Was scanning in a few blue refractors and noticed that one or two of them have these dark marks on them. You can see it on the Gindl about half way down the border on the left side. I also have a spot like this on my Derek Norris blue refractor and was wondering if anyone else had any like this.

I had that issue with this gold refractor:


I sent it back to Topps and they sent me another gold refractor with the same problem. I sent the second one back and eventually ended up with a different (non-defective) one. If you still have the packs and UPC label, you should ask for replacements (IMO). I didn't have any problems with blue refractors, but it's probably harder to notice on the blues (compared to the golds).
