Busted a couple of boxes that my wife got me for valentine's day. None are available.

The platinum was nothing special.

Rob Gronkowski Auto /999
Marcus Easley Blue Refractor Auto /599
Ben Tate Nice 3 clr patch auto /800

The unrivaled yielded my best pull so far.

Mardy Gilyard Auto /680
Arreelious Benn /480


and.......

Adrian Peterson patch auto (part of viking head I believe) /10

Also as my luck would have it the AP is damaged to the right of the patch where it has begun peeling. I'm conflicted about asking for a replacement since my wife got it for me and wouldn't want me to sell it anyways. If i did send it in how does that work? I doubt I could get the same card since all the others out of /10 I have seen don't have nearly as nice a patch. Does Topps try to get you the same card or one of equal value?

Sorry for all the questions. Still fairly new to the hobby.

In the FAQ there's a short paragraph on adding imagery.

Blowout Cards Forums - FAQ: Reading and Posting Messages (http://www.blowoutcards.com/forums/faq.php?faq=vb3_reading_posting#faq_vb3_attachments)

Or you can open a photobucket account, upload your image there. then cut and paste the link to your post on BO. Either way is pretty simple.

With it's being numbering so low they would most likely replace it with a Peterson auto what they think is equal value. The other option is to call Topps and talk to a manager to see if they would send you something to compensate for the damage on the card. I did that with upper deck on a card I pull I am not sure if Topps will do that but it would not hurt to call and ask. You might have to email them some photos of the damage. The card is unique with that patch on the card they might do something. Congratulations on the great pull

my main hit out of a case of Unrivaled was ding'd. I followed the instructions here:

i hope this helps

i sent in a damaged 2010 topps finest patch auto of Gerald Mccoy and they sent me the same exact card with different numbering and it actually had a better patch. with this card i don't think you can get a better patch than that if the damage is not too noticeable i would say keep it!

Yeah, I will probably keep it. I never have that kind of luck. The only reason I even got the box was because blowout sent it instead of the box of magic I ordered. I can't complain about a nice card out of a box I wasn't even planning on opening. :D
