I just cracked an awesome box of Zendikar. 5 fetch lands (one a foil misty rain forest) Day of Judgment, Lotus Cobra and a revised Badlands in the same pack! Not to mention I had a bunch of other awesome rares as well. However, 2 of my Fetchlands, a Blood Chief Ascension, and 'sigh' my Lotus Cobra were destroyed! All of the cards have the same markings on them and My Cobra wa actually peeling in half! I tried to email wizards customer service but for some idiotic reason the page will not load up! What advice can you give me?
Try emailing again from a different browser or try to find customer service phone number. (You'll have to wait until tomorrow to call.) In all likelihood they will offer you some sort of compensation, but it might just be new packs.

some of the token cards in the booster packs i've opened have these weird, mechanical bends in the corners, they are all perfectly alike, I saw it in one of my commons as well, forget which one
but man, you're rares are ruined.. that really sucks
Asking out a girl is like trying to cast a first turn Necropotence. Sometimes the other player will have the Force of Will to say no. You shouldn't let that stop you from trying it.
I saw a problem with damaged cards in my third box. I used it for a booster draft, which I judged. I traded my friends who drafted after the draft was over, and a few of the rares from the packs had what looked like slight play-wear marks on the top and bottom. Almost as if they'd been shuffled a little too roughly, but they looked like that right out of the pack. It's not too noticeable, and it's nonexistent on the back, but it still bummed them out a bit.
I will try and upload some pics tonight after work. If it was a couple of jank rares I wouldn't care about getting some packs but I went through 3 boxes and that was my first Lotus Cobra lol.
You know, I opened a Lotus Cobra and a revised badlands in the same pack a week ago. That's pretty wierd. My cobra was not damaged though. Also, depending on what you mean by damaged, collectors would pay extra for a card like that.

Jacerator is an aggro deck - it just wins by attacking the library, it doesn't really control the board other than to play a few Fogs
I opened a fat pack and most of the packs had slight bend marks on the upper right corners and had white wear marks on the flat edges on the top almost as if they were played prior to being packaged. Thankfully my Verdant Catacombs (the ONLY good rare I pulled) was unscathed.
I will get some images up ASAP to show you guys. Sorry for the delay on that, I have so much paperwork it never seems to end.......maybe I can get on the Pro Tour! Not with my skills LOL!

Here we go. Keep in mind that I have 2 fetchlands and a a few other cards with the same issue.

For the customer service problem, you need to register and post on the wizards boards about that.
I've had the peeling in half problem before. For some reason, the card wasn't fully glued together. I actually got some cards that had no front at all and just that back half you say when it peeled up. If it weren't for the other markings, I'd say you could get good money for it.

I'm going on record right now and stating that before the end of 2012 we will see foil dual lands in booster packs (The real, Alpha dual lands). You can quote me on that.

P.S what's that weird stuff under cobra's pic? Looks like green/black slate 0.o
Poor Cobra!
I think that's the stuff on the inside of the cards-under the picture layer.
That sucks dude. I would DEFINITELY email WOTC about this. That's a $25+ card right there, and you got screwed on that...I feel bad for you. Good luck!
Note that if you've got a problem getting the website to work for you, call up their customer service line. They should be able to handle everything there.
Cards with the post 8th Edition, color shifted and future shifted templates as well as the timeshifted and Coldsnap reprint ones tastes a little sweeter. Any gold cards with the old faces are a little saltier. European foreign (except Russian) cards with the mentioned templates above are not as sweet as their English counterparts and has a wierd after taste. All taste tests were done from fresh packs and all cards tasted are not foil cards. I have yet to taste Asian and Russian cards.
The only thing I worry about is how long it would take for wizards to take care of the issue and I don't think living in Korea is going to speed things up lol! I will give them a call.
Thanks for the advice everyone I will keep you guys posted.
Peace
