Platinum Blaster condition issues
A couple years ago, I bought a bunch of Platinum boxes and a lot of the cards were in bad shape condition wise with a lot of creases and scuffs.
I took another shot this week with a blaster and I found even more condition issues. One card was completed smudged. A few were dented and there were some with creases.
Just seeing if other people had condition issues with these cards.

I had a couple issue with there being a very distinct ding, almost a pin-hole in the center of the card. I think 3-4 cards were like this out of 9 value packs/4 blasters... 2 of them were buxton/correa refractors which I was kind of pissed about. Other than that, the cards came out clean.
Are the blaster boxes you are buying being kicked around Target or something?

RE: Platinum Blaster condition issues
I have bought 3 blasters of platinum, and out of one of the 4 cards were damaged at the bottom of the card, almost seems like the picture was peeling the cardboard, all 4 cards were in same place bottom middle of card, sent them to be replaced early this week, reason because one of them was a manny machado rc,.. I had a pic of them on my blaster break thread..

RE: Platinum Blaster condition issues
haven't had any issues with the hobby i've opened.
last few retail packs i've opened have been brutal. creases in cards, dings in the side and tops, and really bad cuts, can almost see the number of the next card on the sheet on the bottom of the card.
sending out about a dozen cards tomorrow, including a puig
