The 🐐

This was my favorite pickup of 2025. My favorite card in my collection. Game used two color and some textures in the patches. The scratches you see are on the case not the card. I love the color match as well.

Huge fan of leaf game used patch cards. This is my second favorite Messi in my collection. So cool knowing it's a piece of game used kit. Anyone have any thoughts on the soccer market and world cup? I also think numbering doesn't really matter on leaf cards, just the player, look, and patch quality

I’ll take an unlicensed card with a guaranteed Game-Used patch over a licensed card with a "randomly associated" patch every single time.

I feel like we’ve traded away the "relic" part of relic cards just to have the team logo on the cardboard. I’m choosing the history of the jersey over the license.

Is an unlicensed card a total dealbreaker for your PC regardless of the patch quality?

Leaf is the best value in the hobby right now in my opinion.

Honestly I think game used should be worth more than an equivalent licensed non game used. But I suppose that's just my preference. I'll take the cheaper deals all day long.
