A RANT BY NICK

Hard to Believe

It is very seldom I actually get on a rant in our newsletter about a
sports card manufacture but what I am about to show you is almost hard to believe.

 

One of our customers purchased a 2015 Box of Topps Heritage baseball which is designed to look exactly like a previous Topps release (this year being based on the 1966 style).

 

Topps loves to promote the fact that they put ORIGINAL 1966 Topps cards stamped with their famous/infamous "Topps Original" so that the customer will know it is an actual original card from that year.

 

Below is the actual card one of our customers pulled from a box of 2015 Topps Heritage.  It would appear someone at Topps actually took the time to find this card, stamp the card with the "Topps Original 2015", and put it into their packs where it ended up in a box of cards in Dallas, Texas.

 

Perhaps they need a new pair of eyes in their quality control department!

 

 

 

 

 

  The card on the left is a card you could purchase from our store for $1.50-$2.00. The one on the right is the card Topps bought back and inserted into their pack.  I am at a loss for words other then.................REALLY!
