Contenders on-card error?
went through my 1st box break of contenders and i pulled a t.j. graham auto... card#231 and its supposed to be an oncard auto.. but this one is a sticker. needless to say the box "guarentees" 2 on-cards but i only got 1 technically.
any thoughts?

I got one too. As far as I can tell, they didn't want to have too many redemptions so they put stickers on some of what were supposed to be on-card autos

Yeah the Graham was suppose to be an on-card auto, but by the looks of what Panini has said they struggled to get a lot of the on cards autoed so they stuck sticker autos on a lot of these cards to cut down the amount of redemptions. I guess they figure it is the less of the two evils!
They have mentioned on their blog I think it was that the players that do not have the white space at the bottom (like the Graham) are all suppose to be on-card.

My Michael Egnew is the same way. Plus his autograph is cut off, so much for a SP Variation.

This is why think they should get rid of all guarantees on boxes. We never get what we expect. So frustrating.
