I just traded for First Run Disrcaft Buzz-GT and on the back of it it has a stamp on it that says Discraft Factory Misprint. What does that mean is it a protype or a factory second? Its a really nice Disc and its in really good shape. I bought a soft banger-gt and love it, so I thought I give try. :)

Another great disc if you can get your hands on one, that has the GT (Groove Top), is the Discraft Slipstream. It is a Super Straight Flying machine. They are not making these anymore, but I love mine. :cool:

Factory misprint means the same as an Innova X-out, the disc should still be a good disc, It is usually in the stamp that causes it to be a misprint. I just bought several off e-bay way cheep compaired to a non-misprint. they seem to fly the same as my others.

yeah i have a few x-out's that are only that way because they are 2Xstamped and they fly the exact same to me. i have one that i got for like 7 bucks and i keep it in my no-throw collection cause it looks so cool, clear wraith that fades from silver then to blue on the rim with a silver champ stamp one direction and a metallic blue 12x KC star stamp the other direction ...

All discraft 'factory seconds' are just cosmetic defects. That is to say a discraft disc that comes out of the mould and is too warped or malformed even to the slightest degree will not make it to the course. A discraft missprint is jsut that. A missprint, typically parts are missing where the hot stamp didnt quite fully stick. It is fairly rare to see a double stamped discraft disc too. The only bad part of a Discraft facorty secnd is hte stamp the disc its self is perfect.

FYI this info is in the Discraft policy and on their website.

Innova does not offer up this sort of information, inviting the question, is my x-out a dodgy disc or a bad stamp. So i never by innova x-outs. but discraft x-outs are a great way to save some wonga.
