I have no illusion that any card company has ever cared a lot about the hobbyists vs the hobbyists money. There are too many examples to list. There are more examples than 1989 Upper Deck Griffey Jr cards that exist that weren't pulled from packs.

This hobby is sketchy as hell. It's also full of great people. I accept it at face value. Stick around long enough you'll get all kinds of screwed over and find all kinds of really solid people.
Yes, yes it is a very sketchy hobby. The card companies have no reason to care and I can guarantee the low wage employees at that card company really don't care. They also hated it when Score gave them cards for a Christmas bonus/present.
