Derrick suggested the DA Combo deal of

08-09 SPx
08-09 SPGU
08-09 Artifacts

All 3 for $270, and then hopefully a $50 box from 06-07 or 07-08, maybe like 06-07 BTP? To switch it up a bit

So here's my first option

08-09 SPx
08-09 SPGU
08-09 Artifacts
$270
06-07 BTP $48
Total: $318




That combo deal seems like a good price just not sure if that will be available for when Bill gets all the payments since we have to find a few extra members. Seems like a good price though since SPx is $80 and SPGU is $132 on Blowout and they do not have Artifacts which runs in the $65 range.

I looked for other $50 products and came up with this combination:
08-09 SPx 5 gu hits (1 of them au rc)
08-09 SPGU 6 hits (1 auto?)
08-09 Artifacts 3 hits (possible auto)
$270 for 14 hits

06-07 BAP $52 8 au hits

Total $322 for 22 hits

Anyone else want to add some other box options?

I'm in for the Bruins (sorry for the delay, just got back from Montreal)

Thanks for letting me in!

I'm back this month, but payment wont be sent until the 15th.

Mike

OK I will add you in.

Payment sent

Transactions for last month will be made momentarily and cards will be shipped out next Tuesday AM.

Also, I will be out of town this weekend so I will update payments Sunday evening.

Take care all!

-Bill

Mike, lets give it a few more days for the other member I pm'd to see if he replies, if not then that is fine as I think we have exhausted the waitlist.

Ive had bad luck thus far but im in and payment sent.

I like this
08-09 SPx 5 gu hits (1 of them au rc)
08-09 SPGU 6 hits (1 auto?)
08-09 Artifacts 3 hits (possible auto)
$270 for 14 hits

Then maybe with the left over if there is any we could get one or 2 of the following

2006/07 In The Game Heroes & Prospects Hockey Hobby Box est price 30.00

2006/07 Upper Deck Beehive Hockey Hobby Box est. price 33.00

2006/07 Fleer Flair Showcase Hockey Hobby Box (UD) 30.00

2007/08 In The Game O Canada Hockey Hobby Box 30.00

2007/08 In The Game Between the Pipes Hockey Hobby Box 50.00

2005/06 Upper Deck Parkhurst Hockey Hobby Box 50.00



I am just very anti BAP and rather try some different stuff.

i like this, but i am with whatever is cool with everyone.

doug

On the BAP, I just included it to give us a good number of hits for the price of some of the others. The extra 8 hits gives us 22 hits, that way most of us will get something for the price. But the spreading out of hits varies from month to month.

Of the above choices, Beehive is not liked because of the oversized cards (even though this is one of my favorite sets and I just purchased two boxes on ebay at $25 each with no shipping yesterday). On the 05-6 Parkhurst, just not enough return in that product for $50 as you are guaranteed only 1 auto and a 1 in 12 chance at the multi game used.

We have done a lot of these other products previous, but I am not opposed to revisiting them. It is nice to mix things up.

Just checked out DA and not showing that combo deal anymore. Which means we would be paying the full box prices which is a tad bit more.

08-09 SPx 5 gu hits (1 of them au rc) $86
08-09 SPGU 6 hits (1 auto?) $133
08-09 Artifacts 3 hits (possible auto) $63
For a total of $282 only $12 more but does really limit what we could add.

Could still add these to that grouping though:
08-09 Black Diamond $51 2 gu 4 rcs 1 auto poss.
TOTAL $333 ($8 over budget)

08-09 UD S1 $53 2 gu 6 YGs
TOTAL $335 ($10 over budget)

It is up to Bill if he can afford to go that far over budget, since our box budget is $325 normally, since the remainder covers postage, supplies, paypal fees.

Some other options I was looking at:

08-9 Trilogy $119 3 gu 3 au 3 rcs
08-9 Black Diamond $ 51 2 gu 4 rcs
08-9 SPx $ 86 5 gu incl rcs
06-7 BAP $ 52 8 autos 1-2 rcs
TOTAL $308 21 gu/au approx. 8 rcs


07-8 Trilogy $135 3 gu 3 au 3 rcs
08-9 Black Diamond $ 51 2 gu 4 rcs
08-9 SPx $ 86 5 gu incl rcs
06-7 BAP $ 52 8 autos 1-2 rcs
TOTAL $324 21 gu/au approx. 8 rcs


06-7 BAP $ 52 8 autos 1-2 rcs
08-9 Artifacts $ 63 3 gu poss auto 1-2 rcs
08-9 Masterpeices $ 68 2 gu 2 au
08-9 SPx $ 86 5 gu
08-9 Black Diamond $ 51 2 gu 1 au poss. 4 rcs
TOTAL $320 22 hits approx. 6-8 rcs excl. SPx hits


08-9 UD S1 $ 53 2 gu 6 YGs
08-9 Artifacts $ 63 3 gu poss auto 1-2 rcs
08-9 Masterpeices $ 68 2 gu 2 au
08-9 SPx $ 86 5 gu
08-9 Black Diamond $ 51 2 gu 1 au poss. 4 rcs
TOTAL $321 16 hits approx. 12 rcs excl. SPx hits

07-8 Trilogy $135 3 gu 3 au 3 rcs
08-9 Black Diamond $ 51 2 gu 4 rcs
08-9 SPx $ 86 5 gu incl rcs
06-7 BAP $ 52 8 autos 1-2 rcs
TOTAL $324 21 gu/au approx. 8 rcs

i like this one!!

