Mysterious Misprint Booster With Red Stripe?

Post by dragsamou » Fri Apr 27, 2007 1:04 pm

While opening a Darksteel Booster Box just now,in the middle of the Box,there was that Booster with a Red Stripe.I did get Only 6 Foils in that Box(4 Commons and 2 Uncommons),so I presume that either a Foil Rare or a Foil Uncommon may be inside.I have no ideas about what happen to this booster with the red stripe.Any Members have some clues?

Your link doesn't work. Evidently PowerNine.com doesn't permit direct links to its pictures.

I just show the placeholder. Right-clicking -> Show Image also doesn't bring it up. I pulled the URL from the source (http://www.powernine.com/cardimages/RedTape_S.jpg) and tried it alone. It gave me the message that no such address exists. When I then backed up the directory tree, PowerNine immediately redirected me to their eBay store. I'm thinking either they or my wireless ISP is blocking the link. Glad to see others aren't having the problem.

No, the cards inside will NOT have the red stripe.

I'm pretty sure that the red tape is just a tape they use for something. I happen to have a pack that had it on the outside, and those two cards that must have picked it up on the sheet before the sheet was cut.

Note that the pack was Onslaught, and the cards were Darksteel.

The pack in that picture is still sealed.

I was not present when the two cards in the picture were opened. I do not know if the rest of the commons from that pack also had red tape on them.

Don't know if anyone cares, but I found another one.
