2007 Heritage Tampered Box at Target

Just bought a Blaster box of 2007 Heritage at Target. The outer wrapper was Topps but had a slit in it. All the boxes they had were this way and since I have never bought a heritage blaster I thought the MAYBE this is how they are sold. I got home and the inside of the box had 1 pack of baseball and 6 packs of 2006 Football Heritage. I decided to open a few packs... The football packs had 2001 Topps baseball cards and the baseball pack had basketball cards in it.

I took it back to Target and they accepted the return without hesitation. The young girl working the returns desk said "let me guess, there were basketball cards inside". I guess they know about this but there are at least 5 more boxes sitting on the shelf.

I went to the local card shop and bought some supplies with the returned money... a little mad at packs today. I might just hold off on retail stuff for awhile. I have a case of A&G waiting for me in July image

  • Sounds like someone figured a way to switch packs out--either brashly in the store or by purchasing them and returning them quickly. I stopped buying packs/boxes from Target because it seemed every time the packs/boxes looked like they were searched--pretty obvious when the 'premium packs that were cardboarded looked like someone pressed something against them to find out what was inside.
    Next MONTH? So he's saying that if he wins, the best-case scenario is that he'll be paying for it two weeks after the auction ends?

    Forget blocking him; find out where he lives and go punch him in the nuts. --WalterSobchak 9/12/12
