My personal PC player and one of the reasons I bought nine cases worth of phillies. Sweet 1/1 relic!

It's not supposed to be a patch, it's the jersey relic inception parallel 1/1, not the patch.

Just go for the 1 of 1 and hold up on opening the cases. You can sell them off and use the money to buy it.

Guessing thats the card he wanted.

I don't see any issue with it. It is as advertised. The auto isn't GREAT but it isn't that bad.

It is a pretty sad excuse for a 1/1 card. But Topps does what Topps wants

Ajax1723

It is shown exactly as advertised. There is an auto jersey 1/1, and an auto patch 1/1. This is the auto jersey version.

Inception is also spelled wrong in the title of the listing, but to each his own...

Lol. They never fail to amaze, do they? Its not surprising we are so low in all of the educational testing. Buying 9 cases worth of Phillies for Tommy Joseph is a whole different topic.

He's mad that the relic piece is a single color jersey, not some super patch like the Draft Future's Game Jumbo Patches. But the thing is, it's not supposed to be the relic that makes it a 1/1, it's simply the color. Just like in Bowman, the red paper is a 1/1. Nothing special to it, it's just red. That's the color they chose for the one-of-a-kind collectible.

I'd be pretty happy if I hit a 1/1 auto relic of a top prospect for a big market team.

This isn't the card you were looking for then. If you wanted his patch auto 1/1 you need to find that. This is exactly what the sell sheets said it would be.

goldglove2144
06-29-2013, 11:20 PM
Obviously you won't be pulling it in your group breaks or what not. So at this point, why not hope for the best, and if you want the Joseph 1/1, flip some stuff for it? But apparently you don't want it because it is only a single color jersey? I don't really get your reasoning.

The card says relic auto..there's a relic on there..and an auto..I still like it. Baby blue isn't a relic color you see often (it seems)..and it looks nice w/ the color of the card...BTW..what's bowman LNCEPTION :P

06-30-2013, 09:02 AM
As numerous people have pointed out, there is a JERSEY 1/1 and a PATCH 1/1. This is the jersey. I'm guessing the card you're looking for is the patch version. Don't buy this one and wait for the patch series to surface...or buy this and accept that it's a JERSEY parallel not a PATCH parallel.

I also have to second the, "Ashame on you" comment.

Maybe they didn't want to waste a good patch on a sub par player who can't hit for average and prob. won't make the bigs as a starter? Tj needs to hit like he did in 2011 again!!!!!!!!!!

Well of course you can, but people don't have to agree with it. You posted your opinion, everyone else posted theirs - it just so happens they think differently.

no you can post your opinion but you can't be frustrated when your opinion is in the vast minority or is proven to not be the fail that you thought it was

And here I was, ready to go with the explanation as to where the baby blue uniform came from (Reading Phillies). I didn't know the beef would be as minimal as it was.

Never did understand how people got all moits or butthurt over a piece of material.

If I was a collector of whatever player this is listed and it was a single color that would mean that I knew I would get the card for less and I would be happy with that.

Now back to whatever this thread was about!

You can, but when you don't get the responses you want, don't get all pissy and pout. Topps gets it's share of criticism when they mess up, but you're here trying to create a problem that doesn't exist. They didn't mess up this card, don't try and "ashame" them for it.

ANY card is worthy of being a 1/1

Although, I agree, it would look much nicer on card, with a sick patch

Curious why the patch is baby blue and not red (Phillies color)?

I pulled a Chicago White Sox prospect and the patch was dark blue?

Not necessarily. There's no need to be so terse - - it could very well be the Reading Phillies baby blue jersey.

The Reading Phillies do.

Tommy Joseph has not yet played in the major leagues.
