Strasburg M/C Purple ref...what to Do

[marterburn]

This bugs me, it's miscut, not merely O/C. I think I could get this replaced by Topps, but should I? Or shoud I just cash in now!

Scan coming in a second.

 

[Exposfan]

Sell, put into in item description. Full disclaimer, it will still sell big.

 

[marterburn]

check the bottom of the card. There is some non-purple showing, ergot miscut.

 

[cmixer]

that's nasty - but they won't replace -

yeah, i was thinking that's also a risk. Then I'd end up with missing out on the fun of having an auction going during the call-up hype.

 

[jeff550]

id buy it

 

[gvsu96]

Sell it as us.

why wont they? I have about 40 chromes that are 95/5 t/b.
i cant send those back?

they need to fire thier QC people then! It's not your fault. I got a heritage of Feliz that was miscut.::facepalm:: I would sell it now while the hype is there.

 

[marterburn]

ok ok, sell it is!

thanks guys. it will be swimming by later tonight. not available here, don't blame me for that, blame the hype!

Make it sound like a good thing :lol: I would sell now though. I don't think Topps will replace it.

Topps will claim it's a "complete card" but not a true error -

 

[Halonut]

i'd take a chance with topps, we are not talking 70/30 centering here. i am 99.9% sure they will take care of you in this case.

 

[All The Hype]

I've posted this a few times now, but check out this Grant Green purple ref I pulled yesterday from a blaster. There is absolutely zero quality control for this product. This is what MLB exclusivity for Topps gets you.

I agree about the QC, but really, is it any worse than when there were umpteen bajillion companies? I've pulled a lot of f'ed up cards back in the day.

 

[brianga26]

I just sold mine.. for $169.00 but it was pretty well centered

Yep, and it's still better than the pre-90s quality control.

ok i lied. makes a lot more sense for me to start a 5 day auction tomorrow night, doesn't it?

 

[A_Pharis]

See? THOSE are cards worth getting replacements for. I actually would hope they'd do something about both of those examples.

Squeeze out a Cleveland Steamer on that bad boy and send it back!
