Yea, i don't like that one bit

Meh, it's a $1.99 pack...

...as I've said before, at least Topps hasn't done it in their high-end products yet, unlike UD (referring to the manufactured patches).

The Uggla and the last one do say Game Worn Jersey on the front.

The Hat logos are manu's, and they said that to begin with in the sales info, I believe.

The UD manufactured patches could not have been confused with jersey patches. That's the difference. Calling something a "hat logo" on the front is far shittier in my opinion than having something like this:

It is really sad...I wonder how many manufactured patches they can buy for every 1 GU jersey they can pass on???

i think the manufactured patches are all junk.. but dont see an issue with the game used jerseys as long as they all come out with patches on them. If they mixed them up with plain jerseys and patches, then i would have an issue.

I don't get the manufactured patches at all. Why bother? Just don't have a Hat Logo insert set in the first place, everyone wins.

Rickey Henderson collectors are just happy to see all these new Rickeys! I think he has 4 different hat patches coming out... think of it from our perspective. We don't get any new Rickey cards these days, and what little comes out seems to be base cards. So these new patch cards are kind of exciting for us!

It will be interesting to see sellers trying to pass these off as real GU patches 10 years down the road, if they really don't mention commemorative patch somewhere on them...

ONLY 4 ?...THEY SHOULD BE ABLE TO MAKE WHAT LIKE 15 DIFFRENT TEAM PATCHES OF HIS

I don't think anyone can deny that this hurts the authentic legit game worn patch/logo card market. I mean, how can you really be sure you've got anything game used anymore? The perception is gone....

Here's the Utley one.


at least the seller says it's manufactured. I'll admit I almost sharted when I first saw it. Once I saw /99 I was like....ah, ok. IF that was a real hat piece that'd be sicker than a logoman imo.

I'll buy one eventually for my site, but when they go for 5 bucks

 

[A_Pharis]

That Utley is at $34... for a manufactured patch....
