Is it just me, or is your triple signature actually a dual?

$20 says they will replace it with a Ralph Sampson / Ramon Sessions dual auto. Yes he forgot to sign it. I'm throwing up.

Sorry for the rough break. I hope when you get your breath back you are writing a nasty e-mail to UD. That "triple autograph" is just terrible....

Westbrook jersey auto /150


That is actually not that bad of a pull, but still that was pretty brutal.

That really hurt. Sorry to see that. The bright side is that it can't possibly get any worse than that...

man, u might as well just forge the signature and sign it. No one would know since there should be an auto there. Well no one would know except everyone here.

Better yet, get creative. Draw a nice picture of something and sell it as super rare.

Why not right? It's UD's fault, not yours. If you want, start a new thread and ask this forum what to draw on it. Perhaps we can come up with something that can get all of your money back and possibly make you a buck or two.

Hahaha, yeah, it would be funny if i write "YOU SUCK UPPER DECK!" in Moncreifs invisible ink auto. Actually I'm thinking of just doing that and keeping it as a momento to remind myself of how pathetic Ultimate is.

If you come up with the right thing to sign, I bet you could make some good money. Heck, you could even get it graded, and then sell it. I'm sure there are a lot of UD haters out there that would buy the "You suck Upper Deck" card.

That's actually a pretty nifty idea! Since you thought of it, I'll give you a 10% royalty for whatever it sells for.

First thing is first, and it would totally ruin this idea if the answer is yes, but does anybody know if good 'ole acetate can rub off any old auto without damaging the card?

I can't answer your question. Sorry.

Also, don't worry about any royalty. Just point us to the auction. That will be a ton of fun to watch. Perhaps Blowout could even list it in their tracker.

I know this is out of my character, but I'm going to give this idea anyway because I loathe UD...

Draw a simple picture on it of two stick people. One bent over taking what the other one is giving him. Label the giver, "Upper Deck". And label the taker, "Customer".

I bet this would sell for a substantial premium. Especially if you described in detail why this card is the way it is. Because UD screws their customers all the time.

It's a money maker. I'm telling you.

If you don't want to do it, I will. Seriously...I hate them sob's.

You also could create a new ebay user id to keep your current one in good standing for all the insane UD lovers that will be blocking you.

Il'll be working on this starting tomorrow. In all honestly I was going to give up collecting after my two cases of Exquisite which I already pre-ordered, so my 100% feedback & the fact that UD lovers will probably block me won't be a problem. This is going to be fun!

Thanks wheeler, you are making my kick in the nuts feel just a little bit better!
