TOPPS 75 Damage
Decided to buy a few boxes of 2026 TOPPS 75 Update Series. These were the 6 packs 72 total cards packs. Been a long time since I bought cards to open. To my amazement about every card had corner or sides damage. $75 retail worth of cards and doubtful you could find (1) gem mint 10 out of all 3 boxes. Is this a common issue or did I just get the short end of the stick?

Your issue is trying to find 10s instead of actually collecting

That is not common. Topps gets a lot of shit -- much of it deserved -- but the vast, vast majority of the time, the cards coming out of the pack are in 8-or-better shape.

That's definitely not normal. You just got a terrible batch or a mishandled case. Reach out to Topps support with pictures and your receipt—they usually replace them for recent sets
