BRUTAL box of 5 Star
First and last time I buy high end from Topps. EVERY CARD in the box was chipped or dinged except for the Willis auto. For the price, I was expecting a little more QC. On top of that, was a little disgusted with the hits.
Not sure if I'm going to trade any of these. I may try to get Topps to replace the whole thing. Wish me luck!

I know. He's been haunting my breaks lately. I pulled a jersey/auto of his /5 out of Plates and Patches the other day.

This product is just brutal in general compared to last year. Lots more semi-star autos, lots less nice multi-colored patches, and just lot less bang for the buck compared to last year

I saw this on the bay yesterday. It made me laugh pretty hard. Hey if you jump now, you can get it for 30 percent off!

My favorite part is that there are 2 offers that have both been retracted. Reading the auction is ALWAYS step #1, folks.
