Triple Nightmare

Did you think we were done looking for Franken-cards here yet? Ohhhh no. I have spare time.

Why on Earth would you do this to a card that could have been so nice? I know they need to use stickers but really? Get it together, Topps.

$200 bucks a box or whatever it is and half the cards are redemptions and the rest are either piece meal patch cards that look shoddy or franken-stickers.

Game Used... Underwear?

I know there have been jokes about what part of the pants they choose to cut and put into game used pants cards, but this is a little goofy.

It seems as though someone took the time to custom make a custom card of Jay Bruce using his underwear... at least I am assume they are his underwear. Or he could be cutting up Hanes tighty whiteys and gluing them onto cards.

Maybe you are a Phillies fan and would prefer Ryan Howard's drawers.

Or.... Joe Mauer's drawers...

I guess everyone in baseball is a briefs kinda guy.

Can someone explain these to me?

When I do searches on eBay that involve jersey cards, I usually end up getting cards that manufactured. They aren't cards that you get from Upper Deck or Topps.

Here's a Derek Jeter jersey cardI don't understand.

National Sportscard Authenticators created the card, included a game-used jersey, threw it in slab and viola.

Is there a market for these cards? Because at the price they are charging, I can two, maybe even three Jeter jersey cards from Topps or Upper Deck. Then again, these days how do we even know those are real?
