There are plenty of cards which have never and will never be given the stamp so I don't see that as a problem. My point, which I made to Topps in 1992 and still holds today is,,, without a way to ID the older card came from a current year pack, well your 1989 common *which one of my friends pulled in 1991* is worth 5 cents but with a stamp it would be a few dollars. And you got to have the value to do those inserts
