Don't know many kids that could afford this set Brad, except maybe yours Must be aimed at adults, shame shame shame!!

At least the platinum and esp were quality limited edition sets, autos/subsets etc...

Ha ha yeah OK, you have a point Liam

All it needed was a token auto and I along with the rest of you would have jumped all over it - anyone, Khawaja, Ferguson, Paine, hell even Ray Bright could have signed a bloody XXXX beer coaster and I'd be coughing up my $299 quick smart!

Any limited edition "Elite" set needs an auto!!!

No auto, no good!!!

It's going on my Christmas wishlist.

$299 for 200 sets - nice way to pull in $60K!

Honestly why didn't they just do a 9 card auto premium set for $299, or even $399? Would have been way more cost effective for Select and pleased us way more.

As nice as the 94/95 Futera Ashes box set was (along with the Heritage set it is the best base set designs ever), even that only sells for about $30! I think they are kidding themselves with the price tag when there is no insert chase card or auto randomly inserted.

The 03 Platinum set sells for about $300 and is a brilliant set with 8 quality autos, and 04/05 set was $399 at retail but that comes with a Punter AND a Warne auto...and 7 others!

We need more bang for our buck for $299 Select!

And can i add that if this sells poorly Select will simply say there is weak demand for cricket cards in Australia - not true! There will ALWAYS be demand for a quality product!

I really understand why a few of you guys are switching to NBA, Select are really killing the hobby. Boring, recycled designs, lack of creativity, not evolving with the the trends of the hobby worldwide etc

Soccer, Cricket and NRL cards are really in danger. The price of higher end NRL cards (# to 100 mind you)either hold their value or increase, so there is definately a demand for more.
I would rather them go bust, so some other company jumps in. It would be much better in the long run than insult the serious collectors with the thoughtless junk they continue to spit out.

well put justin, i agree 100% except for soccer there cards are booming and they are no way in danger ahahah, only in terms of a-league not the rest of the world.

Surely Select would have to put a Siddle hatrick redemption card in now?
1 in 5 sets would be good, making only 40 of 'em, be sweet.

These look like an awesome affordable option for me. Plus there are actually sigs too. Probably printed but better than nothing.

I have tomorrow morning free, so will go trawling the Woolies and newies to get price and availabilty. I'll probably buy a shed load, so if I get double, if anyone wants to send me PMs with wants (if available AND no promises), let me know.

I'll try and get a report up tomorrow night, if not Sunday night.

PS - I am a Cricket nut, so anything like this I love.
