It was pretty phased out by then though.<br /><br />That was my first clue that it was fake, although Beckett probably didn't consider that. They probably saw a ridiculous patch on a #/75 card and said "not so fast my friend."Grand Cardshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02658028013441039898noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6630856868133260633.post-46911268947732641772011-09-07T00:36:26.846-04:002011-09-07T00:36:26.846-04:002004 Fleer E-X had two patch cards a box I believe...2004 Fleer E-X had two patch cards a box I believe so they aren't incredibly rare.

One is price - the guy wants $250 and my biggest single Seneca card buy to date was $32, and that's including 3 plates, 1 /5, and 2 /10's. <br /><br />The other issue? It's an Adidas Laundry tag. From 2003 Sage. I was skeptical. Asked on blowout and found that a) I'm right to think laundry tags in 2003 Sage are weird/not right and b) that Seneca's college jerseys were made by Russell Athletics, not Adidas. Yet the Ebay seller still cries pack pulled when I messaged him. So...is Sage on crack and putting in wrong patches? Or is it fake? The world may never know...SpastikMoosshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13374559066158419166noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6630856868133260633.post-28398622102652337502011-09-06T22:49:49.779-04:002011-09-06T22:49:49.779-04:00another question to ask a tiger's fan... was t...another question to ask a tiger's fan... was that particular patch in use by Detroit before 2004?

It's a 2004 card. Patch cards like that were beyond rare back then. And to see it, without an auto, on a card numbered to /75 puts out warning bells to me.<br /><br />but like I said... peabrain... limited knowledge...<br /><br />tell your friend to just enjoy it for what it is... a very sweet looking card.Captain Canuckhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02189853561737282234noreply@blogger.com
