I do know that 3 of the players did not sign their jerseys. A specific manager of 3 of the players wanted a huge fee for them to sign a jersey hence why only 13 players will have them signed.
So the players in question would have signed 150+ cards but wouldn't put one more sig on a jersey without huge $$$. How ridiculous, probably not the player as opposed to their manager but that is a joke

I don't remember ESP letting that one out of the bag before everyone had paid for their pre-orders. I don't know if anyone would have changed their mind, I wouldn't have, but a bit of transparency would help ESP's reputation.
Something like this seems to happen every release. Maybe not their fault but let the people keeping them employed know. Communication.
TBH I wouldn't have actually made the assumption the jersey was signed as there is already the autograph on the card. I don't think ESP have done anything below board here. It would be cool to have a game worn jersey next year!
i thought they were all signed judging from those photos we saw, and i was under the impression until about 3 days ago that the future star / young guns had signed jerseys too, but i guess thats not the case, which doesn't really phase me, just thought they were.
Don't you think it would make sense that if ESP is going to give you a "bonus" for pulling a #1 that they would at least know beforehand that every League Sensation would be signing or not.
I can't see the reason why they would let 13 of them sign a jersey when the other 3 wouldn't or couldn't.
Why not just scrap the idea of the jersey altogether then or come up with something that all number #1's get a limited 1 of 1 special from each club or something ?
Just doesn't make sense to me.
I know i'd feel a bit jipped if i ended up with an unsigned framed jersey displayed with a number 1 card when someone else ends up with a signed jersey.
