Well, you buy "packs" which sell specific cards. When those packs sell out that sold specific insert cards, they mark those cards "Sold Out" and lock in the cards count. Some cards have 50, some have 5000, and some base cards (available all season long) amount to the millions. Normally packs with "autographs" are only available for a few hours, like those old ceramic plates with Elvis on them ("fired for only 24 hours!!!")
