AH YES... The infamous Card Bender. You can probably see a scalper coming a mile away. BUT.. Can you see the CARD BENDER?? Even the Batman has a hard time finding the CARD BENDER because it's not 1 person, it's not only in 1 city, it's not always the same store!!! Trust me if I saw a Card Bender (Excluding kids and women) and saw the act happening.. I might give them the Fist-to-Mouth Technique.

if you found those "damaged" cards in your store, consider yourself lucky. at least those employees don't keep them for themselves or for others. so why would they bother jacking it up if they can make fast cash with undamaged cards.

I have opened about 10-12 cases of wave 9 and 5 out of all of them were extremely damaged!! I mean multiple bends and creases, the cases itself was untouched by damage. So there are cases of bent up cards straight from the factory. Just thought I would throw that bit of info out there.

I have no problem at all with card benders. At least they're on the shelf to buy then.
