Hockey Cards - Part III

[The Kingslayer]

Are they selling at $300 a box if you're on the list? I might skip series 2 if that's the case...

Yah basically $300 a box if your on the list but thats the price per box for the case. I dont know what it is for just a box. My buddy paid $2400 in advanced in December and went to the shop and had to drop another $1260. $3843 Tax in. Insane.

This seems like complete BS to me.

Yah its BS for real. All over Bedard who wont be anywhere close to McDavid, Crosby etc.

Some hits from 4 boxes I picked up from the LCS today. Got pretty lucky, all things considered. Picked up a Voronkov clear cut and Carlsson YG on eBay to round it out. That’ll be enough of the series 2 bonanza for me.

I know it isnt the case but it almost feels like its illegal or should be illegal.

So many people are going to lose money on S2. I’ll happily sit this one out at these prices. Any singles I need I’ll get once it all settles down

Even better, join the Opeechee army and grab all the rookies.

Just got a shipping notice! Both my cases of Series 2 tins are being fulfilled and on the way!

Uh..oh... the plot thickens. Only one case shipped. The other has a shipping label but has not been picked up.

$250 per box. You made out like a bandit today. Shitty results but those are discount prices. Guys were legit offering $5000 for cases today and getting turned down.

ya that's why I don't feel too bad about it lmao.... the perks of going to the same hobby shop for ~20 years

Cheapest I've heard of today was $175 cad tax in for a hobby box in New Brunswick.

$175 is what I was thinking back in October. Then I saw the rumored price of $400 and laughed....well I was wrong and my bank account crying.

Tins are $60 now. Insane. But I fell off the wagon and bought one. I will open it later tonight or tomorrow and see how the dice roll.

Ok question. I just pulled a bedazzled young gun of Connor. How much do you think it is worth

Check eBay for comps. I bet its selling for alot right now. Good time to sell unless you PC Bedard or some

 

[Bondurant]

All of the packs inside the tin were crumpled. Luckily none of the cards were damaged but bad look from UD. Four YG's: Kartye, Balinskis, Poitras and Bedard/Carlsson checklist. Latter might pay for the tin.

The first step is admitting you’re powerless.

 

[Team_Spirit]

Well played, upper deck.

 

[frightenedinmatenum2]

If prices weren't marked up at the distribution or retail level, the boxes would be cleared out by resellers.

The only way to avoid the above would be UD properly assessing the demand, or making the product exclusive to ePack where it would be difficult for someone to resell a box.

$60 for a tin is still a better value when you consider the top Young Guns is going for 1000 CAD+ versus past years where a lower price tin might net you a $100-$200 YGs.

There are a lot on Facebook, even if you're not a user it is worth subscribing just for some of them.

I can list you a ton but I’m in the states. Personally I’m a huge fan of the Canadian based group, Average Joe’s Sports Cards and Collectibles. The admin is Josh who’s from BC himself. Breaks are always a riot and it makes Them fly.
