1 Pack of Sterling - Hologram on the swatch?

Old Nap · 01-12-2013, 09:49 PM

Well, I got caught up in playoff fever and tried a pack of Sterling. Not sure I did too well. The most interesting thing is the NFL hologram sticker is still on the jersey? That epitomizes the "Player worn" label. Haha. Makes me wonder if they even took the price tag off? Everything is available.

I actually have something similar. Mine has what I believe is a JSA sticker on it

That's my biggest problem with the swatches. Topps and Panini use retail versions instead of player versions for the cards.

In a Twitter conversation with Topps about Russell Wilson having the wrong swatches in their cards, their reply was they couldn't get ahold of any "Nike Elite" jerseys. So basically, they admitted to using retail replica jerseys as their "authentic" memorabilia.

I don't understand why there isn't a bigger backlash in the hobby.

I've seen one other James with the hologram on the patch, but it was the lower right corner of the patch. Maybe those two match up!?

The Elite jerseys are Authentic jerseys. The game jerseys are Replica's, Limited jerseys are the same as Reeboks Premier Jerseys.
