OT: Hockey Cards and e-Pack

[Satan]

well

im getting pulled in

Got these YGs: Duke, Dellandrea, Bellows, McMichael, Oettinger, Kravtsov

French YG: Bowers

and a handful of other cards that seem to not be completely worthless

still very confused about a lot of stuff but im picking it up

From UDS1: Dazzlers or the other non-canvas/portrait inserts carry value because people can redeem them for the Makar/QHughes tribute ygs and then the McDavid tribute yg

 

[Satan]

When UDS1 originally dropped I was getting big returns for dazzlers and stuff. Been a while since I opened packs so idk what they're currently worth but they aren't worthless

I just traded one for a few ygs, lower end though. I don't really actively shop my dazzlers though so if I get an offer I usually accept it, but only if ygs are involved

 

[Satan]

Ya YGs are key. I regret not going for the McDavid tribute because I expected the price to plummet after a month but they've held above 200 USD for so long haha

Might be a little more difficult now but never too late

I thought about trying to go for it but ultimately decided it would take me too long. Maybe could trade for Makar + Hughes tributes and then just go after the impressions or whatever it takes perhaps.

 

[Satan]

Instant Impressions are also worth trading for a couple ygs too @LT

I'm so happy Upper Deck put all of the Stars rookies in series 1. Gonna save me a lot of money with series 2 where I probably will only open like 1 box to try and pull a Kaprizov or Stützle

Also I wish SPA came to ePack...but I probably will just end up buying Individual future watch autos this year anyways.

Any of yall collect future watch autos?

Bought Roope Hintz's future watch auto for like $23 before the season began thank God I didn't wait for that it's ridiculous right now. Unfortunately bought Gurianov's too for around that same price but that's not turning out as well, although it has jumped in price too a bit. Haven't bit on Heiskanen's yet but it's not too bad you can find it for under $100

Yo who wants to buy my hockey cards.

Just took a peak what Ovechkin Young Gun is going for on Ebay.. I should probably hold it another 30 years, it will only go up in value right?

I'm 100% interested if you wanna move em all at once

 

[Satan]

If you guys really want to make money, start buying soccer cards

You like Kevin Bieksa and Loui Eriksson?

LMFAO

I had a weird collection going like 2004-08, but those were my two favourite players. I will go through my stuff tonight and might PM you some pictures of the stuff that is worthwhile. I cleared out most of the base a few years back, but still have a couple full base sets, I have 2 or 3 full Young Gun sets, then random Dallas jerseys/Autos, and Kevin Bieksa and Loui Eriksson stuff..

Hahaha that's sick. That reminds me of my slick Matt Niskanen collection that I lost a lot of money on.

Yeah honestly if you're looking to move your rookies, autos, jerseys in a bulk lot, I'm interested.

I went through a phase a couple years ago of buying into random breaks and now have a bunch of cards from other teams that I don't want to collect, but have no real way to get rid of them because shipping to Canada (where folks would likely buy them) is a pain in the ass, lol.

I've got an American PO Box

Is synergy worth buying?

 

[Satan]

Is synergy worth buying?

Definitely not but I love to gamble

 

[Kcb12345]

Opened one pack and got McDavid red base, Alexander true rookie auto, and then some Pastrnak insert. Might take a gamble as well and open a box tbh (although I know it's rare to pull autos) I'm getting bored of series 1 packs and likely won't be opening any season 2 or SPGU (if that comes to epack, not sure) when those eventually come around lol

 

[Satan]

SPGU will come to epack but it's like 125 usd+ for 5 cards. V poor ROI usually

Yeah I opened a physical box of SPGU last year and it was such a waste got like maybe $15-25 worth of cards back from it.

Yeah it's an awful product loaded with $2 jersey cards

 

[Kcb12345]

Opened a couple of synergy boxes and I gotta say I really like that product tbh. None of my pulls were "incredible" but I did get a #'d Lafreniere and a few Byrams and a JRob, etc. Nice change in pace from opening series 1 stuff. Kinda doubt synergy stuff sells that well but it's fun to open

I'm a big fan of numbered cards and autos tho so

 

[Satan]

I pulled a Klingberg auto /65 from Synergy if anyone wants to wheel and deal

I actually like SPGU. It's definitely overpriced, but I do like the patch cards and the draft day marks that they have in there.

I'm a big fan of the draft day marks but based on their prices it seems smarter to straight up buy them
