What's the deal with NON game used cards in TTT?

[mlbfan10]

I've read on a few backs of TTT cards that they are not used from any particular season, event, or game. Why would I want to buy a sick patch card that wasn't even used by the player?

Here is an example and why I made the thread.

the 1/1 MLB Logo Patches those are not game worn either

It says game used, just because they didnt give the exact game doesnt mean they aren't real. I mean sure Ive never seen patches like that of him, but still. Just my opinion.

I believe Topps makes that disclaimer on all relic cards.

They're not saying that it wasn't used by the player; rather, they're saying it was, but they make no representation as to which specific season, event or game it was used or worn in.

You dig?

That's exactly my understanding as well. I think we can thank Topps' lawyers for the legalese.

That's my take on the wording as well.

Thanks guys! Makes more sense now, I'm just glad that I can buy them now. I was thinking they just bought a jersey (like fans buy) and slabbed some nice looking patches on a card and cutting their overall cost.

Yeah, Topps make no claims to anything on the relics for TTT. very smart, atleast they are honest.

To me that doesn't read "Wasn't used in a game". It reads "we don't know WHICH game it was used in".

They are All Star Weekend Game Worn Patches is why they have not been seen before.

Asked Topps Official about the 1/1 Logos last year, and was told they are worn by the players sometime during the weekend, but not at the game usually, just like the all star patches.
