Maybe it's just me but typically I don't keep the wrappers of things I buy. That turkey sandwich for lunch? I threw away the wrapper. My brand new TV? I threw away the wrapper and the box it came in. I would have never in a billion years saved the wrapper from a pack of cards, but evidently that's exactly what Topps expected you to do with their '10 Bowman Chrome cards. For every 18 wrappers you return to them, they send a 5 pack of black bordered parallel cards. What a joke. That's so funny I forgot to laugh and I bought none of the product. If I had bought a couple boxes or a case or two of said product, I might be inclined to burn the whole lot of 'em. This has left such a sour taste in my mouth about collecting that I'm seriously giving thought to giving up collecting/never buying another Topps product.
Who was the genius who thought that giving Topps exclusivity to MLB licensed cards was a good idea for the hobby? Shame on you sir/madam
