As more basketball sets get added, here's a yearly reminder: please do NOT put "RC" notation on On-Demand sets (e.g. Panini Instant). Just had to clear a bunch out from this year and last. RC is reserved for Major Releases.

As I was plowing through 2020 Topps, I noticed that card 242 Alex Young is listed as UER because he had a 2019 Topps Now card and therefore the RC marking on the card is an error. So, this mean that this should be classified as RC because Topps Now is an on-demand set?

Topps and Panini will slap RC on any and every card they can in order to drive the market craze. Just because the manufacturer slaps it on the card doesn't make it so. "RC is reserved for Major Releases."
Similar to how, in the 80s, Beckett created the XRC notation (long before RC was placed on a card mind you) for the boxed traded sets and the RC was in the flagship sets the following year.

Doesn't fully work. Tyler Anderson's only RC is a Topps Now card. None of his future cards had a RC logo meaning that Topps Now is a legit rookie card according to Topps.

Topps Now is On-Demand, not a Major Release. There shouldn't be any RCs in those sets.

Especially Panini who puts their RC logo on college cards.

Someday my cards may double in value and then be worth half of what I paid for them. |

What about team sets are the RC cards in those not true RC cards.
I truely do not get why on-demand sets cannot be considered rookie cards and only major releases can be considered.

Has there been any recent discourse with admin pertaining to this and I missed something or is that something that hasn't been recently just in the FAQ section? Also what about team sets?
Not trying to change it just have discourse on it. On-Demand has been more prevalent this year and last more than any.
