Yep mid 80s to mid 90s is known as the junk wax era cuz they printed so many cards and so many SHIT cards. You can have a hit once in a while with certain rookie cards but mostly it’s all useless.

- Mr. Tomlinson's feud started after members of the now-defunct Reddit site r/opieandanthony got his Twitter account suspended, causing him to threaten some bored trolls who never heard of him with a libel lawsuit. The trolls responded predictably.
- Mr. Tomlinson has been instructed many times by friends, family, police, and attorneys to stop engaging with his trolls, and that continuing to provoke them will cause him to be trolled even more. Mr. Tomlinson wilfully ignores this advice.
- He would eventually file a defamation suit against 60 anonymous people which was dismissed with Mr. Tomlinson being ordered to pay $34,762.25 for opposing parties' attorney fees.
- He ended up paying $83,736.99 due to his unsuccessful attempts to dodge the court-ordered judgement, for which he faced jail time and contempt charges.
- He also filed 2 frivolous restraining orders against people who had engaged in First Amendment-protected behavior (one for texting him and another for attending his contempt of court hearing), both of which were dismissed.
- Early on in the lawsuit, Mr. Tomlinson vandalized his own motorcycle and submitted a false police report blaming the people he was suing.
- He accidentally sent surveillance video of the alleged vandal to a troll. The individual in the video is very obviously Patrick S. Tomlinson.
- Mr. Tomlinson has never submitted this video footage during any of his many media tours, and desperately tries to scrub it from the internet.
- Mr. Tomlinson claims that the surveillance video was initiated by his "motion-activated" camera, which only collects "30 seconds at a time", despite the video being 32 seconds long and beginning several seconds before the "vandal" enters into the frame.
- On 13 April 2023, the individual responsible for calling the fake emergences (SWATs) to Mr. Tomlinson's house, a SWAT-for-hire dealer named "Torswats", revealed that Mr. Tomlinson ordered the SWATs to his own house because he wanted to get in the news and sue the MPD for money.
- Torswats would repeat these allegations in private chats which were not intended for public view.
- Mr. Tomlinson has gone on multiple news tours since the SWATtings started in order to promote his victimhood brand, utilizing the services of Lenora Claire.
- He also recently sued the MPD for money.
WWAW Sports Cards?

I went down a rabbit hole the other day on YouTube with breakers who scam their customers. It’s crazy. I bought into a few breaks when I got back into the hobby just to check it out but it’s really a huge waste of $$$
It's like playing the lotto except worse odds.
Faggots playing a boring game printed on cardboard is not a hobby, the cards are completely worthless and you are a queer for idolizing strong young men playing ball.
I found a 2001factory set at my parents recently and went to go find the Ichiro rookie and they were all bricked and I couldn’t get them apart without peeling and destroying them.

All in looking at prices on tuff stuff and Beckett. My Dennis ‘oil can’ Boyd card never really took off.
Fawkin sucks and it was a problem that Topps knew about. The sets were essentially made to keep sealed or atleast be sealed for a number of years. It's a fucking Shane because the Ichiro is a great RC to have the collection.
Yeah that was a bummer
I have an unopened giant box of cards from the year I was born. I looked up the price for the goof and it was $90 on eBay haha. I have like 4 or 5 full sets too. I guarantee you I spent triple what the one is worth just to put it together. The rest my uncle gave me so I can’t sell them but I also have no use for them. Probably have two thousand random ones from when I was young but I assume they’re mostly worthless.
What?
I believe Panini lost the contract they had with the major league players so they can only make cards of prospects (a-aaa ball abd college players). They haven't been able to use mlb logos for quite some time, but not being able to use mlb players is kind of a death blow. Panini had some really good card designs- especially with their Donruss product and Optic.
That’s really fucking goofy. I’ve never seen a sports card without the team’s logo too. I remember the Donruss cards from when I was younger.
That stinks. Most sets are sorted by teams too. That sucks for them. “New York” lol.
I'm a retard. Fanatics acquired Panini and Topps. So they will now have logos and players for all of their Topps and Panini products. Everyone expects customer service abd quality to turn to shit because there is now literally zero competition in the card hobby. There's some bunk shit put out their by other manufacturers, but that shit is starting to sit on retail shelves-- shit, stuff you couldn't find 3 years ago (resellers waiting for multiple days outside Walmart/Target) is now available on the shelves or online with zero issues.
I expect Topps to have Panini quality now, not the other way around.
I can’t stand how Fanatics does their COAs for hockey pucks. Beckett is far superior.
Grading has ruined every hobby - cards, comics, and in recent years, toys. It's only done to propagate a sense of elitism among collectors, and it's been proven many times how faulty and selective the grading system is. It's bullshit.
I love how you can mail a card in to get it graded. Like it might not get messed up in the mail.
I don't trust that shit at all lol. Plus I am a tactile person. I might occasionally want to hold the comic, card or toy. Can't do it if it's permanently encased in a plastic coffin.
