OK so I fell for it again.
But how can anyone pass up a $1.59 rack pack!?
The promise of 3 VINTAGE Topps cards keeps suckering me.
I just KNOW that I'm bound to get something really good like a star card from the 50's, or at least decent common from pre-1968 right?
Don't you all think that?
It NEVER HAPPENS. NE-VER!
Of the 2006 Topps cards inside, this is the best one. Seriously.
And only because just last night I watched for the billionth time my MLB 2002 World Series DVD and enjoyed the Game Two segment where the Angels shelled Russ Ortiz for 7 runs in 1.2 innings.
Typical inserts. Lame
Ok so I made it to the pack with the vintage Topps cards.
Ready for this?
In order:
Can someone explain how a 2006 checklist IN A 2006 RACK PACK is a VINTAGE CARD!!
SCREWED YET AGAIN!
I guess it would be ok if you were a checklist card collector lol but yea that sucks...I would still probably pick one up myself though just for the laugh.
ReplyDeleteLooks like you got shorted a card (card was probably taken out and rack pack repackaged).
ReplyDeleteThe "vintage" cards in 2006 rack packs were grouped together in the middle portion of the three compartments. There were 3 vintage cards, but the 2006 checklist was always in the middle portion, too. So Topps didn't intend for the checklist to be a vintage card, there's just a vintage card missing.
I opened zillions of these, so I have the packaging memorized.
I opened up one of those 100 card repackaged deals that promised 3 vintage cards I got 3 "vintage" cards as promised assuming by vintage you mean Pre-1980. The 3 I got were 2 manager cards from 1978 and a 1979 card.
