For whatever reason, the final pack only included three cards. It makes no sense, as the jersey card in it was a thinner card stock than the Ryan Spooner Materials, and it contained four cards. Many may find it nitpicking, but when you're paying THIS much for THIS few cards, I feel they all need to be there.

I'd love comments with reader thoughts. This product is about $90 a box. So, fire away!
If you shop online and haven't signed up and used ebates yet, you're missing out. I also use it on eBay to get money back from purchases there. Between referrals and cash back, I've gotten over $100 in less than a year. FREE CARDS! If you're on Twitter, please give me a follow. Happy collecting!
That's way too much money for what you get. Not even real photography. I won't be buying a box. You actually get more cards per pack and a much better price point too.
ReplyDeleteLeft off "in retail"
DeleteThe base card design isn't too shabby. Neither is the jersey card. But $90 a box? Seems like it should be priced at about $40 to $50.
ReplyDeleteCalling those Aurum cards as one of the hits is quite the sham.
ReplyDeleteAre all the autos redemptions? If so, that's a bit of a let down for a higher end set.
ReplyDeleteA nice box for a B’s fan with the Krejci and Spooner!
