6 Box Case of 15/16 Cup

[FuriousD82]

I opened this on release date and I am still a bit sore. I placed everything but the Base up on ebay. If you want to see photos of anything specific, check my ebay. Everything except for one card (Parayko exquisite) is up for auction ending sunday night, December 11. Here is a link Please bid early and often as I definitely need to re-coup my huge loss here. I havent had time to list the Base, but they are for sale.

Quick review: Disappointed. No amazing patches, no big rookies, Holly Holm show, nothing striking as far as veteran content. The big hits being the Lemieux Stick is boring, but the Quad Patch is cool. But not sure on value wise. Worst part is, hit two Oiler RAPS not named McDavid. What a tease. Also too many Hurricane and Senator Rookies. Just hurt after this one. Only one 1/1 and its of a 14/15 Rookie who is struggling his *** off; and its a plate anyway (Duclair)! Also, I still believe all older Cup content should not count towards hits. Its Mike Gartner. Ugh.

Scary thing is that case is wayyyyyyyyyy better than some that I have seen.

I'd be so pissed to get a non-hockey card in a pack carrying this price tag, but then again we know they are there going into it, so it is on us.

Hopefully you get some decent bidding wars going and it is enough to keep you around until this monopoly disaster is over.

Overall the case wasn't too bad. Obviously no home run. But the Quad Tag /2 is actually a really nice hit. Probably fetch you more then some Cup Gretzky auto me thinks. Too bad the Lemieux stick booklet was autographed.

Some nice cards in here. Thanks for sharing ! Hoping you can get some good sales.

Except for a few lucky folks, the majority of wax busters are left with some garbage for the $ spent. The quad is very nice...the rest MEH.... However, the quads definition of "Tag" seems to be pretty loose. I see 1 tag and three patches. Oh well, there is always next time.

This entire product (like most of UD's 2015-16 releases) is a huge kick in the junk unless you hit a McDavid. Price point is out of control and value just isn't there. I took one in the teeth too but the good news is it made me reassess my strategy moving forward. UD is only catering to group breakers now

 

[yzerberg]

Ouch.... it happens more often then not nowadays...

 

[oasis]

that was not as bad of a break as you think. maybe not crazy good but just curiuos what that holly holm sold for?

 

[JayKayZee]

I can totally see the *OUCH* factor, but it is honestly better than most of what I've seen.

 

[FuriousD82]

Thanks everyone for the look/words of support. I ended up getting a strong deal on the case, so it wasn't as bad as it could have been. Thank you also to those bidding on items ending tonight.
