Default So I Just got Scammed by Prospect Rush.

Well this is what happened. I bought a Redemption for a 2014 draft hobby case from a member who won it in Houdini's Break #6.



I redeemed the case a little while back. I got it today. I open the package and this is what I see.




At this point I am pretty suspicious that the case isn't factory sealed like the redemption stated it was supposed to be. So I email Will. (No response yet) So I decide well lets open the case to see what the boxes look like.





Not 1 box is factory sealed all look like they have been skimmed through. I feel sick in my stomach.. I'm out $600 now. For all those that said Will didn't search boxes to make his packs BLAH BLAH BLAH>> I think this is proof what a scumbag this guy really is. He needs to send me a SEALED Case to make me think any different. I honestly don't even know what to do?

Also he only insured the package for $100 that seems strange to me.

That's terrible! I'm sorry man. Not to back will up because this whole thing has been a scam but I got a sealed case from him. I'd really like to hear his excuse for this one.

Wow. Even more proof that this is the biggest scam released. Hopefully PR can fix this for you. But really, this is just inexcusable on PR's part

Um...did it come from Canada? If so, isn't there a chance that they opened the boxes up in customs?

Good point. Hope this is what happened.

However, if it was in fact opened by Customs and resealed by customs wouldnt there be any tape or paper work indicating it was inspected?

I'm fairly certain he bought the card knowing what it already was.
