2009 Triple Threads question

jcmint · Dec 31, 2009

For any of you guys who opened this product the question is about quality control. I have a bunch of auto/gu cards that have a red ink/dye at the top left corner of the card. You can really only see this from a side view. Has anyone seen this with their cards

It's magenta ink. Cards are print in CMYK...cyan, magenta, yellow, black. It is someone being stupid and sloppy. Or the cutter operator not giving a rats ass about what was cut before those cards.

I have a Pujols patch with the same red stain at the bottom of the card. I got a good deal on it at a shop because of the printing stain.

Not sure about Cathy, but good luck with CS. Topps has been incredibly difficult as of late.

That is what I am hearing. They used to be very cool. I am not asking for the "oh I did not get my auto in my box". I actually have cards with dye on them.
