Laughable 2008 SP Authentic Break
 
Laughable because I am crying on the inside...

I went to an LCS and picked up a box of SP Authentic for fun. I will only list the hits (scans included):







So what do you think?

I got no rookies, no auto's. A number of packs only contained 3 cards. One pack had just 2 filler cards in it. And as a bonus, some of the cards were heavily creased. I know there were shorted boxes/cases, but I had never heard of anything this bad.

It's ok to cry....it lets the sad out of you. And after that...you must have alot of sad inside....I am sorry, that is boderline criminal what they did to you.

How they can mess up this bad I will never understand. Better luck next time. Talk about kick in the junk.

Sounds like a repackaged box designed to discourage people away from the hobby to me, aka Upper Deck.

hojer05 07-16-2009 12:47 PM

I assume you have contacted UD about your wonderful experience with their company!! I would request a new box hand delivered by a UD Rep, then when he gives it to you, return the favor and kick him in the junk.

I checked the website and this set was released in January. So I am technically still within 8 months/a year of release. So, a nice little letter is being sent to Carlsbad (I find letter writing to be a little more productive than calling them).

I had the same thing happen to me a few weeks ago from a box I got at a show. Nothing but 12 decoy cards.

If I hadnt seen it come out of a sealed case, I would have sworn it was re-packaged.

By the way, UD did nothing for me.

oldgoldy97 07-16-2009 01:16 PM

That box was sick, and they say laughter is the best medicine.

Nice stuff dude!!! Check my bucket!!:eek:

rjchen 07-16-2009 01:38 PM

Seriously i just broke a box SPA yesterday, granted I got 2 hits of scrub autos. I didn't get any patch auto, 2nd time this has happened.

Ouch that sucks!

RSNARIZONA 07-16-2009 03:46 PM

".....[B][I]One pack had just 2 filler cards in it[/I][/B]...."

Those were your two hits!
Take a sharpie....write 1/1 on them and send them to the 'bay and list them as "UD SP Authenitic Football 1/1 error blank back ....AND Front" :)!

brutal....just brutal....hang in there!

YOUR not gaurenteed a patch auto in a box. Your gaurenteed 3 autos, which I know is actually false. I just want them to send me some autos, patches or not.

[SIZE="5"][B]ATTENTION EVERYONE WHO WAS SHORTED IN THIS THREAD.... CALL UPPER DECK, COMPLAIN AND AT LEAST [SIZE="7"]TRY[/SIZE] TO GET SOMETHING GOOD.[/B][/SIZE]

This has been a public service announcement.

Mizzurawar 07-16-2009 07:42 PM

This is why I take vids of every box I open. If I get punched in the shillings by the man at upperdeck. I can send the vid and tell them YOU CAUSED MY ENDLESS PAIN AND ANGUISH!
P.S. Upper Deck
Please send me one blank check so that I may regain the cost of my sh**ty hobby purchase! DO IT NOW SUCKA!

Sorry this happened to you

ibleedgreen 07-16-2009 10:00 PM

HAHAHA this thread is great.

packers04 07-17-2009 04:14 PM

Been waiting 6 months for a redemption from ud and yea i feel about the same as all you guys feel about upperdeck

sportster2827 07-17-2009 06:42 PM

You can bet your ars that if this happened to me. I would have someone's @!#%@ in the tight ninja grasp of my fingers. I guarantee I would have a new box at my doorstep very soon. I would call them 10 times a day have a letter in the mail EVERY day until I got one of the best hot boxes ever put together. I might even go as far as having the family lawyer give them a couple of calls. Pure, grade A, 100% Angus bull#^&% would be tattooed on the behind of Mr. Upper Deck himself.....I'm pissed off just reading about how bad these people are.:mad:

Mizzurawar 07-18-2009 10:50 AM

Hey Upper Deck!!! *Waves* Remember the 5 Obama and 1 favre redemptions I sent you?!?!? Are you going to actually send my cards after a year of having them on your desk or are you going to crack open your big vault and pay me back money you owe me for the useless redemption cardboard I purchased ?!?!

Love Always *Snicker*
Mizz

P.s. I've taken all your employees cats as collateral!

bjtheman1 07-21-2009 12:16 PM

wow, that's just crazy. Sorry to hear that.

For some reason 2008 SPA has been bad to me, my last 2 boxes yielded crap. One of my scrub auto's wasn't even autographed. I don't even think I had 3 hits in each box either :(

MasterPattie 07-21-2009 03:29 PM

Dude, Upper Deck gave you an upper decker for sure:(
