zombiepromking Posted August 26, 2009 Report Share Posted August 26, 2009 Okay so has anyone ever bought a 5D's booster pack and gotten one of these pretty little blank sheets of cardboard with a plastic bar code tab on it with a strip of foil on it? I have, and it's f[:x]cking annoying you pay $3.95 to $4.95 for these packs and then they cheat you out of a card, they cheat you out of a common nonetheless but still you pay money for 9 or 10 cards and you get these sick little pieces of cardboard sh[:x]t!! I understand that this is done to thwart scalers but they shouldn't cheat us out of a card they should make packs that are made with a bit of surplus foil on the lip on the back of the booster. So discuss this nuisance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zombiepromking Posted August 26, 2009 Author Report Share Posted August 26, 2009 Are you referring to this? Can't you just send a complaint e-mail? No. They are pieces of cardboard with a bar code tab on it and a piece of foil in the bar code tab. I'm pretty sure that they are meant to thwart scalers but it isn't a very good way of doing it.

Anyways, you can legally complain anyways since they did not give you what was claimed to be sold. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iAmNateXero Posted August 26, 2009 Report Share Posted August 26, 2009 They are forr the win. At the Phantom darkness Sneak peak I packed a DAD and inside of the pack was a blank white card.

DesCrow Posted August 26, 2009 Report Share Posted August 26, 2009 I'm pretty sure they do, besides, to throw off scalers I think they pack in extra rares (that's what they do to me >=D )But they give free packs for Print Run Tests, so why not your card?

zombiepromking Posted August 26, 2009 Author Report Share Posted August 26, 2009 Doodz! Don't you understand?? Those cards are MISTPRINTS and are worth A LOT OF MONEY! Omgomg! So security devices meant to stop people from walking off with cards are worth loads of moneys nao? (Which is actually pointless cause most people OPEN the packs before they walk off with them and most people steal structure and starter decks anyways. There are just mountains of opened Starter and Structure decks at wal-mart sometimes.) Well, i feel dumb if that's the truth. But if you're talking about those print tests those aren't worth carp and neither are cards in the wrong rarity. But cards that are like the Chaos Neos with Rainbow Dragon as its name or the goblin attack force with a level star where the earth attribute should be are worth cash out the ass.

OmegaWave Posted August 26, 2009 Report Share Posted August 26, 2009 This happened to me a couple times. One time for my birthday, my neighbor bought me a Duelist Genesis Booster and a Crimson Crisis Booster.....for whatever random reason. Anyway, I got ripped off in the Duelist Genesis Booster. It only had 4 cards in it! The 5th card was the white card. But it turned out to be one of the Double Rare packs. I got a Rare Shield Warrior and an Ultimate Rare RDA....so I didn't complain much.
