Ohhh I like option c.

See why I don't do break lists?

[redwing40]

Just to confirm that I'm out for this break.

[northicehero99]

Just to confirm that I'm out for this break.

I will update the main topic. I forgot about the other posts in the February topic. Will have to see which team Zach would prefer, Wings or Panthers.

[redwing40]

I will update the main topic.  I forgot about the other posts in the February topic.  Will have to see which team Zach would prefer, Wings or Panthers.

I told him he can have the Red Wings.

[northicehero99]

I told him he can have the Red Wings.

I saw that post, but he also posted he would take Florida, so I just want to confirm which team he wants, figuring it is Wings, but just in case I have a note next to Florida until I hear from him.

[northicehero99]

Noting who responded in the other topic, I have the following members stating they are in:

bajmurray x2
zacho16122
Obert22
franklinguy52
nuhuskers
NIH99
geschrocks
maple19
avaholicforever

If everyone above is in, then we just need to hear from these members that they are in at the higher $45 grouping:

straightbutta14
pavi

Updated for additional posts.

[maple19]

I like B

C is got to much junk like AHL BTP MVP is only good for Hawks and Habs

[northicehero99]

As of right now product votes are:

A - 0
B - 1 (maple19)
C - 2 (geschrocks, obert22)
C2 - 2 (zacho, nuhusker) w/o MasterPieces and replaced by SPA or SPGU

So if you are in please post your thoughts on the boxes above. Thanks.

For $35, BTP is a pretty decent value with 5 hits, and some sweet Memorabilia possibilities. AHL is in there as a cheap random option, and if I'm not mistaken, some people expressed interest in that in the past.

MVP is there as a fun change up, its $15, so why not give it a shot.

If anyone is curious on the MVP, there's a 30 card checklist of RC's. Teams are as follows:

Atlanta (x3)
Chicago (x2)
Edmonton (x2)
St. Louis (x2)
Toronto (x2)
Ottawa (x2)
Phoenix (x2)
Anaheim
New Jersey
Washington
LA Kings
Columbus
NY Rangers
Tampa Bay
Dallas
San Jose
Minnesota
Pittsburgh
Vancouver
Boston

21 of 30 NHL teams represented. Mine isn't one of them.

If people don't like those 3 (MVP, AHL, BTP), then sub something in for them as a group D. I used the options to try and get a variety. Hits, YG's, RC's. A little bit of everything to go around.

[zacho16122]

I'm in with the Wings. I will take my chances on getting Florida through the draft, so just the one spot for me please. I like group c, but again, I'd rather have SPA or SPGU instead of Masterpieces, but if you guys wanna bust Masterpieces, I'm good with it!

[nuhuskers]

I like C as well and I also agree with Zach on the spa or spgu instead of masterpieces.

[geschrocks33]

14-15 SPGU is $86 with 5 hits, 14-15 SPA $90 with 3 Autos, if people wanted to go that route as a replacement to Masterpieces.

[zacho16122]

I'd pitch in an extra dollar if needed to make up that extra cost for either of those products. Better value IMO, and chance at some really big hits.

[northicehero99]

I updated the votes and C or modified C are both tied for the lead. Anyone else want to check in or vote?

[maple19]

I going to pull out as I can not trade AHL or MVP as for the other stuff you change it and most of the stuff I wanted was 13/14 with M Rielly in it now their not much with him in it

OK, but the voting is not complete, there are still 7 members who have not voted (two of which have not confirmed), so it could still flip to A or B.

All the box suggestions were based on having 12 members, so if we have less than that, we will need to adjust the groupings and eliminate roughly $40 in boxes per member not in.

Actually, I think Mark may have overbudgeted our box allotment at $500, as that would be 12 x $42, which means he would only have a little over $3 per member for shipping and paypal fees and $0 for supplies. With the amount of boxes in these groupings sending base will add to the shipping this month as well. Maybe he is good on supplies, but not sure he wants to or should eat some of the shipping. Of course if he wants to eat that ugly hat, I have no problems with that. jk

[geschrocks33]

This might be the last time I even bother saying this because I've said it 39842938850923 times.

IF YOU DON'T LIKE THE BOX GROUPING, MAKE A SUGGESTION TO FIX IT.

For example. Zach said he doesn't like Masterpieces, said he would prefer SPA. Perfect.

If you don't like the AHL & the MVP we can eliminate it. It was a simple suggestion. Where we get 30 RC's and 5 Autographs for a total of $34. If you would like to come up with something better for $34, please let me know what you'd like instead. Me & Brian are (usually) the only people thinking up options, thanks to Mark for kick starting it this month.

Newsflash to anyone that does a group break:

Sometimes, you aren't going to like the box grouping. That's just the way it is. There have been numerous times where I'm thinking to myself, I really hate this grouping of boxes that won the vote. Yet I'm still here. Not everything will always be a win/win for everyone, but if everyone gives adequate input, we should be able to please people.

End rant.
