I'm always going to try & get whatever Raiders cards are out there but it's plain stupid to withhold a checklist. If I owned a company I'd want my customers to know what they are buying and drive the marketing for them as much as possible. By not releasing it it makes people a bit standoffish on if they should get right into collecting the whole series or just there team. I for one think ESP again have gotten it wrong in regards to what the fans wantAt the end of the day its just over a week, weather we get it now or not were still going to get it and its not that far away so i say sit tight and enjoy,
and if people are waiting for the checklist to decide weather to go all out and buy heaps or less then it doesn't make sense to me i mean if your a collector of a team then it shouldnt matter really, For e.g.: im a titans collector therefore i want the titans sigs doesnt mater who they are i still am going to get them so i can try and complete my collection. I mean if your holding out on waiting to see if an individual player is going to be a sig before buying heaps of boxes then yeah maybe you would want to know but thats the risk in collecting, collecting is not meant to benefit anyone, its meant to be an even playing field if you want to buy 5 cases and then find out your favourite player is a sig then woo bonus you might pull it, I just dont understand the whole needing to know the checklist i mean are people really going to not want to buy boxes because a certain star could be there sig.
I for one feel the whole saving the checklist to release date is a great idea it keeps mystery until the final day of release and then as everyones finding out what the stars are etc everyone is busting boxes As the old saying goes "ALL GOOD THINGS COME TO THOSE WHO WAIT" so i say sit back wait it out and enjoy the ride that is the next week and a bit because come next wednesday its on like donkey kong!
As for delay in the release again this is just poor management, a well run business would have allowed for possible delays in the supply chain, cutting it so fine that a very short term closure impacts schedules is lame.

Heard they had a couple of delays that impacted on this release...the spill at Botany was the latest.
One player didn't get his cards back signed in time which almost resulted in a redemption card for this particular player and one insert set had to be reprinted from scratch.
There are a lot of things that happen we just don't always hear about them. Hope they get them out ASAP.
Cheers

pumping out 4 series in 1 year has run into teething problems for them by the sound of it.
Were the cards printed or packaged in china .?
dont think you have a problem there
I gotta say this is the most excited I've been for a release in ages, and all the moaning on here isn't gonna spoil it for me! Two sigs for my team (including a decent player) and the boxes I've bought aren't going to be total flops like they usually are. Great post Girds.
Premium footy cards, out Wednesday. Fairly certain this is good news. Couldn't give two f*cks if ESP lie their *rses off and don't release a checklist at all. I pay for footy cards and it looks like these are good ones.
Bring on that Benny Barba sig!
