OK, I have a box of 2011 Bowman Platinum, 2011 Topps Prime FB, and 2011 Topps Triple Threads.

If you had to guess which of those 3 saved me from a BRUTAL kick in the snake, which would you guess?

Bowman Platinum?

And a Michael Choice Green REF auto.

Nope, not the BP.


Topps Prime FB?

That's not the greatest at all. Sure, I got a Packer RC I wanted, but I also got crap for the rest.

So you're saying it was the TTT? Who has that product been kind to?

Wow nice card but is that scuffs on the card or is it from the scanner.

Yeah, that was some weird stuff on my scanner that you couldn't see until I scanned it. The card itself is clean.

Ok you need to stop scanner you package to make it look bigger. If you do so then clean the glass afterwords :lol:

It's actually the result of my biggest complaint when people ship. DO NOT PUT TAPE ON THE TOPLOADER. I get a 5-card lot in the mail, and the top and bottom top loaders are taped together to make a small brick. Well, thanks, now I have 2 top loaders with tape residue on the front or back. Then the residue makes it to my scanner and the cards stick together in my shoe boxes.

That's my story anyway, and I'm sticking to it.

Well said, I hate the tape residue as well, but the occasional seller will still use the crap tape.Recently, I had a seller stupidly send a card in a flimsy Card saver, and he taped the card inside of it.I open the envelope and the card has partially slid of of the sleeve, so I have to peel the tape off the card that had slid out of the sleeve.Luckily surface did not rip when I pulled the tape off of it.

FYI, I couldn't see most of the cards pulled, guess he deleted them already.What else did he pull?
