CSP- A little dissappointed

[mark293]

I finally received my CSP and it came in the  World MasterCard version. To tell you the truth, the whole metal card thing is overrated. Its just a plastic card with a metal ring.

I think it is a pretty sweet looking card.  But it isn't a metal card in the vein of Amex Centurion or Chase Palladium.  Or even Chase Ritz from what I understand.

I happen to like mine and get compliments all the time. Sorry you were disappointed.

Yea I like mine as well. Although while we are being negative, it is a bit darker in color than I thought it would be.

Overrated is a subjectve matter versus true/false.  I like the World MC CSP.  As with any subjective matter, YMMV.

No, it is a layer.  You're confusing what you can see with what is actually there.

I have two versions, the "pseudo-metal" one and the plastic one.  I use the "metal" one when I have it in my posession at all times (don't get me wrong it is nice & sleek but sometimes gets the wrong attention)...granted it's not the Palladium, Centurion or the Ritz-Carlton ...so, the plastic one comes out to play when it's gonna be handled by people (i.e. restaurants or whatnot) this way folks are not frothing at the mouth, taking pictures or seeing if it can be flinged at the wall like a ninja star or whether it can slice a tomato.

Can it slice a Tomato?

I am not saying it isnt a nice card, but the way people were stating it weighs like a brick, is just untrue. If I was going on aesthetics alone, my fav would be PRG chipped, Just mho.
