Topps Damaged Harper Replacement Received

[BunchOBull]

So it seems everyone is just so beat up by Topps and their terrible customer service that it has now become acceptable to take a lesser valued card despite what their own letter states. If they sent him a lesser valued card why does he have "no right to complain"? Just because others have had it worse? They all have a right to complain when Topps fails to deliver the replacement value.

I think this is fair simply because Topps replaced damage that may not in fact be from the factory and could have likely and easily come from the mishandling of a pack searcher. I mean it was a loose pack from Wal-Mart.

This Harper card will be a $5 card before long anyways. I'd say that replacement is very fair and most likely even tipped in your favor.

I can't decide if you're kidding, or if you just missed a zero when typing.

When they find out he isn't God, his prices may eventually reflect it...

Agreed. The damage on the original card had all the markings of pack searching, so I think you came out well ahead. With that said, if you were concerned solely with sale value, you might have been better off selling the damaged card. Archives set builders would would likely have still netted a decent price, and I doubt Topps would replace a gu card with a similarly priced auto simply because their cost on a jersey swatch is significantly lower than a similar tier auto.

I'd rather have the 5 star..

The Five Star was a fair replacement. Better replacement than I ever got when requesting one. I actually prefer the jumbo swatch as well.
