Last week or actually the week before that I hit up Ebay for some stuff as our other go to online places seems to have some issues. I specifically targeted some Braves stuff that I need. I came across an unopened box of 1998 Pinnacle Snapshots.
I completely went brain dead for a moment. I totally forgot I was searching Braves, and I hit the buy it now button, thinking oh boy I can can rip some packs and get my Braves they have 18 different, and then some others for my PC. WRONG. Brain fart bigtime, it was a Braves box! Now I did recover before it actually arrived, and chalked it up to well I'll get my set and my Braves PC guys with some extras.
I am over it now, done. I did mark off 18 new to me Braves from the TCDB count. They count these as cards even though they really are photographs. So that leaves me with this: Do you think that TCDB should be counting these? I see and know that they count all kinds of things as "cards/items" some I agree with some I do not. What do you think?
Now for a little fun.

Yes, I voted!
I say they should count on TCDB. I always liked team photopacks.
ReplyDeleteI don't think I knew these existed. I've got a whole 18 more Dodgers to add. ... Yes, I think TCDB should include these, as it's including stuff that is a lot less of a "card" than these.
ReplyDeleteNever knew they existed. Just checked out the Yankees on TCDB, lots of fun photos in there. Sure, they're cards to me.
ReplyDeleteI like a lot of the photos, and think they should be listed on TCDB, but who knows what they think.
ReplyDeleteI think I remember buying at least a pack or two at Target nearly 30 years ago - but the ones available were Anaheim Angels ones.
ReplyDeleteNever seen these before. You have a checklist. Photos on cardstock. I say they should qualify. Enjoy it all!
ReplyDeleteI love oddball issues like these. I have no problem with TCDB adding them to their site. They might be photos more than trading cards, but they list all of the Jay Publishing photos from the 60's... and those were newspaper thin. At least these were printed on photo quality paper. I'm just annoyed that Pinnacle didn't produce boxes for A's or Padres fans to bust.
ReplyDeleteI say they qualify. I've seen other stuff that's less card worthy and it's there. These are almost like cards.
ReplyDeleteMaybe an issue like this should be counted because it is issued by a card company, but i feel they should draw the line at team issued postcards.
