I've seen blue and brown/red set boxes priced differently on ebay (red/brown is generally higher) - is there a reason for the difference in price? Are the sets different?

I think one is retail (blue) the other hobby (red/brown). For 2004 I don't think they had any differences. In more recent years there have been some picture variants between retail and hobby versions. It drives me insane them doing that on top of all the other parallels they put out. This modern overproduction of parallels and short prints and super short prints is no better than the 1980s to 90s overproduced "junk wax" years.

I believe I've seen some factory sets also advertised as HTA (Home Team Advantage). Usually all the different box styles for the modern stuff come with a few different insert cards, so sometimes the retail set may end up costing more than the hobby set if there's a better player on the insert card in the retail box.
And I definitely agree with ya captkirk, most of the numbered SP stuff being produced today isn't going to hold any value because they've flooded the market with them.

Where is the like button? I don't understand the need (besides money) for all these different versions of the same card. Just using Aaron Judge who has been in th eMajors for a year and a half, but already there are over 2400 different cards of him.

I'm just posting because I read the post title as "What does the colour of the sex bot mean?"
