I know they are giving away uncut sheets for titleshot ATM for a give away on unlocked but they never had uncut sheets of round 1 on there..

This must have been removed from the factory or given away at release?  

Would be a scam if this was made in the last few years..

Well, I think his Ebay ID/name says it all:
 

Seller info

 
 
His member id is: marvinscreation
 
I think maybe Marvin created these uncut sheets? Although, I know one of the prizes for the drawings you can enter in the Topps Title Shot unlocked code cards program on Facebook is an un-cut sheet of Title Shot cards...
 
So, I know they have them but, from the sounds of his description he says it one-of-a-kind which also points towards him creating it but he just isnt coming out and saying so... IMO
See my "ULTIMATE FEEDBACK" for a sale/trade list - Mainly collecting & looking for anything of FRANKIE EDGAR -And: Ben Henderson, Diego Nunes, Anthony Pettis, Jake Ellenberger, Phil Davis, & Jose Aldo

Oh God, look at this, a 'gold version,' are they numbered??

Dear pelhamc,

I actually work for a company that did a job for a convience store and the guy who ran the booth was just gonna toss them in the trash but I was actually able to get it from him I also have a gold version of this but im not sure that im gonna be selling that one.

I have been collecting since Round 1 was released and none of these have ever surfaced. The story he sent you is even more ridiculous.

how do you even ship this? roll it up like a poster???? how possibly could there be a gold version? i guess they could have ran a gold version and just ran it without numbers? never heard of these before either

I also messaged him and here's what he said. Still seems very unlikely that they are real IMO.
I'm in blue
He's in red

Dear marvinscreation,

Hello, I am interested in this listing of yours.
I would like to ask you where you got these and how they are uncut?
Thank you,
-Brandon

Dear brandaloo,

The company i work for did a job with convience stores and one of the vendors was just gonna throw these in the trash i asked if i could have them so i took them home

- marvinscreation

Dear marvinscreation,

Really?
A guy who works at a convenience store had some Rd. 1 uncut sheets that he was just going to throw in the trash? It would be very difficult to get these from a business like Topps. So why/how would he be able to get a hold of them and then just want to throw them away.
I'm not trying to be a jerk about this but I'm looking for a little assurance before I make a bid.
Thanks,
-Brandon

Dear brandaloo,

It was a JIFFY MART trade show with different distributors the topps distrbutor was of the people with a booth there we asked could we have them cause he was really just gonna toss em which didnt make any sense to me its up to you I guess to believe me or not but this a very real story sorry if im coming across as a bit of a jerk myself hope this helps ease your mind about bidding anything I can do to help just ask thanks

I used to get tons of uncut topps sheets as a kid as every year my father went to candy trade shows that topps was at.  Topps gave em away. Still have 85 & 86 football sheets tucked away somewhere. That practice is not unusual at all.  The one thing is that rd 1 was Hobby only. Though, these could have been early prototypes that topps had made up before they really knew what they were going to do with the series, and the price point was real low, upon initial release. Theres a good chance that theyre legit. Maybe contact topps if youre considering bidding to see if they did give these away at trade shows?
