh the drama
