      The guy at GPS pulls guys and can't even pronounce their names properly. Like guys who have played all year on their team. Like if you watch hockey, you know how to pronounce their names. You can see right through it. Feels like a hype man for upper deck and a bit of a vulture at this point. Very disingenuous. Zeree knows and has a real passion for this stuff. Real deal.

In terms of passion for the hobby I have been collecting since a kid... I can understand everyone has their own opinions but my passion for the hobby has and always will be there. Opening packs and boxes should be about the entertainment and experience first. I try to put out a positive light on products as much as possible while at the same time stating the potential downside at these price points. ​

    I was really impressed with the names you hit. This is probably just a function of how narrow all the endless sub-checklists are. But, unless group breakers exhaust supply, you’d have to think sticker prices will come down in the near-term. Even I couldn’t rationalize it, and I love the design.
