From blowout
After waiting 9+ months for two full item redemptions to show up I finally got a surprise package in the mail Friday. Considering I was told by Topps on numerous occasions that these would either be game-used hats or jerseys I was surprised that it was one of their regular white cardboard envelopes.
When I opened it I was shocked to find two 4" x 3" magnets. One was the Orioles logo and the other was a Texas logo. Confused as heck I looked up the mlb holograms on them and found out they were magnets used on the 2013 draft board for the 2nd round.
I couldn't stop laughing. Topps stated on their sell sheet that those redemptions were for items from minor league games and their customer service staff assured me they would both be game-used jerseys or hats.
Instead they sent a computer print out of a team logo pasted onto a magnet and used at an event that has nothing to do with a game.
Needless to say I'll be calling customer service today when I have 20 minutes to wait on hold. Anyone have info on where to file a complaint for bait and switch if they don't fix the situation? Thanks
