They also produce a ton of jersey cards from "player-worn" events. So people that want real NFL jerseys worn during games hated getting cheaper jersey pieces than they expected.
Panini has also had some major flubs of big money projects like "Flawless" where they used non-NFL jerseys for Russell Wilson game worn cards that were obvious fakes. You can read more about it on www.blowoutcards.com/forums in the football section if you search.

But the major reason, is that people have grown up collecting Topps. So the resale market tanks because the cards aren't Topps, even though they're now officially licensed and sometimes even have the logos of the college teams.

Ok that makes sense thanks for the reply.

Has their been an official announcement that Panini will NOT put out a base, boxed set?

Or is it just opinions of the board?

Panini rarely does boxed factory sets. If that is what you are waiting for, the odds are against you.

But if you want to have fun, wait for their Score brand to hit and buy those packs. Usually a lot of players, nice mix of inexpensive inserts and a set which can be completed.