All nice options but BAP Autos just do nothing for me I know they are hits but they usually are not numbered and hold little value unless you hit an elite player.

Why not

08-09 SPx 5 gu hits (1 of them au rc) $86
08-09 SPGU 6 hits (1 auto?) $133
08-09 Artifacts 3 hits (possible auto) $63
Plus One of These
2006/07 In The Game Heroes & Prospects Hockey Hobby Box est price 30.00

2006/07 Upper Deck Beehive Hockey Hobby Box est. price 33.00

2006/07 Fleer Flair Showcase Hockey Hobby Box (UD) 30.00

2007/08 In The Game O Canada Hockey Hobby Box 30.00

Sure it be a few less hits but it be nice to see some different stuff. I know Beehive can be hard to ship but it sweet stuff as you have noted. Fleer Flair Showcase is pretty cool stuff to nice base and decent hits it would be my choice for the 4th box.

Just wanted to mention that BAP has numbered auto versions as I got these autos Lecavalier #/25 (my box), a Khabibulin #/10 (group break). Think I have another as well. Was thinking of this also for some different rookies for those teams like the Pens, Bruins, Canadiens, and Kings.

I just listed those options due to the combo being done on DA and those just seemed to fit. Does not matter to me what we open as long as we do it soon.

word

I just perfer to do something other then BAP and yes the sooner the better!!

Bill,

I'll be keeping my spot this month and my payment was just sent via PayPal.

-Bob

Congrads to all the Pens fans here im not one but love some of your players and was pulling for you guys them tonight!!

Now lets hope Buffalo wins one soon or ever

Boo hissssss!

I'd like to see some SPA back into the mix this month maybe, but whatever the group likes is fine with me.

Bill I don't know if I'll be able to send payment by tomorrow, but it will be sent soon

payment sent for my two slots.

thanks,

doug

Payment sent.

Mike

Mike, I never got a reply to my pm to koufaxfan so if you want the last spot let Bill know or post here.

Some guy on another site is taking forever to reply to my PM. said he was going to buy my Drury SPx Flashback Fabrics Spectrum Patch /25 for $20 and I'm relying on that for this months break....I have $16.29 paypal, and I need the other $10 from that sale to pay...

if it turns out you are the last left to pay and you don't have it yet, I will cover you and you can just send to me.

doug

sent payment for one slot as I saidI can pick up the last one if needed

Thanks for the offer Doug

Anyone else have any opinions on box selection.

lets get this break moving along.

08-09 SPA - $100 (3 Autos, 2 RC's, Possible patch)
08-09 Artifacts - $63 (3 hits, possible auto)
08-09 BAP $93 (8 autos, 1 RC, possible rookie jersey
05-06 UD Series 2 - $58 (6 YG's, 2 GU)

Total $314

06-07 Hot Prospects - $57 (1 Patch Auto RC, 2 GU)
08-09 Trilogy - $120 (3 Auto's, 3 GU, 3 RC's)
07-08 SPA - $91 (3 Auto's, possible patch)
08-09 BD - $52 (4 RC's, 2 GU, possible auto

Total $320

There's two other options I came up with, to switch up the years, get something else besides 08-09 incorporated

Looks like it is needed. Unless anyone else wants to pick up the last slot.

Added total hits. Liked the second one more than the first, just wish there were more hits as the lower the number of hits the less to spread around.

If everyone could pick the one or two they like the best and post it would be appreciated. For those of you who do not care what we open, it would be helpful if you tossed in your vote as well. It does not matter to me what we open, but everyone should have an equal say. If I missed an option previously posted let me know and I can add it. I just cut and pasted a few from myself, derek4484, and geschrocks33.

i like option A and option H

thanks,

doug

Thanks for setting up the vote.

I would go with E and C

those would work, too


really anything that gets me another nice stamkos would work for me.


doug

Payment sent for extra slot...I'll take the Stars as my extra slot

Set it up. Bill will have to let us know whom he needs payment from.

Thanks to those who have voted. Anyone else want to weigh in?

Payment Sent.

Does Anyone else have any feelings to the box selections??

I'm pretty open, but I do share the belief that BAP is not a product that yields enough "nice" hits.
