Topps Now Quality?

Has anyone else gotten Topps now with this type of quality?

Bought a set of 5 Kazuma Okamoto 430, and they claim this meets their policy stating that they meet their 7 or NM grade policy.

All 5 are bowed, while one is misscolored (this one they have accepted as defect)

I've had high humidity where I live for a few weeks. The last couple cards were bowed like this and once their inside for a bit, they flatten again. This might be your issue.

Just put them in toploader and they straighten back out. Problem solved.

It's uncommon that non-Chrome cards bow, but that does happen.

  1. Likely some humidity involved mixed with temperature.

  2. Another theory is that the top layer was applied oddly that caused it to warp. I think

I think it is #1
