Game Dated Moments

[bwmechtech]

Anyone know or hear if Upper Deck is planning on doing a weekly Game Dated Moments on epack like past years? With the odd season and limited accessibility to the rinks I'm thinking it may be difficult to pull off. I've really enjoyed them in years past however and wondered what the word on the street is about 2021.

It makes a lot of $$$$ for UD, I’m sure it will be back this Friday.

I would also think it will be back, I know the topps now sticker program is already up and running.

$3.99 US per pack plus you have to buy a hockey pack. Let’s say you pick Compendium which is $0.99 US. That’s $5 US to Upper Deck they didn’t have last week. I’m sure printing costs peanuts for these. Oh it will be back lol

Shorter season could mean more likelihood of people like me (who get bored with long drawn-out things) doing it.

Confirmed Game Dated is back. Packs limited to 499 now with 100 gold parallels randomly inserted. These will sell out within minutes like the Presidential packs.

hmm, thats interesting, I wonder what the reasoning behind this is, I suspect most cards last year sold more than 499 copies

I think create more of a buzz perhaps? I think the Ayres game dated from last season sold over 2,000 copies. It sells for about $6 on the secondary market. Imagine it was limited to 499 now.

Nice! Not too sure I like them limiting their numbers however, I usually go for the whole set and I can't get to the computer when they first become available. Glad to hear it's going to continue though!

Alexis game dated sold out in 2 minutes, yikes!

Not sure why UD would change it to this format unless the print runs from the previous years have been really low.

They would have sold way more than 599 copies of Lafrenieres debut. And odds are 60 epack users got all of them. If the limit was 10 per account.

 

[burebuyer]

Limit was 10 per transaction. Some accounts have 25-30 of the Lafreniere.

I completely forgot, and kinda don't care to partake this year now.

Me too. UD just lost my $ for the entire set now.

I like the limitted on most fronts. I love getting gdm that mean something to me, but the cards were worth squat. Even the good ones were worth squat. This at least adds some value to them.

I was lucky and got in right at 12:00 to get mine. I think it's a horrible move now they are numbered though. Now they'll be held ransom for anyone trying to build sets and get the bounty cards. Even with a serial number, they won't be worth much next year. Card #3 of Stutzle sold out as well it looks like.
