Ben Sure there were a bunch of miscut cards in the eighties and nineties but that’s hardly an excuse for lousy QC in 2010 considering that it’s not the eighties and nineties anymore and printing technology should have advanced a lot since then.
Also, you used to get a lot more cards per pack so a couple of miscut cards here and there didn’t eat at you like for instance my box of 2010 Topps Chrome Baseball where 1-2 cards in every 4-card pack was badly off center.
I just returned to the hobby since like 1992 and I’ve had more QC issues with Topps this year than I ever did when I was a kid: shorted packs, damaged cards, etc. I really can’t see myself coming back for more of that in 2011.
I honestly had more fun this year opening up the so-called “junk wax” that I ordered along with the new stuff. Of course, I didn’t pay $20 a box for it though.
