Do you really think they care if you can see the cards as long as they sell ....They usually sell out very quick anyway ....

I am sure TLA don’t but some of the collectors seem too!!
Personally I am not phased, it is an individual thing and is really not much different (easier though) to buying 6 packs of Elite until you hit then moving into the next box.
I suppose it really comes down to ones intentions. If it is to make money (as a collector) than that is not the best look but if it is for your PC or you help others out than not a big issue IMO.
It is probably not that they don
t care its probably more something that is not a high priority as they seem to sell out no matter how they are packaged ....How do collectors know that the numbered startoons have been taken, because they look for the packets them self so really there is not a great difference only someone else has got there first .....

I suppose the bigger issue is that one collector might hit all newsagents in an area and take all starters with a numbered startoon. As I said, for me personally it is not a big concern, to each their own. If I go to a newsagent and buy a starter and I can clearly see a numbered version as opposed to a variant I would absolutely grab the numbered. As we discussed, frosted packaging would certainly alleviate the issue.

what a scam, parallel after parallel after parallel after parallel, AFTER PARALLEL, when are they going to pay a photographer.
How’s it a scam?
Look at other sports cards in the larger markets and it’s all about parallels. It is the marketing trend, we (Australia) usually follow in the footprints of our larger counter parts, it’s just the way the world works
If you don’t like the product, don’t buy it. There is nothing holding you, I or anyone else down to buy it. Why do you constantly have a disdain for anything TLA does May I ask??

I guess I am so old school, where I like to get value for money, I HATE PARALLELS.
What is so hard about pushing a few buttons and changing the color buttons, not much!!!!.
I suppose if you want to buy the same picture 5 times then that is up to you.
I myself, are not buying them.

Looks Kenny, everyone to there own, if i was colle ting 1 player, 1 team, i would probably go that way, but 5 of each player for 16 teams, it is way too much for meTo put it into perspective
And that's not complete
