I realize that different people have different tastes.....having said that....I absolutely hate reprints.
The main reason that I hate them is because it clutters up Ebay search results. When you have reprints of 1987 Topps cards (archives, refractors, etc), that means that it is getting out of hand.
Give me the originals. My Cardinals Topps autograph collection is ONLY original Topps cards. No reprints or archives.
Having said that, I do have a few reprint team sets for my Cardinals team set collection (ie 1983 reprints of the 1952 Topps set). The only reason I have them is because it is in the SCD catalog and my Cardinals team set collection would be incomplete without it. I only have the set for that reason....it is not because I like them.
