Both of these cards ended at $30 exactly ..... one is /5 weak patch and the other is /20 nice patch , Which one would you personally prefer ? I always thought the lower the serial number the more expensive because of supply / demand . Which do you think collectors are more after ?

On some flawless cards , I;ve seen a /25 with a better patch then the 1/1 !





In the perfect world .... a low numbered card with an awesome patch would be great , lol

I'd prefer a better looking patch over serial #.
I saying that, that /5 patch isn't shabby!

me personally like lower # cards as there is less out there.
As for patches yeah that def something i have seen in the little time i have been collecting / looking at cards on ebay and other sites.
Crazy to think something like /5's have average patches.

I'd go for the better patch if I was only going for 1 of them. The only difference is the lower numbered one has green foil instead of silver. Another reason why all these parallels are ridiculous!

If it was a PC player if be going for the lower numbered version. If it's just a player I want to get something nice of then the patch.

I'd get both lol
Did they have different end times? Sometimes I find that prices are lower when a product is first released as not everyone knows they are out yet and miss the auction so you find some differences in prices. I've found that a lot with /75 Immaculate RPA's versus the /25 version, it's weird.

I paid the same price for an /10 as I did the /5. Both of them I was prepared to pay more (with a higher allowance for the /5) but the other bids were what dictated the price. However, if the higher numbered card looked a lot better than he lower numbered one, and you could only choose one, it would depend on what you were collecting more - the lower numbered because you might not see another, or the higher numbered because it was a nicer looking one for your collection.

I usually tend to go for the lower numbered one with bad patch , I guess its just limited supply make me go for them , Im the type that tries to collect a full set , ( 1/1, /5 , /10 , /25 ex ) And the lower numbered ones rarely pop up . Lower # > higher # better patch

I do think Panini should look into this and give a patch on a card accordingly to their serial # ......... having a flawless /25 with a better patch then the platinum 1/1 is ridiculous , low numbered cards should have sick patches , anything higher numbered should have a less attractive patch

Definitely both haha.
As a PC'er I'd go the low numbered first just so I had one then try for the higher numbered better patch later.
