Thanks for these details @Matt26 looks like a good solid release.
With signatures changed to 1 per 2 boxes for this release, did Neil indicate if the signature cards would be in the boxes (like last release) or via redemption?
It good to see the distributors getting all the good patches then on selling them for a nice sum
I sent Neil from tap n play an email regarding this practice. He ensures me there are no favorites and the better patches are issued to the earlier redemptions received.
The RU release may look similar to last years but the A-League cards IMO have taken a big step forward.
Umm there's clear evidence of this! Here's an example, the Archie Thompson jersey signature card, who ended up with all the Victory crest patches? The two main distributors (I believe you tried to buy the two off of them?). I did ask them about why they always received the better patches then regular collectors, his response: "I deserve it as I spend a lot of money on Neil's products'. Sums it up really. Many members on this site have mentioned this too so I'm not alone. Look at the Lyon patch cards, ebay too and you will see the better patches were given and on sold by the distributors.
1) There is only 1 distributor for Tap N Play products.
2) Quotation marks are supposed to indicate that you are taking a direct quote from somebody. I know I had the top half of the Victory Crest for a short time and certainly didn't say what you've quoted above. Kindly leave the quotation marks for their actual purpose.
