They collect cards and we collect game used items...two different hobbies.

That's true, I was in that hobby for over 20 years before I made the switch. That's also why people spend so much on high end rookie autograph patches even though most of those jerseys are event worn from the rookie premiere events. I know a lot of card collectors like the look of a jumbo multi-colored patch, or a logoman regardless of the authenticity or if it was just worn for 5 seconds by a player at the event. They'd rather just assume it's real and not really about the authenticity aspect.
