Default Metal Champions: Upside Down Gretzky Auto

https://www.ebay.com/itm/23479579176...mis&media=COPY

Upper Deck strikes again!

I really wanted to pick up a Gretzky auto from the Metal Universe Champions product — but what do I notice when I finally find one for a halfway decent price?

THE AUTOGRAPH IS UPSIDE DOWN!!!

It’s bad enough this is a stupid sticker auto, but the genius who put it on the card apparently has never seen a Gretzky auto and placed it UPSIDE DOWN!!!!

Shaking head. Ruined an otherwise great card.

Thoughts?

Default bad....

Ugly mistake and tbh, not a great looking card all around IMO. To each their own. That person should be fired though! ugh

There are much nicer looking and affordable Gretzky autos around.

Exactly for about 25% of that ridiculous price…and on card.

That has to be one of the goofiest Gretzky cards I've seen even before the upside down auto.

Yep. Nice on-card Oilers ones too, for a fraction of the price.

Why do people insist on grossly overpricing stuff on COMC anyway? Not just this card but basically every other mid-to-high end card is priced vastly above eBay.

No idea. So many PC Cards I need on COMC that are grossly overpriced and will never sell.
