Recon is potentially looking better this year auto wise?

im not a fan

I'm surprised this got a second run at the expense of Absolute and Totally Certified.

 

[Iron Clad Lou]

yeah i steered clear of any recon related stuff.

Last year was a nightmare. I hit a rare good auto compared to what i saw in breaks

That said, if box prices remain in the 200-300 range, i would happily crack one open.
I am optimistic that it will be achievable

Interesting. The sell sheet definitely looks better than last year

At least I have heard of Scottie Lewis.

I hit the huge T'Wolves auto in my case break...Ashton Hagans.

@Richo

Cheers mate, I did grab some Blasters and mult-packs a week or so ago

 

[Iron Clad Lou]

One of the places i buy from here in Aus have it for $450.
Very hard pass

Current exchange rate on $250usd plus freight would see it landing here at $400aud. $450 at retail is reasonable.

They just dropped the price to 399

And i was talking 200-300 AUD as "reasonable".

I think i could deal at 250

I could see it coming down to $300 - $350aud bit i doubt lower than that.

Pretty much every new release this season, prices have fallen.

Yeah singles are worth nothing right now.

I might just put the 300 towards a nice Giddey auto

My Prizm preorders should be in my hand Monday. I think i'm just going to sell it and get a big single

 

[Iron Clad Lou]

Going to pick up a pack of Prizm i ordered ages ago today.

Do i open it and deal with the inevitable shit vet silver and even crapper vet red wave or just flog it off with my box?

Kinda tempted to open it in store and just leave the cards there on the counter like a real sour sport
