I honestly expected alot more, Great to see it going to a good cause,

BUT SHOULD HAVE BEEN PUT IN PACKS LIKE EVERY OTHER CARD!

The card industry finally does something right by the collectors. A chance only to them for a a number 1 card and to donate money to charity a great cause and some people still want them for free in packets. I personally think they all went to cheap being a no.1 card. I guess you just cannot please some

 

[batboy]

Was it advertised at the card show the other week? - may an idea to look at something like that??

That way we can buy them at ridiculous prices from the dealers that buy most of the cases...
How is wangy these days??

Not sure they would have gone for more on the open market. I paid more for the one I won knowing it was going to charity

I still think that the one you got is very cheap. After all said and done it is a number one card in the NRL card industry which a total of only 42 no.1 NRL cards and only 1 AFL one ever released the public from Select and ESP. You should feel proud of owning a number 1 card. I have just been informed by a long term collector that all the dynamic no.1 where realesed as well. So there are many no. 1,s to collect as dynamic had a few hundred. Still a privilege to have one of them I think. Any one got one for sale.

Which ones

 

[batboy]

36 just went
2 * Locky
And the Raper and Johns yeah??

 

[batboy]

Of course and forgot about the dynamic no.1,s too which a very rare as well. There will be more number ones if ESP decide to put them in packets as well in the up and coming releases. I think it is a good idea to auction them of.

Hey moz, as said above mate I'm happy the money is going to a good cause.

In regards to my comment about packets, I think to some eyes now, it seems that ESP are the kings.
Auctioning off the number ones for charity. And good on them. But did they advertise this when they sent elite out for sale to the public. NO!! This has only been brought about because collectors complained.

At least they listened??? Where are the select #1s? and the buyers complained about that long and hard

 

[razor77]

Fair point.

As graham has said who ever owns the number 1,s can do what they want with them. This goes for all number one cards in the world
