    Blaster box tampering?

    So I bought a blaster box of Gridiron gear from Target yesterday. Every single pack was opened on one end already. It was shrink wrapped, and I couldn't find any evidence of tampering (other than the packs being opened). The only thing I could think is that someone opened the packs, took out anything good, and re-shrink wrapped the box. What do you think? SHould I even bother trying to contact anyone. I doubt they'd believe me anyway.

    Looks like you got shafted. Store won't take back open boxes.

    Sorry to hear that man, you got screwed. But its sad that even Blaster boxes can be "searched." I have heard of some people bringing in scales and weighing the Blaster boxes and getting the heavier box with the jerseys.

    That's what i figured too. I keep telling myself not to buy retail. But the closest hobby shop is a long drive away. I give into the temptation very now and then. I guess I'll take it as a lesson learned.

    Hey raltherr call the store you bought them from and ask to talk to the manager,The same thing happened to me at a Targets,my wife surprised me with a box of playoff absolute retail,The ones that come with the guaranteed rookie jersey,Well upon opening the box I also noticed all the packs inside were slightly opened a bad sign and yes the gu wasn't in it.I spoke to the manager explained what happened and went back the next day.I couldn't get my money back but they let me get another box of something else in the 19.99 range since they had no more playoff absolute.The guy probably didn't finish shrinkwrapping the rest he bought to bring them back.Sorry for the long response but i figure it might be able to help you,Take care Steve
