Wanted a Nick Chubb Browns retro jersey. $170 on the NFL team shot website. Went to a Chinese knockoff site, I could’ve bought 7 different jerseys for $170. The price difference is just insane. How can they justify pricing a jersey at $170? Do people actually buy it?
And Football, Bryce and Stroud signed with Topps, and get full licensing in a couple of years. They’re getting a full monopoly it’s ridiculous.
Although Panini also deserved a kick in the ass for how garbage they’ve been all around lately when it comes to releasing sets on time, getting out redemptions etc.
For sure, Panini’s quality went to shit in recent years. They just shouldn’t have exclusive licensing for sports cards. Removes any competition and motivation to provide a quality product and innovate
