wow that is a good price are they on ebay? i not sure if i should get a box from here out as my inserts and commons are all complete and dont want to get stuck with a heap i cant sell (more than i already have)

 

[eggshen]

Yeah boxes have just sunk in price big time. I think UFC.com are selling them for $99 too, And they had a 20% off storewide thing happening. Not sure if thats still on though.

 

[crg0084]

hey egg if your sidebottom is still up for trade id make it worth your while with some of my ufc doubles?

 

[eggshen]

Yeah i'd trade the Sidey for the right cards, What pm me with what auto's youre willing to swap

 

[smit]

I have a harry taylor dps i'll trade for any ufc autos if anyone wants it. Will take any autos for it.

 

[eggshen]

I have a few auto's i can offer for the Taylor smit. i'll pm you

I am keen to get some more boxes best price i have seen is ufc.com $99 a box has anyone bought from the official site before as to postage ect?

 

[smit]

Thats the best price going i believe. Dacardworld have them for that price as well.

 

[crg0084]

i cant believe the others ive bought have been $200 US! i almost want to cry. This series of ufc really died in the ass the top end autos are all affordable now great to fin sets but sucks for anyone ever wanting to sell

That is what happens when they saturate the market with too many releases on top of each other

 

[Jets59]

yeah although im also noticing the prices of round 1 have fallen as well, well the individual cards anyway the boxes are still going for astronomical amounts. The round 1 cards havent fallen as much as round 2 but i have definately noticed a dip.

Maybe the general novelty has just worn off, I dont know. At least it is making it easier to pick up what I need to finish off the sets, although it sucks I spent so much on Round 2 when it was first released. I swear I could have a master set with the money I spent on boxes early on lol, ah well. Its not bout the money, its all fun.

And with Round 3 to be releaesed soon, I think round 2 will fall even more as people go crazy over that. I know I wont be making the same mistake with round 3 as I did with 2 though.

I bought a box from UFC.com. It was a while ago though, Postage was around $20, cant remember exactly. It was through FedEx and they had online tracking which was cool.

 

[Jets59]

Speaking of round 3, the pre sale boxes on ebay are listed at buy it now for $60 lol,

Topps certainly have destroyed the value. ah well, should be cheap to collect, and there are some cool looking/sounding cards on the checklist.

Could have been worse mate.... you could have bought a case!

 

[crg0084]

yer mate true id be keen to get more off u but when u can get them for $99 it would be crazy and im sure u dont want to sell them for that

 

[siegeandspike]

Hard call.

Do I sell for $99 and make $110 loss a box just to free up some $$'s??
OR
Hold onto them??
OR
Do I bust all the boxes and hope to pull a couple of cards that do sell (ie high end Auto or #'d cards)??

None of the options sound too good to me
At least if I open them, then I have a little fun!!
But in the back of my mind, I will be thinking that I am opening mega dollars worth of boxes. That will take some of the fun out of it

I wonder what the value of them would be in 5 -10 years time???
Any thoughts?

 

[crg0084]

duno if you want to sell id pay $120 delivered a box but as u say its a loss for you let me know in the next few weeks or il order some off ufc cheers

 

[siegeandspike]

I will definately think about it, how many boxes you after?

 

[crg0084]

prob 2 i seem to be the only unlucky one out of ur case so far keen to see if i can amend that
