2014 ESP Elite info discussion thread (Flyer P22 - Checklist P41)

[Rocket1908]

good thing I'm going to the sunday show!

Will I be able to buy a common set?

Also on my hopes for a souths team set, if any of those youngsters aren't in it I'm hoping Ben Lowe or Joe Picker, forgot about those two when writing it

 

[joeyhonson]

If I can buy a box on Sunday, I'll do the bust there and then. Will give away team base sets to whoever wants them. There should be 2 complete sets per box so 2 complete sets of each team.

 

[Rocket1908]

I want 1souths set and depending on who's in it, doubles of each player who didn't get a card in 2013 Traders, 2014 Traders or 2014 Power Play.

 

[jrinbulli]

Anyone know if the checklist is out yet? I'm keen to know which players are on the Raiders cards

 

[Rocket1908]

if i get one tomorrow at the card fair i'll post pics

Anyone have an idea what price range the world cup parallels are going to be selling for?

They are /80 so less cards per player than the future stars/league senastions but more players available and at the same 1 in 3 box ratio. Im sure the cam smith or thurston cards for example will be more chased than a papalii so just a rough guide.

The ebay sellers who have prelisted seem to have no idea also as these are the only set they havent listed.

I'm thinking around the same price as the Elite Golds from the last series. Will start around $100-$80 but quickly decline. More the merrier for me tho as I'll be using them for trade bait.

Im in the same boat. Im a kiwi too so these "heroes" cards are hard to look at so if im unlucky enough to get one in my box breaks im hoping to trade to get something I actually want....

I think they will hold value a bit better than the FFS from 2013 Elite. For starters there is a much better player selection, the FFS was a bit mediocre in that respect. There are also only 80 each of these and 24 to a set will make it hard to put together. I doubt they will be but if they were to be individually numbered that would really help. I think $80-$100 initially and will stabilize at $50-$70

 

[Croz]

I think they are on a winner with the set. The quality is quite good!

Is it just me or is the Women's league redemption going to be one of the most common cards ie.
1 per 2 boxes, which means 5 per case. 600 cases = 3000 redemption cards

Seems very easy. The hardest part of the whole thing for me will be to get the cards from esp as I'm in Nz. Hopefully our supplier get a whole lot.

I thought it was one card per 2 boxes with the chance of getting a redemption for the full set?

Cheers

[Diggaz TC]

I was under the impression that it was a redemption card 1:2 boxes which redeemed the complete set.

I hope I'm wrong though. Having singles 1:2 boxes with the odd chance of getting a redemption for the whole set would be a great way of doing it

It's says full set

 

[Matt26]

It's says full set

Yep your card is for the full set......but the way I thought it worked was that the single cards cards 1-9 were 1 in 2 boxes AND there was also the chance of pulling a redemption for the full set.

If you have a look at the sell sheet it says a chance of a redemption. I think this how it will work? If so you may have pulled a hard to get card?

Might have. Damn I should of asked terry while he was there about them. I was thanking him on the look of the set.

The Flyer does create the question. However, when they sent out the ratios it says:

Redemption Cards - Women In League 1 in 48 packs

I can't imagine them having a redemption card for the singles. Pretty sure they just have the one card which redeems a set at 1:2 boxes.

Yeah I don't see a redemption being for singles but if they redemption card is 1 in 48 then that's a lot of redemptions to fulfill.

1 per 2 boxes = 5 per case x 600 cases = 3000 redemptions......thats a lot to manage.

 

[Diggaz TC]

Exactly. I really hope there are singles...it adds value to the full set redemption then.

I guess all will be confirmed as we see some box breaks tonight.

Anyone that attended the Newcastle Show grab a checklist that was supposed to be unveiled there?
