Every none baseball card on the list, that is cut out of, perforated out of something, ripped out of something, should include a picture of the original item. There should not be two listings of it.

The "game" cards are not cut out of something. Nothing was modified to create the illusion of a card.

This has nothing to do with postal stamps.

Though, the 1996 Pro Stamps is another instance of this. I think that it is stupid to have that item listed twice as well. If you only have the "stamp" then you have a damaged item.

I think what is going on here, is this is being done just to increase the collector count of items.

I will agree with you that if we are going to list a panel and the card that it was cut out of than we should list every clear package of cards that you can see Juan in. If we have a photoball then we should list it multiple times, one with the wrapper, one without the wrapper. We should list that collector's choice package that you whined about forever. I don't agree with any of this but duplicating these oddball items seems to be important to someone so make it consistent. Makes it easier to get to "4000" items!
