Ex: What is a Superfractor? Who is Bryce Harper? Why does Topps have the only MLB license?

There's chrome cards which are shiny.
And refractors that are sort of rainbow shiny.
And superfractors that are often shiny, rainbow and plaid. (And far less common)
The latest hot prospect. Who will more than likely put up very average numbers for 10-12 years.(Ok, I hope not but I bet even Nostradamus went for the easy ones once in a while)
Because even MLB thought there were too many cards out there, and too many companies failing. Since MLB gets up front money plus a cut of profits it wasn't a bad idea to put the brakes on a bit. Plus Upper deck got caught doing bad things
again Counterfeiting their own product! Brilliant!
