I also bought a minicase of Legendary Cuts !

Now somebody bought the other minicase and pulled a cut of some whozit..and the 20th anniversary GU so Im thinking OK..

The other minicase has a Cut auto
a regular auto
and a mystery cut redeemer right..

Spend the 700 to get the minicase

spent lunchtime trying not to vomit in my car!

NO CUT
NO AUTO
Shorted 3 dual Jerseys

Thank the lord that I did pull the mystery cut or I mightve headed for the nearest rock quarry..

BUT WAIT...

And this wound was completely self inflicted!

Remember for weeks now I have been advising AGAINST Razor Ink ARchives..

Well I didnt practice what I preached and I got Shawn to order me a case!

sad.gif sad.gif

Case #144/299

Holy HOSE JOB Batman

I got multiple duplicates of whozits and 2 bit role players who are probably working at McDonalds now!

My two memorable hits from 60 packs..

kevin Sorbo who I think played Xena or something but it wasnt from that TV show

and Bill Goldberg the wrestler on a Looney Tune card as Mr. Smith..

AND REPEAT THIS WITH ME

IT IS THE SINGLE WORST PRODUCT I HAVE EVER OPENED IN MY ENTIRE 40 + YEARS OF COLLECTING!

AND WAS A GREAT WAY TO FROST MY BURNT CAKE!

To be honest these packs may set in the boxes for awhile as I dont know that I can stomach looking at them again for sometime!

to put it in dollars and sense

and Ill use this quote from stlbaseball15 who said this about me on the political forum..

"I spent close to the GNP of some third world country..."

today

and got back a bowl of rice that would feed a party of one for breakfast!

Are you completely sure they're all whozits? Just because you hadn't heard of them doesn't mean they're not popular. Inkworks has a lot of autos of folks I've never heard of that command top-dollar. Way too many sci-fi shows for me to keep track of.

All I can say is, "Whoa!!" in my best Lawrence impersonation. Sorry to hear about this beating. Better go look in the floor safe to make yourself feel better.

UD probably won't make good on the missed hits as it was only half the case. Did the other guy video his half? Man totally brutal and I will completely withhold any Razor bashing as it appears you did enough of it yourself.

Thanks for sharing the bad with the good. Puts things in perspective.

My card collection has been put on hold, I pick up vintage cards from time to time, but overall I collect Music Memorabilia now. I am an avid Custom Print Guitar Pick collector now, so if you have any, let me know.

Yeah, Steve, I would like a complete list of the Ink autos.. Kevin Sorbo played Hercules on Hercules the Legendary Journeys, and he was also the lead in Roddenberry's Andromeda. That's a nice auto, imo.

as I don't own the domain, have that blog, or rip much wax these days.

This seems to happen every time you spend an amount I could only dream about spending on cards on one box...so why do you continue to do it? Do you really have that much disposable income?
