The ones without Adam's signature are actually more collectable.
Think about it.
Or, the ones WITH his signature are more collectible, as there are less of them, and thus more valuable.

I received my order today as well, they were all intact and in good shape, included all objects but 1 copy of mine is missing Adam's signature as well. Â Very ignorant question, but how do you use the USB stick? Â I felt like I was going to break the thing when I was looking at it. Â Doesn't have the same connector as a standard USB stick.

Definitely get in touch with the Toolband store. Â They actually have a pretty good record of putting shit like this right, though it's not always a quick response. Â The missing signature may actually turn out to be a blessing in disguise.

It just swings out. I thought it disconnected completely too.

Thanks guys. Â I had a bizarre thought that maybe the missing signature is the "golden ticket", very unlikely but a guy can hope right! Â How do you embed a photo in your post? Â Sorry, new to forums.

The Golden Certificate is a replacement for the certificate of authenticity. Â I'm pretty sure if you'd won it there'd be no doubt that you had!

Yeah, my real hope is that I can send it back and have it signed and maybe get a little else with it.

Upload the picture somewhere like
http://imgur.com
Once you'd done that (presuming you've used imgur) select the Direct Link (should be something like
http://i.imgur.com/cCDn2x4.jpg).
Click the button in the toolbar that looks like a tree, and in the Image URL for paste the Direct Link.

Images from the past is like a hemorrhoid, there is usual a irritating piece of shit associated with it.

Have you checked the other side?

Doesn't have "2013" on it either.
I hope you won't try to sell that in the future, because there is a good chance people will think it's a fake.

so I bought version one and five. I sold version 5 on ebay and was going through everything in both of them. I noticed the COA on my version one has the following seal. did I fucking win? or does my version 5 just not have a seal and should. I assumed there would be some sort of golden something in there or I am taking it too literal. does everyones COA have this seal on it?

I would think it'd be bit more obvious. Like "YOU'VE WON!" or something.

What?
". . . each variation contains a different image on the novelty USB card . . ."
So, does that mean ON the physical USB, or a file?
How has no one plugged in their USB yet?

They don't have anything on them. Someone plugged theirs in earlier.

I plugged in 1 USB and there was nothing on it. Â I'll check my COA's and see if they are the same. Â Are you talking about the embossed seal?

Boss, the USB is a thick plastic card with an image physically printed on it. Â Each Variation has a different image on the actual physical disk, thats all.

Interesting that DC's autograph is silver as well. Â That would definitely be getting called a fake in the Ebay thread.

Its partly the lighting, I bought 12, I am a collector and got some for my friends who weren't in ToolArmy or outside of the country, they are in rows organized by version, DC on the 3 Versions 1's seems kind of silver in general.
The one not signed by Adam, that DC looked silverly is the bottom left.

Thank you Hellboy! !! It definitely was me and let me tell you; my heart hit my gut when I seen it. If it wasn't removed, I was going to leave this site and revoke my donation. Guess it's time to delete my old myspace. Don't ever think of those things, yanno? Didn't ever think that someone would ever do something like that either. What a jerk-off.
I can see you met the wonderful Tyson already. He has a way of making new members feel right at home, but at least it didn't take you too long to figure him out.
I'm curious to all those that have received these already if they were all TA orders or if any of these were from the public sale?

Mine were all TA Orders

Oh. What a wasted opportunity. They could've done something really cool with the storage on a USB.
