Got a question about ESP Rugby League Trading cards?

[Wellsie]

Are they planning on putting a New Zealand distributor in place to get these cards into dairys, newsagents and service stations over here?
Card collecting in NZ has been f***ed since around 1996 and with someone putting 2011 and 2012 Select Champions series into dairys, newsagents and service stations we were starting to get quite a few kids back into it.
Series 2 was never distributed over here but I'd hate to see those kids we were finally getting back into collecting NRL cards again lose interest as they cannot get the product over here.

Are there any plans to employ a graphic designer?

AHAHAHHA YES. Love it

In dairies? I grew up surrounded by dairies, but I don't remember any cows being keen on cards, or any collectibles for that matter. Does dairy mean something different in NZ? Just curious.

Dairys = Milk Bar

Dairys = Milk Bar

Cheers Raj, making more sense to me now.

The hoof prints on the parallels would be horrendous ...

 

[Wellsie]

Lol! Yeah thats something I noticed on my trips over there. You guys have seven elevens etc... A dairy in NZ is a seven eleven over there. Just without being part of a chain. They are all individually owned over here

 

[thenamesgould]

What?! So you don't call them dairies in Australia?

 

[The Mad Hatter]

We used to have milk bars and corner shops and newsagents.

Now we have soulless 7-11's.

 

[thenamesgould]

This information has blown my mind haha.

 

[AyiosYiorgos]

The only good thing about 7-11's are the Slurpee's...

 

[Wellsie]

To see boxes of these cards for sale on ebay for $49.99 one would have to assume its a searched case wouldnt one?
Or should I just say bugger it and buy one anyway?

Searched. Why else would it be listed at well below the wholesale price.

 

[The Mad Hatter]

And at $49.99, where can I get one?

 

[Wellsie]

That was my impression as well. Still tempting... Damn my urge to bust packs!

Yep....although in Thailand the 7-11's on every corner were a godsend!!

 

[Wellsie]

Turns out all 4 boxes listed at $49.99 were sold or pulled in the time it took me to post the message on here...

Yeah, cause I just checked Ebay. Damn! I'd take the common cards for that price.

 

[Wellsie]

I was tempted to buy one just for the pleasure of busting packs to get my own common set...

 

[Wellsie]

The very same seller just listed 3 boxes at 99.99 each...

Please keep the topic in track by only posting questions for ESP and not general chit chat. There are already other existing threads you can use to do that.

Cheers
