2013 ESP Elite NRL Cards Thread (Updated 5/8/13)

[Muzza]

I got myself sorted from a dealer instead of busting boxes.

But my son pointed out the NEW footy cards in the newsagent this afternoon.

Oh the temptation - esp after promising the better half no packet purchases this time. Under no circumstances.

So we bought a blister pack and busted the three packs waiting at the station. No hits, but 2 parallel and 3 common Souths, so we're happy.

And the wife...she just shook her head and told me I was worse than the smackies hiding out the back of the train station. LOL!

That's very harsh of her, surely she has a vice, err I mean hobby?

Jarrad, luck of a chinaman..no good.. 3 boxes & no sig hits.. Sorry...
.
Makes Digeze's other boxes look promising. I have 4 to go & a mates box..
.
Won't tell you i bought 10 pks from The Town Hall RWS Newsagent & pulled a Greg Inglis Sensation , Gold FF Tigers & a Silver FF Eels.
Also 2 x starter pks - nothin spesh..

Nice jags, looks like loose packs are as good a bet as boxes (or better).
Keep those no-hit Digeze boxes coming..........sorry folks, mine will be revealed tomorrow arvo.

Hey guys if you have an album. Have a look on the inside of front section at numbering. See if you see what is wrong with triple threats

 

[bob]

I like the Elite cards they are getting better. I hope they look at the Ratio of Inserts into boxes. Well done

 

[Bronco79]

Just leave the Timmy G Sig #10/130 to me....please! Lol

Hi,

Is it #10 in Tim Grant League Sensations that you are after, cause I plucked a #004/130

My wife thinks that about me but then she helps open and sort them, haha!

Yeah. I remember when we busted 2008 Centenary and she pulled the Beetson sig...went nuts.

Just busted 6 boxes and got 1 gold fast and the furious and that was it. $800 down the drain.

Why didn't you buy a case it would of only cost you an extra $300.00 to $350.00 & you would of got all the hits.

Brought them in 2 different case shares a month apart.

Was originally only going to get 2 boxes but brought up when I thought I was going to get at least 1 major hit a box. Defiantly regret that now.

You know what to do next release Ill probs be saving up for a case next time in advance.

 

[nznrl]

Most people can't buy a case in 1 hit and therein lies the issue. I get the feeling a genuine mistake has been made; surely they haven't intentionally placed double sigs in some boxes and none in the next. I'd guess there has been a mistake in processing. If not...

Love to see a scan of it.....still chasing one!

 

[Tanswell87]

Whoever got the over half of the case of Glenn will be happy because it should just be a hitathon. Also 3 dud boxes out of digeze 3rd case share gone as well.

 

[Trephinator]

Seems like there are double sigs in all boxes that have sigs. Anyone had a box with one sig and not a second?

Huge blunder if unintentional - but I can see the appeal to it now - just makes it more of an all or nothing. Different approach to Select where at least you had a chance of a strong Top Prospect or winning predictor.

Nah its all good Glenn. You always take a risk buying these boxes and I'm sure whoever brought the other half of that case is going to be happy though.
