Anyone else hate this insert set as much as i do? I am not sure if the card i have is the only one with a price listed on here but the prices on these cards are misleading. Anyone buying these cards on ebay is doing so under the impression that it is actually an autographed card, when in fact it is not. I am still seeing bids on these cards somehow despite most of the community i interact with calling them out right away. My Aaron Judge card is not worth the $30 it sold for and its not an auto.

It looks like some people are catching on to that based on recent sales. Some of the ones listed for sale are also mentioning the facsimile signature too but it's still a tricky situation if you don't know what you are bidding on. The Judge card is also a jumbo patch so that has something to do with sold prices. I entered some more info on the cards that were showing a higher value so things should look a little more realistic.

They're throwaway inserts, and I'm not a fan, but it's probably the fault of the buyers for not paying attention. The back of the card says it's not a real auto. I saw a card that sold for $179 recently and the details of the listing said it wasn't real also.
The prices on this site aren't accurate for most cardsthough, so you shouldn't rely on them.

yes, i know the prices on here arent accurate i just see it in my list of top priced cards and scratched my head. I only traded for the card to check it off the list. I would love to throw it away, lol

I hate it because of the head-fake of seeing a 1/1 Trout auto in a pack and then find out it's a crappy reprint.

Yes, I hate them as much as you do. I got an Aaron Judge "Through the Years" card in a pack, and it took me a few moments and a couple of good, hard looks before I realized it wasn't a real auto. That's kind of crummy of Topps to do.

I love to trade! Check the top couple of paragraphs of my profile to see my general trading desires. If you're uncertain if I’ll take a certain trade, message me and we can figure out something. |

I understand the frustration with Topps inserts, but AT LEAST they do say on the back that it's a reprint of the autographed card. I've seen more unscrupulous activity than that on other cards.

You mean you don't love a card of a card? The insert sets in general were pretty bad this season. Most were just cards in previous Topps designs. There is already Heritage and Archives for that.
