Topps Replacement. Really, Topps? ...Really?

[W_Raoul2]

A few of you may remember this thread I made:


http://www.blowoutcards.com/forums/b...ment-scan.html


I took a few days to think about it, and receiving no interest on it, I decided to send it in. Figured, what's the worst that could happen?


Was happy to see Topps sent me something back, really disappointed when I opened it.


Here's what was inside:









Had a letter that read, "Dear Customer(s), The card(s) you requested were unavailable. The card(s) enclosed are of equal or higher value."


Now I didn't expect to get a HOFer silver ink at all, and the player is about right value wise, but the auto on it is worse than the one I sent in, which is why I sent it in....


I think Topps is just yanking my chain on this one, and not in the good way. :(


What do you guys think? Worth replacement? How's the ink look? Can you request a replacement for a replacement?


I'd really appreciate input on this one. Thanks...

They fixed the corners! Looks like an improvement in my book!

HAH!

Just kidding. Seriously, you're right though. Two no names, so that's "fair" I guess, but they should do better Quality Assurance on these autos, because that's screwed up.

If Brett Anderson and Jimmy Paredes are Tier 1 I don't want to see Tier 2 and Tier 3....

I think they literally got this back from someone else for the same reason, and just swapped us. It's a shame though, I'll most likely be sending this one back as well....

HAHA! Exactly, you'd think they'd put a few less lower name guys in a higher end product! :P
