Was Going Through Some 2012 Topps WWe Base...

geoffyb · 11-29-2012, 01:33 PM

... and came across this gem. I bought a case when they first came out and it was the most lack luster case I have ever opened until I found this stuck behind a base card when I was sorting through them. Its the one auto in the set that I wanted really bad. I feel like an idiot for not seeing it when I busted the case.

gud thing u didnt get rid of all the base lol congrats very nice card

golfinglegend67 · 11-29-2012, 05:03 PM

Very nice find, I pulled that auto in my case as well. It's a great looking card.

Sick card. I bet your glad you went looking through your base cards now.

geoffyb · 11-29-2012, 06:51 PM

i only grabbed one stack of base out of a random box and it was just there. i am probably going to go through the rest to check it now.

geoffyb · 11-29-2012, 07:42 PM

soooo.....i went through the rest of the base and found a rosa mendes auto. pretty good day finding 2 random overlooked autos.

So then Topps didn't short you on your case. Did you ever do anything with the replacements they sent.

Dude Love is one of my favorites from that set. Looks like sweet auto.

geoffyb · 11-29-2012, 08:34 PM

they didn't short me turns out. i feel like a butt. however, they have shorted me big time in the past. the replacements i just ended up keeping.

Very nice card! Always nice to find a gem inside what you think is a lot of commons. I'm still (patiently) waiting for that to happen to me!

booyahlaw · 11-29-2012, 09:33 PM

You should probably send that Dude Love back to Topps, just to even the playing field with them for the replacement hits

geoffyb · 11-29-2012, 09:40 PM

i think id rather send back the jinder mahal instead haha. id say we are even since i pulled a combined 5 autos out of 2 2011 topps wwe cases.

booyahlaw · 11-29-2012, 09:42 PM

Keep the Mahal--he's a real "up and comer"

Just wanted to quote that since you were all up in arms that Topps had the audacity to send you 2 replacement autographs (not mats or shirts) that weren't up to your standards (

)based on nothing but your word that you were shorted hits (when you weren't).

Greengoblin782 · 11-30-2012, 02:12 AM

Very cool that you found another autograph.

dont forget about the 2 2011 cases that had a total of 5 autos....
and it was still bogus of them to send autos from a bad past product to replace current ones

I did the same thing with a WCW Nitro Topps Chavo Auto...sometimes you just overlook
