Guys sorry for the delay in getting this up. Dealing with a back issue, so have not been able to sit around a computer.

Via PM - 19th Century Indy confirmed Canucks and changed to the Columbus Blue Jackets for Anaheim Ducks.

[PsychoPig]

I'll be in.

[captkirk42]

Confirming Caps.

BTW the due date needs to be changed April 10?

[shaqcollector]

[nuhuskers]

I'm in but would like to drop the wild and take the blackhawks.

[obert22]

In again with the Bruins and I can host if Bill can't...

[northicehero99]

Muscle or disc problem?

Was muscle at first, but now sciatica nerve issue. Got meds so hoping this clears it up, seems to be helping.

in with the flyers, i would also ask to pick up Dallas stars this month if i may!

Dallas is yours as well.

I'm in but would like to drop the wild and take the blackhawks.

I will make this change.

Thanks.

Got you both down. That is it, everyone is in for April.

Still one open slot if anyone is interested.

[northicehero99]

Started looking at newer products today and want to see if there is any interest in any of these:

ITG Game Used $128 4 hits all memorabilia
Each Box contains FOUR Authentic Game-Used Memorabilia Cards:
- One Single Game-Used Memorabilia Card
- One Double Game-Used Memorabilia Card
- One Triple Game-Used Memorabilia Card
- One Quad Game-Used Memorabilia Card
(not sure if worth it for $ but ITG usually does some nice GU stuff)

Crown Royale $91 4 hits
Each Box contains Four Autograph or Memorabilia Cards!
Each Pack contains One Auto or Memorabilia Card!
All New Silhouette Autograph Rookie and Veteran cards for 2013-14, averaging Four Per Case!
(not sure how good this is, haven't seen any opened, last few years this product was very hit or miss)

Titanium $94 5 hits
Each Box contains Five Memorabilia Cards or Autographs! At least One Autograph Per Box!
One Memorabilia or Autograph card per hobby pack, including Game Gear, Four Star Memorabilia, Six Star Memorabilia, Milestone Goal Die-Cuts and Metallic Marks Autograph cards!
The most limited rookie cards on the market are only available in Titanium, with each card serial numbered to the rookie's jersey number.
(was supposed to be Canada only, but now seeing it on US dealers lists, rookies are numbered to jersey number and are 1-2 per case)


New products not released but expected to be released by April 10th:

Playbook $90 2 hits releases 4/9
Each Box contains One Autograph or Memorabilia Booklet Card, One additional Autograph or Memorabilia Card, and One Base Card!
(not sure on this promo looks good, but they all do)

Fleer Showcase $114 3 hits releases 4/10
Look for the following Hits in every Box (on average):
- One Hot Prospects Autograph Patch Card
- Two Additional Auto or Memorabilia Hits
- One Hot Prospects Duos or Trios Parallel, Skybox Premium Prospects Parallel, Fleer Ultra Rookies Parallel or Skybox Premium Parallel, Fleer Ultra Premium Parallel, OR Jamabalaya Card
- Three Hot Prospects Duos or Trios, Skybox Premium Prospects, OR Fleer Ultra Rookies Card
- Six Premium or Fleer Ultra Cards
(not sure what to make of this one, past issues of this product have been flops)

Overall, I wouldn't mind trying one of these once. What do you guys have an interest in? Would like to post up some ideas for groups (unless anyone else wants to submit some, budget is roughly $260) in the next few days, so if you can post what you want to see in the groups from any of these that would help. I would like to try the ITG stuff, just like the quality of hits better than some of the others, but in for whatever the group likes.

[PsychoPig]

I personally like Titanium and Crown. The others, I'm not a fan of 'Dr. Price' or ITG in general and playbook is just too gimickey to me and Showcase has definitely been a flop in the past.

[shaqcollector]

i know one thing Titanium Retail was Garbage! i bought like 5 tins and junk is all i came across!

I agree that Playbook is too gimmicky. If I my team or drafted team ever pulls a "book" Please give it to someone else. Those are just money making gimmicks to me. I don't consider the "books" a card they are cardboard memorabilia. I have nothing against non-card cardboard memorabilia but these hinged "book" things I DO NOT like at all and NEVER want to ever own one.

Yeah, the retail was junk, I bought just one and knew not to buy anymore. The hobby though was so-so from breaks I saw as you got 5 hits a box and a chance at those exclusive jersey numbered rcs. However, 3 of the hits were just plain gu cards.
