forgot this mvp 15/16 out on wed it 60 up here but should be cheaper down there

[geschrocks33]

Are you saying you want to do boxes of 13-14 S1 and S2?  Sorry, just want to make sure I am understanding this part of your post.  Thanks.

Sorry I'll clarify it a bit better:

I like doing S1/S2 (from any years) - as if you can get retail boxes for cheap you are getting YG's, which are usually more collected than most hits we would get, so I consider those "hits".

I meant any 13-14 Products, because even though some boxes aren't the strongest (no guarantee of that in any product) you get a good bang for your buck on a lot of them from last year (Select, Titanium, etc.)

OK. S1 and S2 are about all I build anymore unless something is cheap or catches my interest.

As for 13-14, I would prefer a mix of years as it gives more teams a chance. Even though 13-14 was a good year, some teams I feel are over-represented in different years and products, so by mixing years it levels out. Also, some products are heavily rookie favored which hurts those of us wanting new star/semi-star hit cards from our teams.

Whatever the group likes we will go with.

I agree on the mix of years, and I think everything is too rookie favored these days

Well it is that way as they can buy more rookie auto for what it costs for one star auto.

Looking for payments soon. Thanks.

I'll come up with some options, might just make minor adjustments to yours as I think they are pretty good

[maple19]

i do not like any of those groups i like last months ps do not like retail packs

This grouping Mike? I dont like Playbook, Platinum or UD S1 in this group, 4 hits for a $163, I dont count RCs, for that price you can get more hits out of other product, not sure what happened to Brian's grouping, but I did saw one I liked.

Group E (Derrick # 1):
12-13 Rookie Anthology - $40 (5 hits)
13-14 Playbook - $63 (2 hits)
13-14 Select - $45 (4 hits)
13-14 Crown Royale - $56 (4 hits)
14-15 Series 1 Retail - $30 (1 GU + 6 YG's)
14-15 OPC Platinum - $70 (1 AU + RC's + Parallels)
Total - $304 (17 hits, 6 YG's + RC's/Parallels)

[maple19]

that's the one as the dollar sinks I need hits GU & AU as I have lots of yg and retail you do not get the case hits only in hobby

platium and playbook you can trade easy all the time quick ,,

I also like decades and classic were there 6 hits in each

[redwing40]

I just want to pick a Group My vote never counts anyways

[northicehero99]

No wonder it would not load up that's my worst ever break since I been in the group the percy au save it A bit

Mike you had 1 hit from that group and posted the above. That group was not too kind to too many members, beyond that I was not that impressed with anything we pulled, even though I got 1 hit in all that. Up to the group, but I am not interested in doing that group again. I would prefer pc hits over traders.

[maple19]

that's was just those boxes . that will not happen all the time I can take my money to cnc Canadian and get in a whole case more hits for the same money as the dollar dropping up here it be down to 65 cents a dollar soon they say I will have to pay close to $40 for a $26 dollar break that's why I need bigger hits and there not in retail packs


I like PC also but you get a good hit from other teams you can trade for a PC

booklets go high a lot of good ones and you can trade them

because of the dollar I going to have to drop out sorry guys

Its at 76 cents right now Mike, so when I go to CnC to get on breaks they charge me full price US cash, I should get a refund then right?

Well Mike I dont think its fair for you to drop out, you knew it joining up and I already gave up extra money just to cover an extra slot to try to fill the group, Thanks!

Mike, that is your choice if that is what you want to do. I am not sure where you will get a $26 break of a good team on that site. I have seen some cheap teams, but usually it is Arizona, Winnipeg, and the good teams are all well overpriced for the risk, sometimes there are decent teams in a 1/2 case, but I just had New Jersey for $15 and all I got was an auto from a 1/2 case (8 boxes), which is all I got here last month for $11 more and less boxes. As for retail they were only suggestions, that have been removed as I get tired of posting only to have everything I put up be hated. As I have said numerous times anyone can add a grouping, but only a few do, so if you don't like it you could be a solution. Good Luck with your breaks on CNC.

Got Bill's payment.

[geschrocks33]

Honestly this is probably one of the most consistent, affordable breaks you can get involved in. You get two teams, one of which you get to pick, and can get a lot of cool stuff for $26. Just like any group break you get into, you can probably get shut out. That's the way it goes.

[franklinguy52]

Personally, I absolutely love this break! I have just started to get into hockey collecting and this break has gotten me a great start!
