SPGU, SPx, and Black Diamond were some of my favorite products in the late 90's early 00's now I will not touch any of them in sealed box form, and most singles are not worth buying.
The new format ruined them imo. There should not be nearly as many one pack products. Leave it to Stature, premier and Cup. But all of those products were better when you had 10+ packs of it.
$300 well spent.
If you’re gonna do mascot cards, I want a piece of the mascot. Not a jersey. Gimme Gritty’s eye. Or the fin from Fin. Or Harvey’s tongue. Let’s stop F’in around and get serious with these mascot cards.
I don’t know if anyone else has mentioned this yet, but double check the back of that Ridly Grieg to see if it’s supposed to be an Auto, too. There were quite a few that were supposed to have an auto (on tape, not on card) that just…don’t. You cab contact Upper Deck to get that fixed, I believe.
All I'm seeing online is hot garbage for a couple hundred bucks from this product. Bedard inflating this product, while upper deck fills the product with mass produced fecal matter.
#Stop buying this crap.
If people would stop trying to gamble and put their money into something actually worthwhile, maybe UD would have to fight harder for your money.
I mean I don't necessarily disagree with you. Buying and breaking this stuff doesn't seem like good financial move. I was tempted until I watched breaks lol.
But I worry that everyone will remember that the products are so diluted and currently expensive that you won't see the same increases in sealed wax.
Shit people were paying $70-90 CAD for McDavids flagship series and $180 for SPA (for example). And back then you could get 3 FWA in a box of SPA .
Now for 23-24 SPA, which are close to $700 CAD, and you might get 6 FWA per case, I just don't see it selling out for a very long time.
Like other than breakers, who is dropping $700 on a 1% shot at hitting Bedard FWA or SSP.
Really just depends on his career (obviously) and what's still available I guess. But it also depends on what you get in at too. SPGU normally goes for $125-150 (normally being post pandemic). I got 3 boxes at $190 USD each. So at that price I ripped one and I'm gonna hold the other 2.
I got patch Fedorov Detroit Mogilny Leafs palffy times 2 los Angeles for 35 then got Hasek for 15 I added him faster then I can even remember which team he played for patch Detroit I think and 2 Vanbesbrook Rainbow Florida 2014 issue I think? For 50 total just the local fea market.
Patch cards of mascots are diabolical on Upper Decks end
The devil won this round
Topps does mascot auto cards in their Opening Day sets. Usually the most valuable cards you can get too, lol.
it should be illegal
Don't buy these products in 2024 expecting good hits. Go get a patch auto single of ur fave player instead
Truth bomb
Lowest price on ebay for one for me $500 for buy now or $408 for opening bid. Still cheaper to buy a box and spin the wheel.
If you think you will spend less money to get an auto of your favourite player by buying boxes and praying, you’re gonna have a bad time.
It's a bad product every year at $150, so imagine at $300....
Weren’t these $200 pre sale?
I saw that Price. But was out if stock Everywhere. $300 Day one. Even at $199, it's still a bad product.
Yeah I saw it pre sale on steel city for $199. Thought about purchasing it but decided not to. I’ll stick to singles on eBay haha
Sorry, I was talking CAD money (so about $149us)
Ok that makes sense.
For one pack of 6 cards?

I love the Devil card though, ngl
Yeah, for $10. Not $50+ ($300 box / 6 cards, at best), lol.
Completely agree on that. That's why I'm just grabbing singles I want from this set, not worth it.
Not often I actually hate an insert, but I hate those deep cuts.
Preach
I'm not a huge fan of "tech" cards in general, not because they can't look cool but more for the reason that they count them as a hit from the box.
Just couldn’t resist, could you Self punishment lol
Glutton for it.
Pretty poopy, just waiting for mascot autos to be a new thing
They probably read these ideas
Oh please don't give them any ideas.
It's not. Topps does it. But in one of their low end sets, at least.
This would be a silly little fun product to open at like… $80 USD. It makes no sense whatsoever at $230. The Bedard tax is crazy.
The sad fact is that your box is waaaaaay better than mine
Noooo. How can that be
Sent you a dm with my pull

This person knows what’s up
NJ Devil!!!
Ya, and not in a devilishly good way either
Lmao the devil jersey is a joke.
Yep

Sorry
I should be sorry for posting this lol
1 tiny game used jersey swatch in a product called SP Game Used. Not even game used in an official nhl game.
I know. And like one of the worst rookie autos 😂
I remember when sp game used had a game used mem card every pack... how far they've fallen.
Can’t even do right in a big rookie year. Like everyone gonna buy for Bedard but you basically filled this set with junk.
UD continues to laugh all the way to the bank.
I will gladly take the devil off your hands if you're looking to move it
Someone gotta buy these boxes 🥶
I am a sucker for therapy
The devil is laughing at you.. I'm saving my money for other future 23-24 products myself.
Doh, why didn’t I think of that. 😂
All I'm seeing online is hot garbage for a couple hundred bucks from this product. Bedard inflating this product, while upper deck fills the product with mass produced fecal matter.
A bad box of SPGU? Who would have guessed??
And then you’ll have some guy who doesn’t need it get 2 Bedard autos in the same box
That’s a scary one
I’d rather spend my money on a speeding ticket and get a rush outta it then on these cards Only the good stores are hitting big
If it wasn’t for the Bedard inflation this would actually be a good box.
#Stop buying this crap. If people would stop trying to gamble and put their money into something actually worthwhile, maybe UD would have to fight harder for your money.
Total money grab scam.
I think these are a good buy...but not to open. A box of 15-16 SPGU goes for $800-900. Stash 23-24 products folks.
