Outline · [ Standard ] · Linear+ AVAHOLIC'S SEPTEMBER HOCKEY GROUP BREAK, Draft complete, break Sunday???

or...

12-13 Rookie Anthology - $35 (4 hits)
13-14 Artifacts - $57 (4 hits)
15-16 SPGU - $100 (5 hits)
13-14 Contenders - $64 (4 hits)

That's $256 for 17 hits with a little bit higher end product in SPGU. I know that's $6 over....

I'd get excited for a grouping like that. The quality of hits should be fairly decent and spread around for many teams.

I would consider adding an extra team this month if it would help to make up for overages.

I would consider adding an extra team this month if it would help to make up for overages.

I think if we are over slightly we are OK as long as we have a DA code that will save $5, so I don't think we would need extra teams picked up, but if you want to, that would be fine as well, just let me know which one.

[northicehero99]

I don't have an opinion on any of the groupings at this point, just one thing to keep in mind is will UD honor any redemption in 13-14 Artifacts? I don't think they will, but please post if you know differently. If I am right then the rookie redemption is worthless and the risk is a hit could be as well. I am good either way, but that is something to consider. Of course if you get one in a Panini product, you will have to wait forever . . . . .

[geschrocks33]

1st of all - THANK YOU Zach for throwing out some options of your own, much appreciated.


2nd - I don't mind Zach's modified option, I'll make that the Option 3, I forgot Leaf Metal was mostly draft stuff, and it's literally labeled as "Leaf Metal Draft" so that was a total "duhhhhhhh" move by me. LOL

So here is where we are at:

Option 1:

13-14 Ultimate - $56 (2 hits)
14-15 Draft Prospects - $50 (5 hits)
15-16 Leaf H&P - $100 (10 hits)
16-17 MVP - $40

Total: $246 (17 hits)



Option 2:

13-14 Decades - $60 (6 hits)
14-15 Ultimate - $130 (4 hits)
15-16 Anthology - $60 (6 hits)

Total: $250 (16 hits)



Option 3:

12-13 Rookie Anthology - $35 (4 hits)
13-14 Artifacts - $57 (4 hits)
13-14 Contenders - $64 (4 hits)
15-16 SPGU - $100 (5 hits)

Total: $256 (17 hits)



Option 4:

13-14 Totally Certified - $54 (4 hits)
13-14 Select - $50 (4 hits)
14-15 Draft Prospects - $50 (5 hits)
15-16 Portfolio - $80 (2 hits)

Total: $234 (15 hits)

All,

So I wanted to purpose this to the group.

Since we're trying to turn Sept so quickly how would you all feel about holding on shipping August break, combining with Sept, and using all our funds for Sept for the card budget? The additional shipping cost wouldn't be enough to worry about the extra for me. That would give us a box budget of I'll say $290-300 after Paypal fees.

Are you guys ok with something like that? I mention it now cause it could impact our box groupings. If there are one or two folks who wish to NOT wait I can ship their August items now but if it's more than that then this probably won't work.

Let me know what you guys think.

[geschrocks33]

I'm pretty sure I barely got anything in August anyways, so if that would give us the option to add another box, I'd be down for that.

I think the person to ask would be Brian M. LOL

[zacho16122]

Fine by me! Would be nice to have some extra money and go back to the drawing board on the box group. Also, Brian makes some good points about the redemptions in 13-14 product. I don't think either Artifacts or Contenders has many, aside from the rookie redemp in Artifacts. Maybe Artifacts could be swapped out for something bigger with the new budget?

[pavi39]

You can ship both of my months together as well.

If we don't need extra funds I won't take another team. Just wanted to make sure that no one would be shorted if we did a little extra.

[northicehero99]

I agree with Derrick that Brian M would be the only one who might not want to wait, it was pretty much all going to him anyway, right? I am good with waiting as the Sprong GU is PC, so just gonna get buried anyway. And more products to open means the wrong Brian gets more hits. just kidding around Brian.

As for Artifacts wasn't saying that to be critical, just one of those things, would hate to hit a high end hit that was a redeemer and not be able to get it for whomever it would belong to as UD is ridiculous about the cutoff dates on their redemptions. Not sure why when you should have the auto if you are offering it and it should be at least good for more than a year, not like they are going to throw out a Gretzky auto because someone did not redeem it, right?

[obert22]

OK here's who is good with combining shipping and adding to the card budget so far.

Brian (Northicehero99)
Tim (Pavi)
Zach (zacho16122)
Derrick (geschrocks)

Waiting to hear from these folks...

Brian (bajmurray)
Paul (redwing40)
Oliver (straightbutta14)
Bill (Avaholicforever)
Troy (franklinguy52)
Bryce (nuhuskers)

I got a rookie redemption in 13-14 Artifacts a few month ago, and they would not honor it.

[bajmurray]

I'm good with combining shipment and adding to the budget.

After all, I did that last month as well!

[franklinguy52]

I am fine waiting

[northicehero99]

Let's try to get payments in ASAP so we can get to ordering.

Mark, not sure Paul should have to wait, since he won't be back in until next month. Probably should just mail his.

[nuhuskers]

I'm in and have no issues with waiting on shipping.

[geschrocks33]

So Mark, with everyone waiting, whats the budget I should use for groupings? That way we can actually decide on some products ASAP

[northicehero99]

My guess would be $280-290 leaving $20-10 for supplies if he needs them (that already is removing $1 per payment in paypal fees or $25 per member less supplies).
