what should I be paying for these boxes? - in BC

[delacroixandora]

hey guys, i'm just looking for some info, looked a little bit online, but wanted to get a more hands on feedback.

i'm in BC, and i'm going to be down in chilliwack for awhile here soon. basically, i very rarely bust boxes, but i've gotten an itch to recently, and there are a few products that interest me, i'd just want to get an idea of what i should be paying. i'm not looking for the cheapest, just a general ballpark that is decent..

the upper deck products:

sp authentic - 05/06, 06/07, 07/08
ud black - any year, i probably won't go with this, however i love the look of some of their sets.
ud cup - mainly 05/06 and 06/07, possibly 08/09 and 07/08
sp game used - not sure what year, probably 05/06 forward for priority, not too familiar with this product yet..

or any other suggestions of what might offer a good bang or excitement factor while busting..

for ITG, again i don't know much, but i love some of the products i've seen, like the memorabilia ultimate, some of the between the pipes stuff is just stellar, i like some superlative...


any thoughts and price suggestions.. ?

06/07 SPA You should be able to get this for around $150 and it offers great bang for your buck with up to 6 autos combining the 05/06 and 06/07 series. Most Cup tins will be overpriced at $400-$500 and will most likely be the duds from the cases. SPGU is very hit or miss and I would avoid at all costs. BTP would also be a decent break. Good luck!

Drive out of the 'Wack when you get the chance and head 20 minutes east to Abbotsford and see Jason at Abby Sports Cards. I'd say get in touch beforehand though so he can bring in what you want.

It's a shame you won't be here this weekend for the big show...maybe in April?

i get down there april 2nd hopefully, and i have a 7 week commitment starting april 11th, so, i guess very early june i head back..

another question.. are there any recommended online stores for canada with solid prices? i remember someone on here awhile back raved about an ebay store, out of either quebec or nova scotia with solid prices and reliable shipping, and i even remembering checking their prices at the time and thinking, hmm, not bad.. does this ring a bell at all?

i would probably end up going with between the pipes, i would just wonder which year would be the best bet to get a box of, i'll have to research the checklists..

and if anyone knows where i'd be able to get a box of the Tough Customer product from 05/06, please tell me, i'd LOVE to open that

Contact Derek (burebuyer) for that ... he brought some of it for some shows earlier last year and we were buying them up.

I can't answer your other question though...I don't really shop online for wax
