A Box of esp 2012 NRL Limited Edition

[Sharky]

Came across some cheapish listings on eBay for 2012 Limited ($50ish) so I grabbed a box, mostly as I was missing a lot of commons from the series and for the price I thought why not.

Busting it open now

 

[Sharky]

Half way through already,

A couple of parallels

P58 Sam Thaiday
P70 Jack Reed



I do kind of like the representative focused series, something I wouldn't mind seeing again in some form

 

[Sharky]

And the rest of the bix is now busted.

Four more parallels

P10 Johnathan Thurston
P22 Ben Matulino
P35 Akuila Uate
P46 David Taylor



And...

 

[Sharky]

The last pack of the box

 

[Jaede]

congrats, nice hit

 

[parrathruandthru]

The last pack of the box

Let me know if you are looking to sell

 

[3bet]

The last pack of the box

Wow. That's different! Nice hit Steve

 

[Sharky]

So after a sort of the commons I completed one 72 card base set and was 7 cards short of a complete second set, 6 parallels which is right on the odds of 1:3 and the Hindy Jersey Sig

Which is a nice piece of jersey patch

So pretty happy with what I got for the price I paid.

Cracking patch mate, well done.

I am assuming these are the $50 boxes on eBay?

This product was $8 PP when it first came out and now less than $3 if you buy a box, crazy

 

[Sharky]

Yep that is the one, I thought at that price it was worth a gamble.

same seller also has 2013 traders for the same price,

 

[Diggaz TC]

That seller is Ikon Collectables.

 

[Benbenben]

How much is a jersey sig worth? Is it safe to assume if you buy one of these boxes you will hit enough to sell and make money back? Or total lottery

 

[Sharky]

No idea what they are worth but the odds are like 1:60 packs And 18 packs in a bix

 

[Parrapaul]

Was the packet feeling any different then the rest of them

 

[Sharky]

Was the packet feeling any different then the rest of them

It felt pretty much the same and when I opened it it had a thin spacer I front of the card so it looked the same thickness as a normal spacer and didn't realise it was a jersey card until I moved the thin spacer card

 

[MikeK]

Trust me, the patch packs are slightly thicker than normal packs but you'll need a set of callipers to tell the difference.
