Appreciate your comments and, wholehardly, agree. Back in the 80's and 90's I was buying boxes and putting together sets. I was having fun - then - first, I bought a box of probably 91 Upper Deck and did not get a card in the 600 series in the entire box, then, the subsets started coming out - when 1 of 1 started coming out I quit as I realized I could never finish a set and started into vintage Cubs. I have subsequently sent my surplus to auction just to pare down what I had. I still have fun only not as much as when I was opening packs. My kids and grandkids get me some packs to open every Christmas and I subsequently send those off also. Your comment about what difference did it make it it was a 9.5 or higher is the same thought I had. If it was truly a 1 of 1 it shouldn't make any difference. I also am with you on the "quid pro quo" statement.
