As great as these cards look, there's a reason people say, "You pay for what you get". This product is not cheap. You're looking at approx. $360 for 4 cards. There's no question reagrading the quality and design of this product, but $360 for 4 cards might be a tough sell in this economy. That being said, this is the closest to a "perfect" product you can get, and collectors will pay for the "perfect" card. I myself would love to just pick up a box (like spending $360 on pieces of cardboard is no big deal), but I'll hope to grab one of the Tyler Myers RC auto's or Ryan Miller Auto's on the secondary markets.

The only way I'll ever be able to afford this stuff is if I win the lottery :-(
ReplyDeleteNice stuff though... I'm still looking to pick up a autographed draft boards card of Setoguchi... I have a feeling I'll be looking for a long time.
I'm pretty excited about this product, but I'm with you. I don't think I can swing $360 for a box. It's a great looking product and I hope to buy 2-3 Buffalo Sabres singles, but that's going to be tough too. Even the singles sell for big money and I'm trying to buy a few of the Panini HOF Basketball cards. Not sure I can do both. Bank robbery job? I would need an accomplice Mark? What do you think?
