Has anyone had Topps Million cards shipped to them?

Just wondering what kind of condition the vintage ones come in.

I unlocked this '55 tonight:

I "withdrew" 22 cards on 3/16/10 for a total of $14.05. They shipped via UPS in a 6x9 padded envelope. Each card was in a penny sleeve and inside a top loader, with the exception of the 1953 that was without the penny sleeve (due to size). The condition of the cards we what we pretty much have expected all along. Hit and miss, but mostly miss. They did screw up one card on my checklist. Instead of receiving my 1960 Billy Goodman, they gave me a 1976 #69 Hegan Father & Son card. Yeah... that sucked.

Overall I'm very satisfied with my cards. Especially since I used my own redemption cards pulled from packs, and from trades. I never did buy redemptions on ebay (not that there is anything wrong with that), and I made more than my money back from the 2010 Topps Product. Anyway, here are the pics and scans:

Do you expect PSA 8 examples of these cards?

I know there are some guys on the boards that are really into collecting and trading of these Million card giveaways and I don't want to take away from that. But... If you are already collecting vintage and are expecting to get a card to go into your set or just to upgrade a card, don't expect much. Very low quality cards that are OC, rounded corners, scuff marks and wrinkles seem to be the norm. At least with the ones I received.

I'm sure it's been said before, but these really could be the cards your mother threw out!

After seeing the cards shipped with the first few people on here that got them, I just traded all my cards on the site for modern crap. I sold my contest cards for cash from people that were doing contests as well, and then sold my Strasburg for $350... In all I now have 100+ 1980's Nolan Ryans and some odds and ends like a Jeter RC, I plan to have shipped (free since I have a prize card) and netted $700 in cash.

Topps would have made a better promotion by having some of the cards graded by PSA or Beckett.

Getting those cards in that condition would be comparable to pulling a Strasburg REF Rookie out of Bowman this year, only to find it has a large crease in it from some A&@ Clown searching for jersey cards in the checkout line at Wal Mart

Granted theyre free, but come on, rounded corners, 90/10 centering. Unless you hit a major star, I would rather have the modern junk in mint condition

is there a deadline when you must have the cards shipped to you???? al.

Actually these are the cards our mothers should have thrown out.
