The logo doesn't really affect me, it's the quality of their cards that does.
By the way, your link doesn't work. :shrug:

Here's what the old logo looked like:

For some reason my browser... Mozilla Firefox; will not let me see it. Keeps saying "problem loading page". Can you copy & paste what it says? I'd really like to see it. :)

I am on a mini upper deck boycott. Their products stink and they have horrible customer service. I will stick to topps and bowman.

Sorry that my 2nd post has to be on a negative note, but I am w/ bailiff.

When UD charges $25-$200 a pack, and puts "redemptions" that will never be fulfilled, or you have to wait up to a year, that's horse poo!! What they're (UD) basically doing is taking your money in advance to front their latest, greatest product which will be filled with yet MORE empty promises....I mean redemptions.

[bailiff]

Exactly. The redemption issue is one of the main reasons why I (and according to my local card shop, and Beckett), many people avoid UD products like the plague.

Actually, from what I've experienced, their redemption service is actually much better than Topps. HOWEVER, I DO have access to a UD-affiliated dealer (aka a guy who gets all the UD products before the other, common people of the world). Another thing that's pretty annoying about UD is that while I think their redemption service is good, it's like it's lulled them into a false sense of security and they have WAY more redemption cards for GU/Auto items than Topps does.

Good point Dalkowski. The best thing (imo) that could happen for baseball cards (not that it would ever happen) would be for a 3rd brand (not donruss or tristar) to come along and put out just a good solid set. I don't mind redemptions, but send them to me on time, and give me equal or better value if you run out.

[Dalkowski110]

If there were a third brand to come along, it would probably be TriStar or Press Pass. TriStar has the connections, Press Pass has the money (although they're kinda Donruss-like in their approach to things...if they changed and just released cheap yet comprehensive sets every year, they'd get a ton of money).
