Mailday: Topps Million Card Giveaway - No special Foil

[P_Manning 18]

Got this in this afternoon.


Overall condition is ok.... a few minor creases.... some edge chipping.... corners are decent.... not sure its worth the money to get graded. With no special foil.... wonder if PSA or BVG will put a special note on it for Topps Million.

It could look worse, a lot worse.

Thanks for posting this up, I was curious to see what they looked like delivered.

How would PSA verify that it's indeed the one from the giveaway?

They would not

Crease on the right side screams PSA 2 or 3 anyway

Can you tell us how it came? Bubble mailer, DC, toploader, etc.?

Two 500 HR Club members + three HOFers = WINNER!

NICE!

It came in a toploader.... no team bag... no tape. They take the invoice from the order and fold it twice and put the toploader in the invoice and it was all placed in a bubble mailer.

not too bad, how much did they charge to ship?

$2.92 for the first card.... not sure... but its like 50 cents for each card after that I think...

they are going to have about 750,000 1987-1994 cards to donate after the promotion

Watch out 2012 Topps. There will be a TON of worthless buy back cards inserted :lol:

That card is a great win. Not actually worth much but atleast it isnt a 1987 Bobby Meacham.
Dont waste your money grading it. Its creased, soft corners, OC and diamond cut.

I just requested my 3 cards to be shipped. Pretty simple process...they REQUIRED UPS shipping with DC AND insurance! So, I had no choice in that.

Anyone ship their cards via UPS? How long did it take?

I know what you mean, but maybe 2% of the targeted audience for this promotion knows what grading is. But with that said, I certainly wouldn't mind owning that card!

I used UPS. I put my order in on April 15th. They arrived yesterday. It took 2 days via UPS to get to me, so not bad once they finally shipped the cards. One card was hammered (1952). The other was nice (1953).

An angry customer showed up on the Topps board... he couldn't believe the poor condition his '52 was in. This guy actually thought that Topps had been storing these cards for all these years and that they would be at least near mint. :lol: ::facepalm:: :lol:

I wasn't expecting mint cards either, but I certainly wasn't expecting a big fat heavy crease through my 52 either!
