Fleer Retro thoughts so far

This is the reason some collectors are MORONS!!!

How greedy can you be to buy 3 cases?

That's not what this hobby is about.To me anyway.

Why would you spend that kind of cash?

The guy could've got one amazing box in that lot and evened out. Or just bought one box in total and hit something awesome.

I laugh at people like this that then complain they did'nt hit anything great.

he's a moron because he bought 3 cases?
he's a moron because he has the cash to do it?

if he can afford it then why shouldnt he buy more.....he might just like busting boxes............WHO ON HERE DOESNT LIKE TO BUST BOXES OR OPEN PACKS?

theres a thing called tall poppy syndrome son..... - ya try to cut down or bitch about people who have more or have acheived more than you.

f-cking amazing the amount of bitchiness that goes on here....
 
I had 5 cases ordered but got cut back to 2... :( I would've bought 5, but I am a moron ;)

I have cases Verse, but you don't want to know what they are worth.. lol

This stuff is completely sold out at a distributor level and while these prices hold up for the PMG's the standard box price has every right to be very high.

Arguably you have twice as much chance of hitting a card worth $1k than an exquisite box. Even a Rose rc exquisite auto is worth less than some of these PMG's and Exquisite is $2k per box... so this stuff is probably UNDER priced.... just sayin.
 
Over hyped....yeah this product is hot right now, and pmgs are going for a mint...but they are only riding the cotails of former products, the pmgs arent even a large set, forty cards as opposed to 97/98, and 08/09 which had a hundred plus, some of these cards with the black and white imposed pictures look like crap! because of the delay on this product and everyone was scratching their heads and talking about it, and whether it would surface, it will be over priced for a while, i suppose the other thing is how many cases were produced? we will all whinge about the price, but we are the stupid ones that will still buy it!!!...AUTOS in this product are a massive let down, if it wasnt for the pmgs...it would have fallen flat completely...i refuse to pay anymore than three hundred a box, becasue the value disappears past this surely!!! YEAH you could pull a card worth a 1K OR two, but you could pull no pmgs, have seen boxes with none, six no name autos and a leonard noyz boyz and james worthy golden touch...busting is a risk i suppose!
 
HK via BO apparently



"From my experience and observation I can say PMG are 1:box Flair showcase 1:box
There are 9000 total showcase cards
There are 8400 total PMG cards

I know some will hit more than 1:box because of QC, but lets keep it as 1:box

So then; ~9000 boxes / 6 = 1,500 total cases or 180,000 total packs

Moreover;

Fleer 1961/62 1:100 Packs 10 cards 180 of each
Fleer 1986/87 1:20 Packs 15 cards 600 of each
Fleer 1987/88 1:10 Packs 20 cards 900 of each
Fleer 1988/89 1:5 Packs 25 cards 1440 of each
Golden Touch 1:180 Packs 15 cards 66 of each
A Cut Above 1:144 Packs 25 cards 50 of each
Noyz Boyz 1:144 Packs 25 cards 50 of each
Big Men on Court 1:180 Packs 15 cards 66 of each
Competitive Advantage 1:144 Packs 20 cards 62.50 of each
Metal Championship Hardware 1:90 Packs 15 cards 133 of each
Intimidation Nation 1:180 Packs 35 cards 28.5 of each
Ultra Court Masters 1:90 Packs 25 cards 80 of each
Ultra Stars 1:180 Packs 25 cards 40 of each
 
TBH, I think the cards look pretty nice. And I don't mind the college uniforms, I think it gives the card a better affect, as you don't see them often.

What's the story behind these yellows? did Barney leave them in his donut king store window to long, do they fade like shit even if kept in storage without seeing sunlight? is it best to use a UV Ultra pro magnet case? or is it's fate to end up like a piss color?

Mine came a bit yellow, might be even more yellow now. :(

WOW! can't believe the heated posts on this topic lmao
For Aussies this is a fantastic release because there is no redemption card in every pack. Some Panini products can be quite a turn off because of all the redemptions.
I'm not a big fan of all that college or some of the retro(don't get me wrong, some retro I love).
The pmg's look sweet, must see in hand.
 
who freakin cares what the entire product is like.....sometimes it can be one insert set that drives THE WHOLE PRODUCT!!!!

and not to mention the 23 jordan auto 1/1's.....

this product is a winner in my eyes......lets see if you can locate any boxes in 12 mths time

Wow, good work dude, you definitely did'nt come off as a moron then.

I was replying to a post by Adam about value in the boxes.

This guy said he did'nt get value.

He got 20 PMG's in total and is complaining as if his break was awful!!!!

Unfortunately, just because you buy 3 cases, does'nt give the card gods reason enough to send the best cards your way.

No tall poppy syndrome here, I have better things to spend money on than just cards. Good on him, I hope he's rich, he obviously is. I don't wish the guy bad at all.

Achieved more than me? Why coz he spends more on cards? Wake up parrot.

If I died tomorrow I'd die a happy man.

Think you need to take those anger pills that you were prescribed.

I've been one of the very few who rated Fleer Retro, it'll be interesting to see who eats their words as it continues to go up in price and some more awesome cards come out.

Again, wake up parrot.
 
lets not get into a squibble here mate, its ok, you know what you wrote and i know what i wrote, let leave it at that shall we.......no harm done
 
The Jordan buybacks alone make the product a winner, Michael Jordan, Bulls, on card, 1/1 autographs- does not get better.

You'r spot on. I've been saying that since before it came out. What a draw Jordan 1/1's are.

Love that Total 0 just out.

There has been some crazy negativity about the product but there's alot of great stuff in there.

People are whining about the pics but it is called Retro. Alot to like about this thing.

Others are whining about the autos, have'nt alot of people been complaining about too many autos these days and where are the inserts?

Well here they are.
