That could also mean a greater odds on the signature cards ....1 in 4 boxes for the young guns or even 1 in 3 or 4 cases for the Legends ????

True dat. Hope not though! Thinking about it further i reakon all ratios will be on an per packet level. If you remember 2004 Select had that sort of similar thing with retail boxes having 24 packs and hobby boxes having 36 packs. Ratios were still the same but were all based on per packet.

I tried to tackle the ratio question from another angle by asking about the production run numbers. That information is not available for release...........

At all or just "at this time".

shane_sharks · Feb 19, 2013

The cards don't look too bad.

One thing I'd like to know, is anyone else sick of parallels? ESP ones have been the most boring since they are not even different in design than the commons, just slightly shinier. I like having one per pack inserts but would prefer something along 09 classic and 06 where they had a six card subset per team that were different than a straight copy of the common cards.

Totally sick of them - particularly when the images are exactly the same. Complete waste of space. To me, their only value is that the few bucks I can get for selling 36 of these is likely more than I could from a spare base set. I'd like to see something like a representative set inserted 1 card per pack - but I'd imagine ESP will save origin/test cards for a separate release like last year's.

At this point, I haven't busted a box since Dynasty, so I'm still excited to have a crack at Traders, but I'm wary that my $140 may only net me 7 inserts (four being pictures of jerseys) and if I'm 'lucky' I'll get a retirement card for a player who was probably a borderline first grader.

Unless you pull a signature card, I fear this series could produce some major post-break blues. Some decent career stats on the backs of cards would soften the blow, but I'm not holding my breath.

Personally i would be furious if he didn't. Its not your fault he is clueless.

Yeah i would think no chance. With only 130 of them he will be down ~$100 per card.

Particularly when one person bought most of them. Might as well just send that guy a cheque!

Yer, the big question is whether the seller will honour those sales now...

Why wouldnt they, they were wanting presales, thats what they got! I will be *slightly annoyed* if they cant supply my 2x Warrior Young Guns!

troy titans · Feb 19, 2013

Isn't it his fault for doing the pre sales though?? Surely he can't go back on it now. it's his fault for having a crack at guessing the prices so early right? and also the fact that he has probably had the opposite effect plenty of times before and gotten overs on his presales!

Dragon_Fire · Feb 19, 2013

It will Be very interesting to see.
Over a $2000 loss versus sellers good name.

Now you quantify it like that, Im not holding my breath

thenamesgould · Feb 19, 2013

If it was me, I'd take the negative feedback any day of the week!

Personally I wouldn't give negative feedback if I'd bought one and he didn't supply it, though. He made a stupid mistake ... doesn't mean he should lose thousands of dollars.

League Hub · Feb 19, 2013

Maybe they will honour mine & shane_sharks 2x card purchase, not sure about chopzta's 17x card spending spree thou

Daniel82 · Feb 19, 2013

Not taking any sides here, but another perspective to think about is if you bought cards at $80 thinking it was cheap and they came out worth $25, would you still pay for them??? I know I wouldn't...

Dragon_Fire · Feb 19, 2013

I Think thats what he will do just honour 1 card per buyer.
