It’s also a Fanatics sticker. I also got a top 15% sticker on t206 Cobb Uzit I had sent there from REA last summer.

I don’t understand why anybody would remove the stickers… even if they only add 1 or 2%, heck that’s a lot of added value based on today’s prices.

I’m including pix since every thread needs a card.
Isn't the thorpe like population 1?

I recall the first time I received a card with the sticker on the back - I removed it. Who wants the sticker on their card? But when I saw it somehow added some value to a potential sales price I did a simple equation in my head: is the extra money in a future sale worth having to tolerate the sticker on the back? To me the sticker is relatively unobtrusive so I kept them on. At the end of the day, all our cards are to be sold in the future by us anyway. Even if we’re all diehard collectors.

I think about this often.

Glad someone said it.

The PWCC stickers are on the back of the slab & pretty unintrusive as you stated. I’m not a fan of the MBA stickers on be slab’s front (should be on the back). I like those.

The new Fanatics stickers are a total joke. Additionally, their big ugly stickers are usually stuck tilted & they lowered the standards (likely new people doing the reviews).

On a diff note, I 100% agree with your last statement. “At the end of the day, all our cards are to be sold in the future by us anyway. Even if we’re all diehard collectors.”

I agree completely.
